Hi all
I always find it takes a while for a cold/virus to fully take hold. Does this happen to others too?
For example last Thursday I had a terrible banging headache, along with nausea and generally felt like crap. I’ve been extra tired ever since, but then today I’ve had the same feeling of general illness along with a sore throat. In another few days I expect to have fully come down with whatever this is.
It always feels like my body thinks it’s fought the illness off, but it just never does quite enough. This results in an extra 7-10 days of feeling run down before I actually become visibly/audibly sick. Wondering if this was just me?
Interestingly I get ill much less since I’ve been on Azathioprine, in fact this will be the first time since I started taking it 13 months ago. Prior to that I was frequently poorly, and whenever I got ill no matter whether it was a virus or a tooth abscess, it would always send my Crohn’s into overdrive and I would be vomiting up even the tiniest sips of water for days on end.
Sincerely hoping that doesn’t happen this time [emoji40]
