I am taking tamiflu - swine flu!

I want to share my experience...On friday early evening my chest felt tight. My ex. who had called to collect our children, they were staying over at their dads that evening, made me a hot water bottle and I put it in the middle of my chest (cleveage area) which is where it felt tight and painful when I breathed in and out or spoke. I went to bed feeling chilled. I don't really remember the next couple of days except for being too knackered (excuse my frank description) to move or get up or even go for a wee. Just to lift my head off the pillow (which killed me, the worst headache ever)was an effort, I ached everywhere and my throat was really sore. I couldn't be bothered to answer texts or calls or wash or anything for the next couple of days. I wish I had had the energy to get up and get a drink, but I didn't. The one and only call I made was to my ex. and from there on he took charge. He wouldn't come in the house, on advice from the GP, or let our children anywhere near and I was put in quarenteen by the GP. On the Monday I was given tamiflu which he collected and passed through the window. I thought tamiflu had done the trick and Tuesday I felt as though there was improvement, I was out of bed. But today, I feel tired...really tired...the sore throat is back, I'm nasely and my head kills and I am so knackered...I am eating because my ex brings it and passes it to me through the window...but I don't fancy food...I am drinking lots but really don't have any clue as to if I am recovering. There are no tests being done for swine flu, so I don't know if I have it or not ...no one will know for sure without the test...my ex is telephoning the GP at the weekend as I will have finished the tamiflu. I have panicked a couple of times as my chest still feels tight and that worries/frightens me, but I am trying to remain optimistic that perhaps its just normal flu, and even if its swine flu, I'm otherwise a completely healthy person. Am signing off now cos I'm shattered and just want to lie still and get some rest. Hope anyone else out there is helped in some way. Will log on again.
