    no didn't have the flu jab :( i don't believe in vaccanations :roll: so i suppose i have no right to moan, never had this before though, when people say oh i have flu and they are walking about sniffling i beg to differ, because when you have flu believe me you cannot get up out of that bed, at least i am feeling a bit better now, to talk to peeps :) hope none of you get it.

    I believe in anything going especially if it's going to make my life a bit easier - I couldn't suffer for any principles, I live with too much pain. It's either that or I'm just a cheap, bring it on and I'll try it sort of gal :wink::lol::lol:

    Hi,

    I'd like to add my sympathy too - it sounds awful. From what you say it sounds as though you have gastric 'flu - is this right? If so, would just like to say that I was told at the surgery that the 'flu jab doesn't protect against gastric 'flu. Hope you recover soon. Best wishes Diane.
