My daughter has swine flu

busybee29, 24 July, 2009 at 12:41 Posted on Planning 0 3

Hi all

My daughter is poorly, she has the cough, temp, sore throat and headache. I went on NHS direct to make sure i was doing i was meant to be doing, i filled out a questionaire and within 5 minutes i had an authorisation code to go collect Tamiflu.

I called my gp for advice i wasnt happy to give it to her without her say so and she told me she would not have given it to her if she had seen her in person and that i was doing the right thing making her rest, drinking lots and giving her pain relief.

Its scary you can get the medicine that easily. I work with a girl who just needs to sneeze to think she has phenmonia what stops people like her taking meds they dont need.

She has been fast asleep in my bed for the past 2 hours but i still keep running up and down the stairs checking on her and taking her temp.

Guess i will have to amuse myself hitching!

    I hope your daughter is feeling better soon, keep her tucked up and lots of fluids. I'm on my last day of tamiflu and starting to feel almost normal again! I really thought that they would just tell me to get some rest etc. but they immediately gave me a prescription. Its pretty horrible stuff aswell, and has made me fell quite sick if I don't take it with a big meal. I wish I had someone running checking on me my OH couldn't get out the door quick enough this morning!

    Oh poor you! Mr Bee is really good when im ill but i get really annoyed by ill people so he doesnt get looked after in return lol.

    Normally when she is ill she wants to cuddle up on the sofa and watch tv but she just wanted to sleep so must be feeling poorly.

    Hope you feel better soon ?
