Ooh lovely comments!
MCI you are a glutton for punishment!
Ed you can catch it twice. It wasn't confined to one side which is why I thought chickenpox. A real blustery rash.
Long story short, flu ISH symptoms turned to a terrible bad back turned to sciatica. What an old friend. I worked through it because I didn't twig that I could have something contagious until after it was no longer contagious, IYSWIM?0 -
Got interrupted having to text a parent directions. Sleepover for 15 year olds!!
Better now but sciatica pain is exhausting. Like someone's maiden aunt! eta Joyce Grenfell style. Not dissing maidens. Or aunts.0 -
