Nervous I am sick :(

[TealGirl]

Saturday night I starting feeling sick with a cold, stuffy nose, ear aches and just feeling yucky, but It also may be allergies and because I was at my boyfriend's house that night which is surrounded by woods. (or maybe I am justifying and trying to convince myself I am fine. Now it is Tuesday and I have been taking Airborne and vitamins since Saturday, no stuffy nose, or ear aches (maybe every so often I will have discomfort) My head hurts and feels a little congested so I took a decongestant. I am starting to get nervous that this is going to lead to the flu or something. I am about to go to a 3 hour long class that I need to present in today. I also am scared I am going to be sick for this weekend which is my trip to Pitt, thur-sun. Timing would be horrible if I had a SV or something bad.

Nerves? Or am getting sick!?

sounds like allergies to me. drink plenty of water darl and you should be fine. not so much nerves but sounds like anxiety. i dont think you get the flu just a head cold maybe. no v* there. have fun this weekend

I think a lot of symptoms are from anxiety because I have calmed down and magically feel better? I hate getting nervous/anxious about nothing. My cold makes me think "oh no I am sick, will I V* do I have the flu?!" and then start to have those symptoms...

Ugh!

don't worry about having the flu. I have had it twice and never v*. It mainly respiratory problem like coughing and weakness. And don't worry about trips in the future, just take it day by day. Oh and I get the allergy thing, I have them BAD! but anyway whenever I get a cold I don't worry about v* because I figure its not in my stomach its congestion in my head have fun on your trip!
