Had a temp of 39.4 Mon night, but it's since come down to 37's...Back and neck/head ache and general tiredness. No cold symptons at all (no sore throat or runny nose).

 

What is it?

 

Am I gonna die? :o

Any rash?

 

That's what I was going to ask.

 

:gettin:

 

Meningitis? Sinus infection?

 

 

He's on line but not replying. Perhaps he's having a seizure at this moment???? :o

 

EDIT: Phew, he's okay. I was just about to get the 'yes, Gemmill' thread started.

I had a bad tooth last week which is healing (no pain)....Can't be that can it?

 

yes it could be. Funnily enough hubby has just had 3 awful days with tooth problems. Our mate who's a dentist opened his surgery for him Monday night and hubby was there until midnight! Turned out he had a nasty infection high up above the teeth roots. The dentist cleaned out as much as he could and put an antibiotic lining in and a temp filling. Hubby was in agony that night and all yesterday with pain in teeth, gums and awful heachache which went to the back of his neck too. He's on penicillin and Dihydrocodiene now. feeling slightly better today.

Sounds like influenza to me, people seem to get it confused with a bad cold a lot but in general proper flu doesn't give you a runny nose, plus flu feels a hell of a lot worse - I've only had it a couple of times that I can think of and it really lays you on your back, aches and delirium as I recall. Flu can be fatal if complications set in like pneumonia as well.

Parky, just thought, when you say you had a bad tooth but no pain. Is it a root filled tooth? Because often it could be infected and you wouldnt know because the nerves have already been removed.

Is usually caused by the high temperature. I had pneumonia this time last year, awful :o

This could be it, it has a temp filling and roots were done. I'm thinking it's infected and maybe got into the blood or summink...

 

Or it could be flu as armchair says...I don't want any more dentist bills ffs!!

 

Parky killed by tooth. :o

Go the the Dentist man! :o Hubby had a high temperature with his tooth/mouth infection too.

What you need is to be close friends with a dentist like we are :gettin:

At least if it is an infection they'll just give you a prescription for some anti-biotics and that'll be it, should be relatively cheap. From the point of view of having had both I'd much rather it was the infection, flu's just nasty.
