I've been very queasy today and now I'm achey - like I have the flu, but I don't *feel* sick. But I am sneezing... but I don't think I have a fever.
Given all the hype about pregnant women and the flu and getting early treatment, I'm not sure when I should call the dr. WDYT, wait until I'm full-on sick-sick, or just kind of sick?
Re: Don't want to be an alarmist, but should I call the dr?
I had the same thing where I was achey and tired for a day along with a scratchy throat and runny nose. By day 4 I was on antibiotics for an upper resperatory infection; but it clearly wasn't the flu -- I had no fever and the "aches" were minor.
I'd wait a day or two and see what happens. I think I got a little bit of a cold + a bacterial infection that took advantage of my lowered immune system. The runny nose and itchy throat were here for a few days after the antibiotics had cleared up my chest.
