    Ok so like just when my period was finishing on like the last 2 days i became sick. I don't what it is though. But heres a list of symptoms and all that stuff

    *i started sneezing at first
    *my nose became stuffy
    *my throat was very little soar only lasted for one day but i barely felt anything (sometimes my throat gets soar but doesn't last long)
    *throughout the week my body started hurting a little. My feet and today my left arm hurts.
    *i have minor headaches. Not everyday but still have them
    *diarrhea
    *the first day i felt a little weak in the morning but then i got better
    *i also had a feeling as if i was going to vomit but i didn't
    *today my stomach hurts
    *also my right hip started hurting a couple of days ago
    *i also can't breath that well. it might be because i have a stuffy nose but.. still i need to take one deep breath.
    *i also have a feeling I'm getting better then i get worse then i get better and so on goes that roller coaster. i really don't know..

    so those are the symptoms. I don't know what it is. Swine flu? Cold? or just a regular flu or something... Please let me know asap. i want to get over this already. it'll be a week already tomorrow. I take medicine for my nose the minty smell thing you need to sniff and a nasal spray . So far they work well (but the nasal spray says not to use for more then three days but i still used it). Other then that i still get runny/stuffy nose (i don't need to sneeze anymore though).

    Also some of the symptoms started only like a couple of days later. Some last for only one day. they either go away or come back. So anything would be helpful.

    Thanks! (:

    It's a cold. Stay indoors, keep warm, drink water, eat hot soup, stay in the house. Standard stuff.
    Good luck

    It sounds like flu. Take paracetamol for your aches and pains, drink plenty of water to avoid dehydration, and if you can use some re-hydration sachets like Dioralyte, to help replace the fluid and salts lost from the diarrhoea. If your throat hurts use a local anaesthetic throat spray or lozenges. Do not continue to use the nasal spray, if you use it for too long it causes rebound congestion. It would be better to take over the counter sudafed tablets, if it is suitable for you to take, and steam inhalation with some olbas oil or menthol crystals. If you find it keeps recurring it might be an idea to take high dose vitamin C (1000mg) daily to help build up your defences. If your symptoms persist or get worse then contact your GP.
