Any fever? Any signs of plugged ducts (I saw you were nursing). Maybe you are fighting off mastitis. Came to my mind only because I feel like *I* may be the last day or so.
Any ideas what this might be?
I have been *taking* the flu for about a month now- but it never really turns into a real flu.
Starting about 4-5 weeks ago I've had episodes of really bad body aches and pains, lasting all day, then severe shakes and chills (the first time I was SURE it was a flu), then I'm really exhausted but almost completely better by the next day. It's happened 4 times now.
I hate to go to a doctor, but I'm starting to worry. Thought maybe the wise women here would have some ideas.
Thanks!

You didn't have the flu shot, did you?
It sure sounds like the flu is trying to get a hold on you. Sometimes it does take several weeks.
I would start with the SA powd. and not stop until it is all over with.

No, not much of a fever (as far as I can tell by DH putting his wrist on my forehead!), but I hadn't thought of mastitis. There doesn't seem to be a problem there, but I'll keep checking.
We don't do vax's, so not the flu shot. I'm going to try the SA and see if it helps- thanks for the advice.
Anything to avoid the Doc!
