Have any other IIS'ers suffered from Ross River virus??

It's made me feel like crap and extremely grumpy, only started coming good in the past week. And of course it never goes away once you've got it, can come back at any time.

Cheers,

Justin.

Yes, I got it about 20 years ago. Terribly fatigued constantly, irritable. Lasted about a month. Got a repeat attack a couple years after that, and a smaller recurrence last year.

Not pleasant at all.

Thanks Laurie!

Yep nasty!



Hi Lewis,

Yes been about a month for me too, the fatigue is the worst, nothing left at the end of the day after working.

Cheers,

Justin.

I was wondering why you were so quiet Justin, I just put it down to the lack of Comets in the sky :D Get well soon mate, take it easy. I guess you didn't see the meteor lastnight then? I missed it too :(

I was out on the two previous nights, last night we had a guest staying so didn't get out.

Cheers,

Justin.

It sounds like a real bugger Justin.

Glad to hear your starting to get better.

Got Ross River about 20 years ago. Felt like I was walking on cotton wool and my feet and all other joints were bloody sore for about 2 months. You never fully recover from Ross River. I still get minor bouts at least once a year.
