Woke up with my head pounding and the Panadol is taking forever to kick in.

You need anti inflammatorys mixed with panadol. Wash them down with a double hydralyte dissolvable.

Suffer for a few hours then have two pints or if at home a couple of long necks.

Dropped about 50kgs on my big toe.

Haven't had a drink in almost 3 years so having a couple of drinks is out of the question.

I once dropped a large can of cat food from the top supermarket shelf onto my big toe. Nearly passed out. Staff member nearby did a U-turn and disappeared when I yelled.

How's your toe?

See a doctor my friend.
Waking up with a non alcohol related head ache is a genuine medical concern

Sore. Heavily bruised. Not broken, thankfully. Did it whilst I was training. Finished the session modifying where applicable.

Nar, it is from the footy last night. I always wake up the next day with a headache.

 

[Madas]

So over being unwell - it’s like being on a flipping merry go round

Began with a sore throat and headache and now advanced to a chest infection - three weeks now

Faaarrkkk

I was sick as about a month ago , thought that would be it for a while

Started sneezing like mad yesterday
Bang
It’s on again

Bloody man Flu

Ok so how was I to know that getting smashed on Friday night till 3am then going and sitting at a freezing cold footy ground and getting wet the next day wasn’t a great idea

It's 2025's fault. This winter suuuucks.

I am generally pretty healthy. Usually have one maybe two colds a year and have plenty of sick leave built up.

This year, onto fourth bad cold/flu already. In terms of days spent coughing, sneezing, aches etc. I reckon I'm 4-5 times an average year.

Me too
I’m on 4 this year which is very rare

What’s going on ?

I did run myself into the ground a bit lately including a big night out ( rare for me )
The freezing wet weather doesn’t help

Damn I hate it
So much to do at work but I just can’t face it

 

[Xtreme]

I've had headaches and the like. But I've not had a cold/sore throat etc for 2 years now.

Previously I'd either get a standard cold a few times a year (Feb, April/May, July being the usual months). Some years it felt like I alternated between a head cold, throat infection or chest infection every 6 weeks.

I don't do anything different today eat and drink the same. Haven't even had my usual ear infection - normally get one when out in the rain without fail. Have been stuck in the rain plenty..... but haven't suffered for it yet.

 

[Dogs_R_Us]

Had something a few weeks ago, after years cold-free. Started with a raging sore throat that lasted one night, then a chesty cough started that was severe for 3-4 days but tapered off after about a week. Felt quite ok, no runny nose or feeling like death, quite odd really

 

[rocker_oz33]

Dropped about 50kgs on my big toe.

I broke my little toe running to the toilet cracked it on the door frame.
Might of had a few beers.

[rocker_oz33]

Much the same can be said about every other cause. However, I feel that fight MND day seems to avoid criticism because it involves footy and a footy identity. But other causes are not immune.

i totally understand where you're coming from. Ya know every day people ask how you doing when they see you, or call you. BUT do they REALLY mean it?
