I know you guys are not medical people but just wondering of people's experiences as it might help me know what could be going on.
I've just woke up, I went to lie down as I was really tired. I'm not at work today. I've just got over a skin infection nearly 4 weeks ago. On Friday the skin looked red and I called the doctor. She has written antibiotics for me but didn't think I needed them and said if it were her, she wouldn't take them unless she felt unwell or unless the redness was much deeper (I know the signs). She said if anything develops it would be in 24 hours, well that was Friday evening.
I've been fine all weekend and the redness went down.
Today I woke up fine, a bit stressed as I had to cancel some work that would involve a lot of walking about (this is on my foot), but it was fine.
So suddenly I had no energy (that's not unusual) and I went to lie down thinking that my foot could do with the rest anyway. When I woke up I felt a bit off, and a few minutes ago I broke out in a sweat and went really hot. I also felt weak like I had flu. In 5 minutes that calmed down. My temperature is normal, although I thought it would be high.
So now I'm wondering if it was the extra glob of ovestin I tried out last night, and was that a hot flush? I had a hot flush after trying it the first time but that was pretty instant. Could it have led me to feel a bit wobbly and anxious?
I'm feeling less off now, a bit of a quivery feeling in the legs, and I'm monitoring my temperature as if it's high I'll have to take the antibiotics regardless. I don't want to if I don't have to. This would all happen when the doctor's is closed.
