Well I went back and got a second opinion from one of my regular drs (same clinic). was HEAPS better. Checked heart, lungs, ears, throat, glands, sinuses, blood pressure! Told me to take the week off and also convinced me to take the AB's as much because of the range of symptoms and how long it's been going on. Also did range of blood tests to check in case it's related to anything else (thyroid, random BSL, folate etc). Much better! Interestingly woke up at 3am with thumping earache too and still feeling crap this morning - so DS is at family daycare, and mummy is gonna be lazy!!!

Thanks again!
