ninja Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Hi All Just wondering if any of you seem to catch all bugs going since their SAH. I appear to catch every infection or ailment going and I'm sure this was not the case before my SAH. My body seems unable to avoid any coughs or colds that are flying about and since my bleed I have become diabetic and have quite bad spinal arthritis. Perhaps its just my age or is it down to my grey matter rebelling? Cheers John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janet Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 I can emphasise with you John I also seem to get most bugs doing the rounds and to add insult to injury it takes longer to get over anything. Hope everything is going well for you at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anne Fleming Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Hi John I'm not sure I have more bugs etc than before (maybe) but when I do take the cold or virus it takes far more out of me and much longer to recover. It makes my fatigue much worse. I'm hoping this will improve in time. Take care Best wishes Anne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liz D Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Hi John I haven't found any difference, I hardly ever caught a cold or bug and haven't had one yet since my SAH (touch wood!). But your body's having to deal with a lot and it must compromise your immune system. I hope you feel better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
