At least you didn't say you had the "flu" when it's just a cold

If I have eight or more pints of an evening I've started to get nasal congestion the next day, its getting so annoying especially at work, that I'm having to go onto shorts sooner than planned.

I am not sure what I have...Seemed like a bad cold at first, but its not. Just have body aches, not a sore throat but its does feel uncomfortable, but not sore, hard to explain as I can't think of the right word, my head feels like it wan't to explode, and my right eye hurts around socket, feels like I was punched but since I wasn't punched not sure why it hurts so badly, and I just feel like crap, and have a small fever.

Saw a walk in doctor yesterday, said my ears appear a bit irritated but doesn't see an infection, had no idea about the eye pain, even brought in another doctor to look, can't see anything that would be causing the pain. Said to wait 3-4 days and if it still hurts go to the ER to have it looked at again.

There are an assortment of mutant gluten intolerant posters on here who will no doubt take you in and comfort you. I tried a special beer they make for those people when a rep brought it around to the bar and it was seriously vile.

I prefer a drop of lager myself as I can't stand all that poncy microbrewery bollocks but it seems that the Stella type beers are the worst offenders.
