Flu Like Skin Sensitivity

[deavonnie]

I'm 6 weeks, and the past 2-3 days I have had severe skin sensitivity like when you have the flu, everything hurts to touch and clothes being on is even irritating, the only thing that seems to help is forcing myself to sleep it off... I have absolutely no appetite and my eyes hurt when I move them around like I am stretching ligaments... is this normal? Is this just common symptoms or could I be coming down with something, I haven't told my work yet (I just started working there and this pregnancy was not planned... on top of it my new boss has been trying to get pregnant for almost a year now and constantly talks about how she is not pregnant) and I have no idea how I am going to hide this from them come tomorrow afternoon (it seems to hit me around 11am and last into the evening).Anyone have any ideas?????

Actually pregnant women are usually supposed to get a flu vaccine! But again I'd talk to your Dr instead of just going to a pharmacy. I too have been having similar symptoms today. It's just the left side of my face and eye that feels super sensitive and almost painful.

I would go to the doctor and discuss your symptoms and getting a flu shot, don't just run to the pharmacy abd get one. They usually don't recommend pregnant women receive them.

Call the doctor and go in for an appt. and I would also go and get a flu shot ASAP.
