I rarely get sick. Usually I get a cold once a year, if even that. I don't smoke, or drink and I walk like a maniac, normally 2 hours a day. In January I took up running again and ran 3 days a week for 4km. I'm 48 but have been taken for 35 due to pride in health and appearance. Then a month ago, I got the flu and was out for the count for 4.5 days with a severe fever. I couldn't believe how it had zapped my energy and it took another week and a half to get that back. I also became irritable and slightly depressed. Then just when I thought I was back and ready to go to the gym, I got a stomach bug with cramping which upset me for another 4 days. That was a week and a half ago. Yesterday I started getting common cold symptoms and today for sure, I know I have a cold. This is really worrying me. Why is it happening? I eat well. Advice please?
