What Are The Symptoms Of Viral Flu?

I have been experiencing mild headaches, dizziness, upset stomach, feeling nausea and nose bleeds. I feel dizzy when turning my head left or right or unstable at times. I also get a metallic taste in my mouth at times and swollen neck glands. I feel constantly tired and I've been feeling like this (on and off) since April 2012. I've had a few blood test because my doctor thought it was glandular fever, liver failure but it seems I don't have a satisfied answer, except viral flu

Hello,Welcome to the HCM
Brief answer..It is less likely that your symptoms are because of viral flu.
detailed answer...Since viral flu can cause flu like symptoms (running nose (watery not bloody),headache)but these remain for only few days not for years.
My opinion would be you should get checked by haematologist and neurologist.You may need CT scan of brain and some blood test e.g clotting factors after discussing with both doctors.
Hopefully my answer will be helpfull.
Regards,Dr.Maheshwari
