Why must it get worse? I have a rash under my left breast (no, it isn't meningitis, I have checked) and a medium-severe pain in about the same place which makes it hell to breathe, cough etc. I feel like there's something stuck in my throat which makes swallowing unpleasant, and I'm hoarse and sore and tired and hot and nauseous.

WHY? Does someone think I haven't had enough of this yet? When am I allowed to actually GET BETTER? What did I do?

It's the rash that makes me think 'eep', because it's not something you usually (ever, as far as I know) get with flu, or even things that flu can develop into easily. And you've been ill how long now? More than a week - flu (by itself) should be buggering off by now. If the rash is still there tomorrow call NHS direct, at least, and see what they say.

What does the rash look like, and what shape is it? Is it sore when you touch it?

it is a conglomeration of reddish blotches and spots, roughly circular overall, about the size of the palm of my hand, and centred on the crease under my left breast. I have been sitting about in loose PJs and no bra, and it's entirely on the bits of skin which rest together when I do that. it doesn't hurt if I touch it but if I *rub* it it's a bit sore. the area in general hurts constantly; a dull ache if I sit still, sharper pains if I cough or move or breathe.
