Glandular Fever

Anyone else out there about to take exams with glandular fever? I've had it for a few months now and have just caught a heavy cold to go with it!

Urgh it's just ruining everything at the moment! I'm not able to do revision on school days cos I'm shattered when I get home and I've had to stop my driving lessons. Did you get a Dr's letter? x x x

Nope, the doctors didn't realise it had been glandular fever until I was getting over it. It can't have been a particularly bad bout of it though, because I just thought being sleepy in lessons was normal - I put it down to the stuffy classrooms :redface:

get your doctor to write a sick note thing and give it to your teacher. If you have lots of time off school/college because of glandular fever you get a perentage added to your marks. At least thats what my head of year said when i was doing my gcse's :smile:

Yes I've got my Dr's note but I haven't had any time off at all. He's just said that my revision has been affected. Oh well I guess it will all work out!

Right....I don't think I'll be able to stay awake for my afternoon exams. Dammit I should've seen if I could have done them in the morning and gone in isolation in the afternoon.

Thankyou

I had glandular fever in year 10 and it was damn crap. Kept falling to sleep in lesson, by the time I got in from school on a night I was in bed within an hour.
