Hey man I am exactly the same!!! Its well weird.

I felt really ill for a week and had a massive headache and felt sore muscles, hot or cold flashes. And everyone seemed to really care and I even had girls flirting with me at work. I dont know if its a sympathetic approach or if I notice the signs more when I am sick or if it distracts me a bit off on how my mental/anxiety state is.

But yeah I know what your going through man.
