my flat mate is constantly ill.at first we all had sympathy for her, but now no one is too bothered as everyday she complains she is ill. she has been to the uni doctor several times and they can seem to find out what is wrong. when i ask her what her symptoms are she simply replies that she feels really 'wobbly'!!this is going on for 6 months or so now.she has missed a lot of uni but she still manages to go out every night.i cant seem to figure out if she is genuinly ill or not!!!im really trying to help her but it just becomes annoying to hear her complaints everday.she was sayin to me she thinks she has glandular fever, but surely wouldnt the doctor pick up on it??!!

Maybe she has something like post-viral fatigue which is basically extreme tiredness and "wobbliness". I'm not trying to make a diagnosis, just the point that there are things that fit that description so don't immediately assume she's crying wolf.
I'm always ill too, and until recently the doctors couldn't find anything major wrong, but i haven't been out a night in months, cause i'm just too wiped out. the couple of times i tried i came home early, and was tucked up in my bed by 11, or vegged out in front of my TV, or here.
When you're stressed it can be easy to feel generally ill... well stress is an illness so it could just be her being stressed... if that makes sense
