I'm not feeling atall well, and in true TT tradiiton, I thought I'd avoid the doctors surgery, and instead simply ask the masses on Toytown, seeing as we probably know collectively more than any German doctor anyway. Seriously, the wind blowing in the wrong direction is a recognized illness here, how can you trust that sort of shit.
So, symptoms, since yesterday morning, chronological order:
Blurred vision here and there
Sensitivity to smell
Sensitivity to light
Lightheadedness
Mild diaorrhoea
Massive fatique
And today, all of the above, but I am now shivering alot, yet apparently feel warm to the touch.
Diagnosis?
No idea but take some
meditonsin and you'll be better in no time (see other thread I just started).

I think you may be ill.
You should have taken the meditonsin a couple days ago.
Maybe the flu.. Or the bird flu if you're especially lucky. You should probably lie down. (I kind of feel like Captain Obvious today..)

You need drugs. Lots and lots of drugs. And beer. drugs and beer.
And gaming. Drugs, beer and gaming.
And some Only Fools and Horses reruns
Oh! And those mini sausage rolls and possibly one of those Ginsters Breakfast Rolls or whatever they were. Bacon, eggs, sausage, covered in breadcrumbs and well well nice.

It's psychosomatic. Your subconscious feels revulsion for having inanely insulted drummers on the Led Zep thread and you are now feeling like shit. It's completely normal. Rest, drink plenty of warm liquids and admit that drummers and good drum solos are like, totally awesome, and you'll feel better in no time.

Blurred vision?
Could be dwarfism - it is one of the causes of blurred vision and eye abnormalities.
Went to med school, can you tell?

You've gone native, mate. Prob sat too close to an open window or saw one on TV. Shoot yourself now, it's the only way, a life lived in Birkenstocks is no way to be.
Glad to help pal.

I agree with the migraine diagnosis.
Go to your chemist ask for something called Formigraine. It doesn't require prescription, though it costs 10 yoyos.

I am definitely ill, I'm now sweating and shivering like a...erm...something that sweats and shivers, man. I probably should go home, but I always feel a bit guilty about that, because I seriously enjoy lying under a blanket watching moronic daytime telly, so I'd feel like I was skiving.
I forgot to mention probably the most serious symptom - last night on the way home, I purchased a bottle of powerade rather than a beer for the train journey. That symptom seems to suggest that I am suffering from serious gaylordness, but does not fit with the other symptoms.
Perplexing...

I would go with the flu diagnosis. Do not go to Lower Bavaria, they are culling ducks for the flu. Have someone cook some chicken soup for you, take one taste, spit it out and swear violently and at absurd length, then go make some yourself that is fit for human your consumption.
Or see a doctor. No, not just take a look at one passing by in a golf-cart, consult one and treat him like one of us: Either follow his advice or not.
I hope you feel better soon.

Call in on the Apotheke on your way home, there's a variety of revolting tea you can buy for any ailment. One cup and you won't feel you are skiving at all.

You've obviously caught the same virus that I've been suffering from for a week. Must be computer spread.
Sounds like flu. Go home, switch the telly on, take a bottle of water and jump into bed. Don't let yourself get dehydrated.

My diagnosis, which is almost always correct, says that you are suffering from a case of severe excess masturbation. The only cure for this is to proceed wholeheartedly with more self-pleasure.

Obviously you're going through the stage of "change of life", otherwise known as menopause... the symptoms will go away by themselves in a few years, hopefully

Mmmm. My bet is
Pufferfish poisoning-- also referred to as
fugu poisoning. *snicker*
Have you recently consumed pufferfish from the Indo-Pacific regions?
Some symptoms of fugu poisoning:
numbness of lips and tongue
numbness of face and extremities
sensations of lightness or floating
dizziness
headache
vomiting
abdominal pain
diarrhea
slurred speech
difficulty walking
extensive muscle weakness
Sounds like the typical morning after a particularly heavy drinking session, frankly. However, if you start to experience respiratory distress, convulsions or paralysis, you're pretty much doomed.

Sounds like you're turning into a krout, and a Bavarian one at that. Today is just the kind of glorioius weather where they all go staggering around clutching their heads and moaning "Ach, der Föhn, der Föhn". Sucking a Weisswurst might help.

Knowing just how easy it is to get fish in Munich, I doubt that it could even be sardine poisoning, let alone pufferfish.
