So I'm waiting at the doctors to get a medical certificate for work and I just think the process is silly. The last thing I wanted to do today is drive around and be in public when I'm sick, ugh.

Pharmacists are permitted to write such a certificate I believe.

I'm a pharmacist > Now I know why I keep up my registration :P

Oh wait, whilst I put on my mask won't you?

*cough

Can I extend on your analogy and place a trampoline behind said beehive?

Mind you, I'm allergic to amoxicillin penicillin and pretty much any other derivative...I'd rather have ill than illin!

So I've now been sick for two weeks. I finished my antibiotics on Monday. I felt fine on Monday after having the previous week off, so I returned to work. I then started feeling unwell again Tuesday evening. I barely made it through work yesterday and I'm off work today. I don't know what's wrong, flu symptoms with a very chesty cough and a mad headache. I'm catching a plane tomorrow so really don't want to be feeling like this :(

Hope it's temporary.

Normally September is past flu season but doctors think there's a repeat set.

I think though that once the westerly winds start up any day now (in Sydney at least) flus will be done and dusted.

What are your current symptoms and are they noticeably different from the first few days of the flu'?

For instance, are you still running a fever, lower respiratory tract infection, is the phlegm productive...?

Current symptoms are continuous runny nose and even when I blow it's still runny, yellowy mucus, throaty cough, but I am coughing less, feeling lethargic and my voice sounds nasaly. People commented at work that I sound sick.

I had all these symptoms during my first few days of the flu, but I also had a sore throat and I lost my voice for a few days. The main symptom I had during the first few days was painful body aches all over. I also had constant hot/cold sweats and shivering, whereas now I just feel a little hot in the face / forehead.

    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
    • I'm interested,do you still have it?
