- Abstract
A 42 year old right handed joiner presented with a five day history of cough, fever, and aching muscles. He had previously enjoyed good health. Three days into his current illness he had attended his general practitioner and been prescribed ibuprofen, aspirin, and a "cold remedy." He had no history of recent overseas travel and other family members were well. Over the 48 hours before hospital admission he had become much weaker and was eventually unable to walk unsupported. He was admitted to his local hospital for investigation and treatment.
