should I bottle my beer?!
If i did decide to leave it till i'm feeling better? is it safe to leave in the FV? or is it likely to pick up off flavours in there?

Assuming you were using healthy yeast and have good sanitation procedures, then the beer can sit in the fermenter for a few weeks after fermentation completes. Wait until you are healthy.
A few alternative ways to start a siphon:
- Buy an auto-siphon - it's a racking cane inside of a long tube. Pump the cane twice and a siphon is started.
- Place racking cane in beer, fill sanitized tube with StarSan, connect one end of tube to cane, drop other end into bottling bucket (positioned lower than fermenter)
- Take a length of sanitized tubing, submerge all but one end in the beer, cover the other end with your sanitized thumb, place the end in your bottling bucket (positioned lower than fermenter). Siphon will start when you release your thumb.
Sucking on it?!? Come on, dude. Brew strong.
you should be good until you are ready. fermentation has stopped until you add the sugar to carbonate.
