I went down with a heavy cold on Boxing Day. Started with sore throat, then cough, streaming nose, aching (no temp though), and lay in bed all 27th and 28th. Not fun but that's life, my DP and lots of friends/colleagues had something similar.
Was gradually getting better, still coughing chestily on and off but in a sort of last-ditch clearing gunk sort of way, not particularly bothersome. Till today when I have been unable to stop coughing since 7 am, it's nearly been making me vomit. Feel shivery and think I'm running a slight temperature. Head aches.
Has anyone else had a bug that's come back with a vengeance like this - is this normal? I suspect there's not much point going to the GP, or am I wrong?
Thanks and hope everyone else suffering gets better soon!
