Anyone else have this headache virus thing?

I woke up in the night on friday with a slamming headache and couldn't get back to sleep. Felt achy, lethargic and headachy all day Saturday but not cough/temp/loss of taste.

I got tested for COVID on Sunday and it came back negative (am pretty confident I had done it right...I have very big tonsils so easy to swipe)

I now just have intermittent headaches, photophobia and aches. I keep thinking I am better than BAM they are back. No temperature

Any advice/experience?

I think it's atmospheric tbh. Its hot, humid and stormy. We're either sweating in shorts or its pissing down with rain, or both.

I had this while we were away by the coast last week and I was wondering if it was to do with the air pressure.
I had a terrible headache that came back for a couple of days and was just generally quite tired. I’m still pretty tired now actually and thinking of having a nap on my lunch break (perks of working from home)

Yep me, snotty and grotty in general, terrible toothache too!

Have you drink enough fluids? Personally I find that lots of fluids and to eat something salty (crisps!) sort out my headaches in this weather.
(Migraines are a totally different game plan)
