I have had. a stinking cold for the last week, blocked sinuses, headache, feeling exhausted, aching muscles and a continuous cough. I've tested daily and definitely not COVID (MIL in a care home and they ask visitors to test. We were planning to visit this weekend).
Most of the symptoms I can just about cope with bit the cough is driving me insane. I'm asthmatic so my asthma is worse anyway as this is what feels like cold no 572 of the year. Between the constant coughing and the middle of the night asthma attacks I'm going mad. I'm getting a couple of hours broken sleep, my throat is raw and I have no voice.
I'm going to message my docs again as according to my watch my pulse ox is dropping to 90/91 and ask for some steroids but does anyone have any tips for sleeping with this bloody thing? Or how to soothe it?
I've been told I have low vit D which I'm taking a supplement for so fingers crossed that helps with the constant infections.
