That’s likely covid

Loads of colds and Covid about, I’ve just had a bad cold that started like this.

Do you normally suffer from hayfever? I don't normally get phlegmy, but my eyes as well as my nose stream when the pollen count climbs. Sounds more coldy than hayfevery.
The met office suggest the pollen count is no higher than medium across the UK today.
Hope you feel better soon.

Hay fever doesn’t normally result in a sore throat.

Hay fever doesn’t normally result in a sore throat.

Yes it can. My main hayfever symptom is a sore itchy throat. I don't really sneeze much

I've just started sneezing and my eyes are streaming. According to my pollen app, grass is moderate and mugwort high in my area.

Off to close windows and doors...

Sounds more like Covid. It's rife at the moment.

That's my main symptom too, together with inflamed eyelids diagnosed by the optician! I don't really get a runny nose or sneeze a lot.

Mine took a couple of days of symptoms before test showed positive (recently).

I had a cold like that a couple of weeks ago while I was on holiday, I suppose it could had been Covid but it panned out like a cold.
