Anyone else very sick possibly new Covid?

Initially thought I had a cold and cough, normal for this time of year. But it's gone on for a long while now. Flu symptoms, headache, endless coughing, eyeballs are burning. Added joy of being mature of age, every cough is accompanied by a "small wee". Anyone else the same?

I thought I had a bit of a cold, definitely not as bad as flu which Covid was on the two occasions I've definitely had it, so didn't do a Covid test
3 weeks later I'm still coughing....

Yup, it’s been over 2 weeks now. I wasn’t as sick as the last 2 times I had covid so I ploughed on wfh, but the past few days I’ve felt like death - no energy, swollen glands, sore throat… it doesn’t seem to be going anywhere even though I’ve been testing negative for nearly a week.

I am like this now. Think I picked something up at a baby group. Feel terrible, started with a sore throat and now flu like symptoms for over week. DD is getting plenty of independent play practice. She is currently babbling to herself and hitting a cardboard box with a wooden spoon, very content and oblivious to mummy's suffering!

I think the weird burning eyes and headache are VERY covid-specific, rather than just a cold! Hope you feel better soon.
