Dreadful headache

I have had a dull headache for 4/5 days but today it’s turned into an awful migraine like headache. I feel nauseous but assuming that’s the headache. Over the past week or two I have had sciatica type pain in my lower back and down both legs and my neck has hurt. My temperature is 36 degrees. I had a thickly throat and cough a few times twice today because of that. I have no idea if this is the virus.

Tickly not thickly

I've had thick head for a week, and feeling achey and lethargic. I'm fine to work and function. No cough, no fever so assuming something else? It's a weird one though

I get chronic migraine which makes me feel awful, hot and sick. Also my meds can complicate covid-19 so need to stay off them. Hard to know really and worrying.

A few weeks ago I had a light repeated pathetic cough , turned yellow, had an agonising middle/top headache and sore throat and ended up on anti biotics for a chest infection. Couldn't move my head. I wonder if I had it ? Was so ill dh almost took me to a and e was a few days after being on packed transport

Maybe a headache is part of it?

Dummy you say that. I had sinus issues about two weeks ago but ever since I’ve had a really thick head. It’s not a headache as such but my head feels full, and throbbing, and I can hear blood rushing in my ears all the time. The last couple of days I’ve had very lower back ache. No other symptoms.

Funny not dummy!*

I have had this ! Not sure if a bug or stress from worrying about virus!

I have been having very bad headaches daily for approximately 3 weeks. A mild non productive cough, some mild sneezing and a feeling like blocked sinuses. I also feel very tired and its an effort to get out of my bed. My son is suffering with severe headaches for last 2 weeks, mild non productive cough, occasional bouts of sneezing and loss of appetite. Neither of us has had a fever at any stage. I would ordinarily put it down to a cold, but the persistent headaches are very unusual and not something myself of son have every experienced before.

I do get migraines but normally with visual issues too. I would also normally assume that my neck hurting will be causing the headaches. Nothing I have done to try to alleviate this headache has worked today and I don’t know if I should stay away from work tomorrow! I work across two schools, one being an SEN with vulnerable children.
