Can't shake this virus, feel so crap

Not Covid, had several negative Lateral flows.
Symptoms since Monday include sore throat (mostly gone now), cough, foggy head, no energy. Coughing up a bit of gunk in the mornings 🤢, sinus pain.
I'm resting and drinking plenty of fluids, taking paracetamol, but I'm on day 7 now and just can't shake it off. We're going on holiday on Sat and I really want to be better by then!
Anyone else experiencing similar? Do you think it warrants a phone call to GP?

Poor you op, I had similar between April and beginning if June but all negative for Covid and only taking it easy helped :( will you still go on holiday?
I have a stomach bug now and feeling rotten, bloody typical to get one the first week of school holiday!

Thank you for your reply. Sorry to hear you've had similar, it's a nasty one for sure. I really hope we can have our holiday, it's a much needed family week away. I guess we will have to see how I feel towards the end of the week.
