Has anyone else recently had a nasty cold.. sore throat, sneezing and runny nose mainly (with conjunctivitis aswell)!!
And then got over it, and couple days later the fucker comes back with a vengeance!!??
This has happened to both me and DH

Not covid. Both have tested at different times

I had something like this last year. I'm well now so I think these bugs do end up tampering off. For me it was about a solid three months of constant illness.

Yep! Since November. Still a Novid tho- never had it, constantly testing tho.

Seriously I've never had anything like it it's crazy I don't know if it's the drastic weather changes or what but I just feel the last month I've pretty much been ill! Currently lying in bed with my nose pissing of snot! Ffs

I’m with you - I’ve had illness after illness ever since December. I manage to get rid of one cold and a few days later I’m down with the next one. I’m exhausted.

I can't ever remember being like this previously. Some real nasty viruses going about 😩
Get well soon all 🫶

Yes dd and I both had this! Bad cold that lasted, then about a week of being better and then a ‘new’ cold that seemed just like the previous one. Just coming out of it after months.

I've got this at the moment and been testing negative for covid. Slight runny nose, sore throat, then full head feeling, into conjunctivitis, into sinus headache and sore throat, gummy eye again and remaining sore throat, all over about 2 weeks! DH turned into cough and chest infection ( no eyes or throat involved and not coming up as covid either)

I tested positive for covid last night 🙄 so it's covid on top of just getting over that nasty virus last week 😩
