Anyone else ill with the non covid virus?

[Bennetgirl]

I feel bloody awful. Hot and cold, banging headache, sneezing, runny nose and cough. I’ve had a negative pcr. Been ill since Sunday.

35 weeks now and could really do with a hot lemsip! Has anyone found anything we can safely have that makes you feel a bit better?

I had this a couple of weeks ago... it was awful. The only relief I got (as I had bad sinus pain) was some Vicks melted in some hot water to inhale with a towel over my head!

Sorry you're feeling poorly

Also feeling awful! I'm 24 weeks and bed ridden with the worst cold I've ever had
I hope we both feel better soon

I’ve got some Vicks somewhere, I’ll find it as that’s a great idea.

I hope you feel better too 💐

I’ve got a consultant appointment tomorrow. I’m guessing I can still go as I’m negative and will wear a mask, anti bac etc?

@Bennetgirl yes try the Vicks... I hadn't used it in years but it's the only thing the pharmacist would let me have!

Same boat right now, luckily coming to the end of it now. I also just used Vicks, spicy food, hot showers and hot lemon water to get through it. I think technically you can use other stuff as well but I was too scared to and I figured the only thing that was really going to get me over it was my immune system kicking in... all the other drugs and remedies are just bandaids. And lots of soup and naps in the day to make up for all the sleep I wasn't getting at night! Good luck... it will be gone soon :)

I was feeling better yesterday but last night was awful. I feel worse today. Swallowing razor blades and generally awful.

I hate to think what covid could be like 😩
