Horrible Cold Virus

[BC2603]

Hi all

Currently have a horrible cold. Sore throat, cough, runny nose - generally feeling really run down 😥 Not Covid as have tested

Im also 10 weeks pg. Is there anything I can take to help ease the symptoms?

TIA

Best thing to do is go to your local pharmacy and see what they can provide. I was able to take some cold
and flu medicines based on their advice!

I'm the same, have been off work since Wednesday feeling absolutely awful, due back tomorrow and still not feeling great 😫 I've only taken paracetamol when my head has been really sore, and I've been doing steams over a bowl of boiling water twice every day, sometimes with vicks added in...its so miserable so I feel for you. Hope it eases for you soon

Paracetamol

I had a horrible flu bug at 10 weeks so can sympathise. Co-incided with my first midwife appointment she said paracetamol, lots of fluids and rest so unfortunately no miracle cure. I'm never off work and had to take 4 days sick..on the plus side I'm 24 weeks now and have had no illness since.

Thanks all! I feel horrific! Currently been in bed since 4:30pm yesterday. Paracetamol isn’t even touching the headache I have so can see me just not moving today.
