Awake!!! with a Viral Head Cold - Anyone Else ?
Ask a Question
Iβve caught a bad cold 3 days ago and itβs doing my head in,itβs not man flu as Iβm female. I know of 4 folk that have just got it too,it seems to be doing the rounds 
excuse me while I blow my nose off and eat another pack of Jakemans 
Good morning smallbike1961 Did you manage to get any sleep in? It's that time of year where all these nasty illnesses come around. I've heard that Norovirus might be really bad this year.
It's definitely not man flu that you've got. You'd know straight away if you did as it's worse than childbirth 
Get better soon.
I was up most of the night but because of my little one she's got hand foot and mouth and the coughing has started now 
hope your feeling better soon
Leannexxx Sorry to hear this,nothing worse than a sick child and no sleep for anyone,hope shes well real soon 
Yeah I had it a few weeks ago and so one if the kids. It's horrible. We ended up having time off work and school cos of it
Not a cold but husband and dad I think have just had same 24 hr stomach bug. I think the same as symptoms were identical though they have not been in contact with each other. I think husband picked up from work and dad from garden centre cafe. This is time of year where it gets colder and the heating goes on where more people circulate inside meaning itβs easy for germs to spread. Luckily I havenβt had it but that might be because Iβm a germ phobe and donβt touch anything with bare hands unless I can thoroughly wash them frequently.
JLouM Thatβs awful for them,hope their all better real soon,Iβm doing ok,Iβve had much worse than a cold,just having a moan cause tiredness 
smallbike1961 They are much better now thank you. Itβs still miserable to have a cold though. Hope you feel better too.
Yes I've got another cold, barely slept all night, feel terrible today, still did remembrance day though, off to bed for a bit now, I won't sleep, I just can't get warm today
smallbike1961 feeling a bit better thanks, it's the cough that's gotten worse over the weekend, I've got a dr's appointment today
Just getting over the cold, the past couple of nights I have woke at 3am with a pounding hear and itβs lasted alday.

smallbike1961 afraid not, I have no voice today. Hoping it comes back soon. I hope your better today.

smallbike1961 this happens all the time. Hahaha I think mine is but heβs just not saying. Thankyou
My Partner has Man Flu, can't seem to shake it off, had it for a week or so..Fuzzy Head
janphoenix51 Sorry to hear that,itβs not good,hope it clears soon for him,mines is actually a bit better this morning,I slept 
I thought I was getting something, had a hot lemsip, next day I was fine but that evening came back again another lemsip and now Iβm fine.
eyeballkerry Thatβs how mines started then wouldnβt leave eventually ,hopefully yours will come to nothing but it looks like Iβm defo not on my own with this cold
smallbike1961 I was a plane the other day and someone behind had an awful cough and I thought I would definitely pick up something.
eyeballkerry Oh Definitely will pick it up on planes,they are the worst,hate when I hear loud coughing on them,I just know the passengers are doomed to a cold or worse
Oh no that doesn't sound good, lets hope you start to feel better soon, fingers crossed.
I had a sniffle a few days ago during the night but I'm taking a high strength vitamin C pill each morning plus Vitamin D3 and K2 pills about 20,000 IU so I'm hoping to have some resistance to the winter bugs and the sniffle had gone by the morning. Zinc and magnesium are also very good for the winter months. If you don't like pills eat plenty of salads and fish.
BonzoBanana My partner takes the same & I could not tell you the last time he had a bug. Never catches anything.
Oh no, sorry 
to hear that you are not feeling well I hate getting ill as it takes me about two weeks I think to recover!β¦ try to drink more water and eat some fruits 
too hope you get better 
soon!
kitty88uk Thank you,Iβm at least on my feet now,thinking it was a bit more than a cold,I have bad health history,doesnβt help,I hate being Iβll too
smallbike1961 you are welcome 
oh is that so, Iβm sorry to hear that, how long does it take for you to recover from a cold?
There's a few about. My sons just getting over a chest cold & iv had a side throat and sniffles. Unfortunately it's just that time of year. Hope you feel better soon.
