Is it just a common cold, or something more?!
Question: Is it just a common cold, or something more.?
I know, a lot of you are going to tell me to see the doctor, and I'm going to. But until then, I'm curious if anyone might know what is going on.
Friday (10/3) I started coming down with what felt like a head cold. I woke up early with a sore throat, and throughout the day I also started having a runny nose, and a slight cough (nothing serious). Since then, though, things have gotten progressively worse. My cough is almost constant, making it hard to do anything, really. My congestion is a bit back and forth overall. Sometimes it's fine - no runny nose, no stuffed up....other times it's awful, and I almost feel as though I can't breath. I've had an almost sickly feeling on and off as well, and early this morning (around 230) I did get sick, although I have had no fever at all.
I'm losing my mind over this, not to mention a lot of sleep. I've been taking naps in the afternoon (only and hour or so) to try and make up for what I'm losing at night, but it just isn't helping. Nothing I have taken is helping either. I've even tried chicken soup and spicy foods. It just won't break up.
So could it just be a very persistant cold, or might it be something more serious.? Like I said, I do plan on seeing my doctor, I'm just wondering if anyone might know... Thanks so much for any help.Health Question & Answer
