Other Winter illnesses.

It seems the same winter coughs and colds as usual here. I’m on my second cold of the winter, courtesy of DGD. Most years I don’t have any colds at all so I feel I’ve been unlucky this year!

Nothing here I don’t usually get anything same this year.

Could just be the weather. It has been an exceptionally warm winter so we have generally kept fitter with improved immuns systems.

The only bug I have had, over Christmas, well predates Corona virus.

I had an odd cold in January. High temp, tracheitis and cough. No head cold. Hmmmm

We had that, Jane10! I felt as though I had a heavy cold but no runny/blocked nose or the other usual symptoms.

You’re in Scotland, aren’t you? Maybe it’s a special Scottish beastie!

My H and I are both under the weather. He came back from skiing on Sunday with the usual "flight flu" - a cold really. He has given me a sore throat which at 4 a.m. I was convinced was Covid-19. Still not sure but we are keeping ourselves to ourselves and not seeing family. No fever.

I’m just getting over a horrid cold/ flu type virus I have had for 3 weeks. Cough, aching limbs, sore throat, headache the works. Now much better though still a bit tired. Fingers crossed I don’t get Corona v on top of this one. I blame GC who has started nursery and has had one bug after another.

We had a horrific flu type bug over Christmas and the New Year. Totally washed us out for weeks afterwards.
