Man Colds

Woke up yesterday with a graugy headache type of thing and not noro-level stomach issues but a little gurgly throughout the morning. Still had a headache last night but it's subsided this morning.
This has been me since Saturday. The headache seems to go away for a day only to come back the next day thing that is getting really irritating.
 
I've had an annoying cough since Thanksgiving.
Me too!

Tuesday-Thursday of Thanksgiving week I had a terrible sore throat & sinus drainage; felt lots better by Thanksgiving evening, but by the weekend a phlegmy cough had settled into my chest & it’s been dragging on ever since. It does improve a little every day but it’s annoying.

I never had the sore throat but the rest is spot on
 
My wife and I picked up colds while traveling these past few days. I have a cough that feels like I’m getting stabbed in the chest. She has the runny nose and sore throat. I don’t know what to do since we’re sick at the same time. Nobody to listen to me whine.

My wife picked up a cold traveling that wiped her out for over a week. Being the understanding husband I let her sleep as much as she wanted and listened to her whining with sympathy, anticipating that I would end up sick too and that she could then reciprocate.
I did get sick. Monday. 3 hours before she left on a business trip. I'm surviving, but I have no one to complain to, so here I am.

Our thoughts are with you. Stay strong.
 
I have a persistent cough and with each cough I’m pretty sure I’m another inch in the ground towards death. I’ll be six feet under soon.
 
My wife and I took our daughter, her husband and our 2 1/2 year old granddaughter to Disney World over Thanksgiving. After flying home my wife immediately came down with a horrible cold and, 3 days later, it hit me.

Of course my wife just put her head down and quietly powered through it, but I had to go to the emergency clinic on Sunday because I could no longer handle the sore throat. It was embarrassing when the lady doctor examined me and said "yeah, your throat is a little red." Now it has spread to my eyes and I'm hoping I don't go blind.

Why are women so tough?

I've had a cough since October 24thish. Productive most of that time. Sinus pressure, especially in the ears seems to come and go. I thought I was past all of it and then tonight my throat is all phlegmy and scratchy and the ear pressure is back.

Frustrated is an understatement.
 
A lot of Covid going around. I thought I had strep so I went in to get meds, nope so they tested for the rona just incase. Yep, I had it and they said it's flared back up. Mostly like a cold this time around. Sinus issues, cough, aches, and a headache.
 
It sounds like we need to pull together in this time of great need and suffering by so many of our CFers. This is truly a turbulent time when all our thoughts and prayers can lift these guys up and give them the strength to pull through.

Or, does anybody know where you can get a discount on bulk coffin orders?

This has to be what I've had (still have) despite testing negative. I've taken more advil, benadryl, Flonase and mucinex DM than I have in my life. I finally got a steroid inhaler and prednisone that was helping.

If we're ordering bulk coffins, put me down for one.

Paging @brentblum here's your next WeWill collective product. Prepaid customized coffins and funeral service since CF is a bunch of oldies. Bonus add on to the package would be having someone who gets paid to attends the funeral.
