Thread: summer cold?

  1. #1

    Default summer cold?

    I picked up some sort of summer cold, sneezing w/stuffy sinus. No throat/ear/chest complications. It seemed to peak within a day and now it's subsiding.
    Is this going around or am I just a sicky?

    About two months ago both me and my wife had a bad cold, not unlike the one you are describing.
    Negative test.
    Went away in about a week...

    Wife and I currently have something similar. Kind of an odd time of the year to be sick. Ours is mostly in the sinuses but we both have fevers and are achy.

    Just got back from a trip to southeast Texas so maybe we contracted covid. Who knows.

    About two months ago I had a "spring flu," which apparently was going around at the time. You might just be late to the party!

    wife has the summer cold. Turns out it's Covid. Seems everyone I know or meet with the summer cold has tested positive for covid.

    I came back from the NRA membership meeting in Houston [end of May] with a cold. Mildest cold I've ever had. Turned out it was COVID.

    If you're interested, test. If not you'll be fine in no more than two weeks.
