I am so worried about having COVID.
The weather here has been warm and cold on and off the last few days. Today it’s even snowing.

I have a stuffy nose and post nasal drip, some sneezing. Just overall feeling crappy. My mom also has cold symptoms. I’m so scared it’s COVID. My anxiety is so bad I can’t even work.

Hi Jenn,
Sorry about your fear.
Here it’s allergy season, could it be the same for you?

They're REALLY bad where I'm at. There is literally a coating of yellow pollen on my car ATM! :ohmy: The wife and I take an OTC allergy pill daily, have a nasal spray and keep daytime and night time cold and cough meds around just in case.

Thank you Scass. Yes my grandma that doesn’t live with us says her allergies are bad. Could be that, but I have been feeling so chilly since Monday. But no fever.

Im just so nervous. Both my parents have the first vaccine dose and I don’t have either yet. Just scared that these chills and sleepiness is due to what I am really dreading.

I know you’re scared but do you have any of the main covid symptoms? If you do then get a test, if you don’t then you don’t. Do you have antihistamines?

After this morning I only feel sleepy now. My throat isn’t scratchy anymore. I don’t really have any other symptom. I was off work last week and just started again this week. Could possibly be tired due to that...but I slept around 11pm last night and woke up at 7:30am. Usually Im okay sleeping those hours.
