Only a health anxiety sufferer could come up with this one.
For past three months on and off both myself and my husband have been getting days where it seems as if we are going to come down with a cold - one side of nose runs and face feels as if its very full ears feel full and generally achy all over. Wake up in morning very bunged up on the one side etc but after two days of this wham all gone back to normal. We don't get it together at same time but one of other of us will say every couple of weeks or more that we feel like this. My husband was convinced on xmas eve that he was in for a bad cold but today he's fine. I know there are huge amount of people very ill with flu like bug with cold and bad chests as nearly everyone we have met recently is ill. Going shopping sounds like you are in a TB sanotorium!
Anyway I suddenly remembered watching a programe on tv about a woman who had a constantly running nose like tap water and when it didn't clear up after a few weeks was sent to ENT and she had leaking brain fluid because a hole had appeared at top of her nose into brain. The reason it was on TV was because it was extremely rare - it was on that morning hospital programme that was live.
I know I am being daft here and can laugh at myself about it but anyoneelse experiencing this on off cold???
