Hi

I am in peri and I just wondered if anyone else has experienced cold or flu symptoms without actually getting a cold.

Last year for about 2 months I constantly felt like I was about to get a cold. Everyone around me was droping like flies with one bug or another but I just carried on and it never developed into anything. I just congratualed myself on being super healthy and having a great immune system that was fighting everything off. 

Now I am experiencing the same thing again (having bouts of throat, coughing, headaches, but otherwise feeling fine), which has been going on for about two weeks without actually turning into a cold. This time no one around me is particularly ill and I have been having a bit of a rough year, so I have not been as healthy as I was last year.

I just wondered if I am just fighting things off or if this was another whacky peri-symptom that I have.

Anyone else experienced this?

Hi cider yes I'm usually like that and it never usually amounted to much bu5 not this time I've had a rotten cold for around a week now I thought I'd escaped it as I was getting the odd symptom bu5 nothing full blown till now when everyone else seems fighting fit around me.just take honey lemon and paracetamol that'll help the joint aches too,good luck xx

You probably have a good immune system in that the body fights a Germ but doesn't actually develop into anything.  Also, allergic rhinitis can become more pronounced during peri..
