This bloody cold....

I'm not sure quite when it started, but I mentioned it in a post on the 15th of August, so it's now into its second month. Annoyingly it comes and goes, there are days when I have minimal symptoms, but then it pops back up. It went into hyperdrive a week ago and since then the thing I seem to be doing most is sleep. I've had the full gamut of symptoms - blocked nose, runny nose, sneezing fits, upset stomach, headache, a lovely couple of days where I was significantly deaf, and today a brief patch of vertigo - and annoyingly it's rotating through them randomly, so I have no idea what I'm going to be dealing with in a few hours, never mind tomorrow. It's not actually too bad in terms of feeling ill, it's just fatiguing and irritating.

If this is how my immune system is performing at the minute, then I'm definitely not going to let my coronavirus guard down! (I had my monthly ONS coronavirus test about the 30th, so chances of it being Covid are minimal).
