Title: Cold like symptoms.. Neg Covid. :)
Post by: Amerififer on August 12, 2022, 08:46:38 AM
Hiya All,

Wondering if anyone has had similar issues... I've been on everol conti 50 for just over 3 months now.. Over the last week or so I've developed cold like symptoms... runny /stuff nose, needing to blow it frequently... voice change like when one has a cold.. sneezing.. sore to swallow off/on..

It could just be a coincidental good ole summer cold.. as I've done several covid tests .. all negative.. and I test regularly due to working in NHS..
Any ideas????

Could it be hay fever? I have these symptoms due to hay fever.

Lots of people where I am have had a cold in recent weeks. I can't imagine it would be linked to the HRT after three months  Flossieteacakes suggestion of hayfever is a good one. My son developed it two years ago for the first time at the age of 31. Hope you soon feel better.

Ta for the responses so far.. :) .. I did think about hay fever as I do suffer from that.. and this year has been particularly bad.. Just not had such severe hay fever symptoms before and I'm already on a antihistamine..
So must be something different that is triggering it this time.(pollen wise) wish I knew what it was tho.. sooooo annoying especially working with mask on all day.. .. Off today and the weekend tho.. Yipeeee :) x
Hope everyone is having a good day .. lovely day here in the Fife region of Scotland anyways..

Could be a cold.  Mid-1st lock down I had 1 for 2 days, even though we were isolated  ::)
