I started sneezing last weekend. By Monday I had a sore throat and chills. We were doing allot of work up and downstairs etc. and I think I was tired but pressed on Tuesday. By Tuesday I was starting to get a headache and by Wednesday my calf muscles were killing me. If I hadn t done this same work when we leave our place every year, I would probably think that had something to do with the calf aches, but I ve done the same work for 25 yrs. Also years past I think I had some allergies that caused this loss of voice and when I took Claritin (it had helped) but, I would get sooooo tired, so I haven t taken any this time b/c I just hate to fall asleep during the day. I ve been using salt water up my nose and to gargle with, which usually helps, but not this time, and of course this makes me very thirsty, so now I drink more water. I was getting 7 hrs. sleep last week but last night I got 9 hrs and that usually fixes me up and cures whatever ails me as I am very healthy and take no meds other than Boniva. I hate to go to the Dr. and have him tell me it s just a cold, so I m putting it off. But since I have no earth shattering symptoms, I thought I would see if you have any suggestions please ? Thank you very much for listening !!!
