| I never get sick and have not been around anyone who is sick so I have no idea how I got this. Bad summer cold. Congestion, coughing, this thing won't leave. Anyone else have it too? |

| I just got it yesterday with a pink eye type infection as well. My 6 year old is now vomiting, no cold symptoms. It's gonna be a long night, I suspect. |

| Sore throat, stuffy nose, and I'm soooo tired. It's kicking my butt. |

| Yes. Lasts about a week or so. Just take a day to sleep then push through it. |

| My daughter picked something up and then gave it to me and my husband. It took all of us about two weeks to start feeling better. It wasn't the worst cold, but there was a lot of snot, and the drainage plus coughing/sore throat that seemed like it would never go away kind of did us all in. |

| I think I have strep throat. Sigh. |

| Yes! It made me wonder if I had strep throat, too, the sore throat is awful. DD also got pinkeye from it, probably from digging around for the dry boogers it was creating at night and then rubbing her eyes (said the doctor). |

| yes, dealing now for past five days. Starts with intense sore throat, then flu like symptoms with aches/pains, nose drip and fatigue. Finally, the congestion settles in with cough included. It has gotten into my inner ear too. True mess. Think I need antibiotic on this one. This is first cold I've had in three years and it happens during summer. Weird. |

| I have it and so does the little boy I nanny for. Runny nose, congestion, fatigue, and minor cough. Hoping it goes away soon. |

| I alwyas get colds in the summer I think it's due to being at a job where they keep the thermostat super low. I started coming down with something earlier this week, my nose was running and I started sneezing. |

| Yes! Both my kids had it then me. Stuffed up, cough, tired. It took us all close to two weeks to get rid of it. I had to break out the neti pot. |
