Yes it’s run through our family too. We’re in CA so not local. It’s really strange. It’s worse than a cold but no idea what it is. Everyone negative on Covid and flu tests.
For DS, I was convinced he had the flu but negative. Muscle pains, high fever , headaches and then so much congestion he could barely talk. He was prescribed Prednisone and azithromycin. Better after a few days of Prednisone and antibiotics.
For me, nothing flu like just massive amounts of sinus congestion and fatigue. No antibiotics but took a week of hot showers, tea, rest, OTC stuff.
DH - same as above but occasionally runs a low fever.
DD -headaches, sinus congestion, wet cough, tons of congestion, low fever , prescribed amoxicillins that aren’t doing much.
