About 5 to 7 days ago my cold symptoms first began: stuffy nose, cough, minor fluid in lungs. SInce then it has progressed into more of a chest cold with more intense coughing (especially at night- I am awake for at least 2 to 3 hours just coughing), more fluid in my lungs, and minor congestion in my ears.This morning it got a bit odd. I am tender headed naturally but when I awoke this morning it hurt just to brush my fingers through my hair. Now tonight I have what you could describe as a "burning sensation" on parts of my collar bone area and up. Its feels almost like I have a sunburn, but I dont actually have a sunburn. Its also more concentrated on the side that my ear is congested.
I feel I should also mention I was hospitalised in june because the doctor thought I had meningitis, though he never did a spinal tap to fully verify his claim. I was traveling at the time and felt better once I got home.Does anyone know if I might have more than just a cold? Thanks for the help

Also, Just to mention, I live in Germany right now and thats why I havent been to see a doctor yet. We have to pay for everything up front and that can get expensive. So I am just trying to see if anyone knows of these symptoms and knows them to be very bad. Also, I guess to make sure there isnt any coorelation to me possibly having meningitis before because if thas the case I know I need to go to the hospital. I got sick very suddenly and wasnt around anyone that was sick.

You poor thing!
It sounds to me like you have yourself a really bad cold...sounds familiar except it seems to be going on for a long time. If I were you I might feel better if I went to see a doctor just to be sure...concidering you were sick only a short time ago.
I wish you well, good luck! :-)

My three month historic is getting over a bloodless and we took him to the health care professional to examine for RSV after determining he have been uncovered to it. It's very time-honored throughout the iciness months and I might ask the health care professional to examine for it for the reason that your little one has been unwell for awhile. My health care professional says a cough will have to handiest final two to three weeks and the congestion as much as 14 days. You're doing the whole thing I was once instructed to do. You possibly competent to deliver Infant Tylenol for the fever. I additionally sprayed his crib and bed with Lysol to kill germs and wiped down the entire door knobs within the condo. Also be certain to wash your humidifier more commonly and difference the filter out on the grounds that micro organism can develop in them. Hope your child feels higher quickly

I'm no doctor but I think you should get to one. And maybe try some Mucinex for the congestion & coughing. Good luck.
