I've had two after my infusions! ... didnt come to anything.i had breathing problems , it was my asthma! , I had hayfever ....

Its so worrying isnt it. I think new persistent cough and temperature are the main worries for covid. But if you are worried, just isolate anyway , call 111! Xx hugs such a awful time isn't it xxx

It's only normal to be worried - this is making all of us super cautious, understandably! Can you take antihistamines? My other half had some symptoms and thought it couldn't be hayfever because it's too early, but an antihistamine sorted them out. Maybe with our crazy weather changes the hayfever seasons are moving about too? Hope you feel better in the morning, try not to worry *too* much. :)

I have had the same and really wouldn’t be surprised if it’s hay fever. We had wet dull weather today but when I checked the pollen situation on Netweather this morning was surprised to hear my area was Moderate for pollen count, typically Oak pollen! As suggested to you, why not try an antihistamine and see if it makes all the difference? Evening shower and washing hair often stops carrying the pollen up into the bedsheets! You could try changing your pillow cover daily and see what that does too?

Ha. I have the same problem. I suffer from Hay Fever, and in recent years it bring on seasonal asthma (I don't normally have asthma), I too, get a sore throat and fell a bit feverish... These symptoms have increased my anxiety levels spor-adically (he he).

Blooming nuisance!

Stay safe

Hi there , sorry to hear you are worrying, 2 of my sons had the same worry but when started antihistamines they felt better. Try local honey if you can get it at the moment, gargle with salt water and wash face and hands frequently to rinse off pollen. Some people find vasaline round nostrils to catch pollen help . I hope your symptoms settle down and you start to feel better 😀
