For the last week I have had an issue where my eyes are dry or almost burning, my sinuses, throat and lungs also are irritated at times, and I also was going to the bathroom more than usual but it was normal for the most part but also just didn't feel well, sometimes warm sometimes a minor chill but my temp was below normal! Where I work they had the stupid idea to build apartments above and below us, and the cooking smells and other stale smells makes me worse, and I was wondering if that was causing it but it has been this way with the smells for months now, so I doubt it would have taken until mid January to start giving me problems, I think it is either viral and allergies/weather since it is above normal temps and wet and the mold count must be absurd, or a combination of both things, but it is very, very strange and gets on your nerves and runs you down!!
lefay4614, What your doctor advised is exactly what channel 4 news mentioned Wednesday night, 02/01/17. They said antibiotics do not work for viral infections and that they only work for bacteria infections and the two viruses which are currently causing people such misery are both airborne viruses. I was trying to GOOGLE channel 4 news report for the name of the 2 viruses that they mentioned when I saw your post. Channel 4 news said one virus is of the nasal passage and stomach and the other is excessive coughing and in the lungs. I have the one in the chest/lungs with coughing. I already had annual flu shot and pneumonia shot but I still saw my doctor for check-up and she sent me for chest x-ray. All was clear, but this virus won't let me go either. Gone for a week after bothering me for 3 weeks then came back going on four more weeks. I too can function although feeling less than myself with only a low-grade fever. We shall overcome some day, I pray.
