Seasonal Allergies... Or A Head Cold....

I have a 99.3 or so temp (my normal temp is around 97.5). My head is icky, headache, light-headedness, and feels like its clogged. I've had an off and on runny nose. My throat is sore and red. No energy what so ever.

 

So, do i call this a cold or seasonal allergies?

I don't think seasonal allergies give you a fever, kiddo. The hubs never has a fever with his, but I'll let others pipe in on this one.

 

Maybe you caught a bug of some kind. Sorry.  :( I had one in February. It was not fun, but it passes. 

 

Soup, rest, water. ((hug)) Hope you feel better soon.

I do this every spring I have it now and have for the past three or four days, I run a low grade fever and all the symptoms you listed here. The reason for the fever is the same as any cold ( I also run a low grade fever if I'm glutened) it effects your immune system. I think it its probably allergies, check the pollen levels in your area and look at what is blooming around you, maybe you can pin point which tree or flower is causing you so much trouble. I think for me the fruit trees are to blame.

I get a fever with allergies. A head cold screams head cold to me -when I have one there's no doubt (meaning I know it when I feel it and don't question).

I'm never sure if allergies are flu or allergies until I take allergy meds and I improve. Takes 2-3 days, improving each day. Flu would only get worse.

I always get hit at least once each winter with allergies I think is flu - I have cedar/juniper issues and Dec/Jan is when they start up, during flu season.

This is a bad allergy spring. I'm on meds daily. Last year it was every other day.

Whatever it is, it is annoying.

      When my wife attempted to open the online card in the store with a cashier, it would not work. We then showed the owner the link to the card, the online receipt that I got upon purchase, and even my bank statement confirming the purchase. That did not satisfy her, since she said she needed the link to open to reveal the gift ID num. They even admitted they had a systems problem around that time.

      Was the card itself lost or just the record or both?

      We were flabergasted that the owner would not acknowledge a $50 e-gift card I purchased for my celiac wife. My wife tried to open it in the store and was informed there had been a system change and they could not find the record. No worries, she was told, just talk to management. Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally informs me there have been "bad actors", so she can't make good on this lost gift card. In other words, she accused me of lying and committing fraud... over $50! Please be careful with your orders and purchases here.

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can damage the stomach lining if you eat it too often. Especially if your stomach lining is already compromised. Ibuprofen inhibits the body's ability to rebuild the stomach's protective mucosal lining. That's why it can cause peptic ulcers. As strange as it may sound, low level irritation/inflammation stimulates the body to rebuild the stomach lining. There are two steps in this rebuilding process known as COX 1 and COX 2. Ibuprofen represses both COX 1 and COX 2. Celecoxcib, a prescription anti inflammatory, inhibits only COX 2, making it less likely to cause damage to the gut lining.

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen  I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.   Something is making my pain so much worse  I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.  Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever would do. I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding
