Day 3 of snot hell. Decided to do another RAT though I suspect it's just a cold. Thank the flying spaghetti Monster for nasal rinses and real Sudafed. Also warm water with a tsp of honey and a half tsp of ghee has helped with the coughing.

Sympathy! If you've got my variant you'll be still coughing up muck over a week later. Steam is really good!

snot hell could be whooping cough

Don't think so, cough is not quite like that. I have dodgy sinuses so simple colds can become sagas of snot and congestion of I don't manage it early. Lots of steam, rinses and drugs.

Sounds like what Iโ€™ve got. So much coughing, and now the snottiness is kicking in. Ugh
