I've got all the side affects of a cold, but without the cold. It's very strange. I'm a bit snotty, but I'm not congested. I wake up with a sore throat and a load of green goo, but it's gone fairly quickly. And I feel tired, but without the groggyness. It's like a full on cold but at 25%. Touch wood this is as far as it will go but I've been like this for nearly a week
