As usual with taking Meds that Dry out your Sinus’s, I got cracked Nasal passages when I woke up, and Had some minor nose bleed.
But Then, I always get that. This time I Did not Expel a LOT of Mucus, not as much as last time, when my ears got stopped up last time I had the Flu.

The Cough was the Strange symptom this time, never quite had an irritating repeating cough like this one, but over the counter med stopped it....some blue pill.

Thanks for that 4Speed, we had a family member that was expelling a lot of mucus out of the left nostril, the right side was mostly clear, and their temperature fluctuated from near normal (99.7 or so) up to a high of 103.3, all within an hour or so. That cycle repeated itself for about 4 days, then everything started to clear up. No vomiting, slight cough, now they’re fine. Very odd behavior for whatever-it-was.

Hope you continue to feel better!

Get a netti pot. GNC sells them. It is a mini tea pot that you fill with warm water and a pinch of salt. Tilt head sideways over sink, put spout in one nostril and salt water comes out other nostril. Repeat on other side. Sounds gross, but works like a charm. Havn’t had the usual spring sinus issues yet.
