Cough Cough

Can I whine about my cold for a couple seconds? Remember when this started last week and I said I had a bit of a headache and a scratchy throat? It’s gone downhill since then. Every day I feel a teeny bit worse than the day before. I’m sleeping worse each night. I’m coughing more and my head grows heavier with snot. Is this even allowed? Shouldn’t I be feeling better? Where are the cough drops?
