Whenever I have a cold (like I do now), I feel disproportionally ill, like I've caught a terrible flu. Kind of like my immune system is massively overreacting? Even a week in, my actual cold symptoms really are very mild, but I feel so very miserable. It feels exactly like PEM, but with much more intense malaise and shiveriness.

Anyone recognize this? (I read that some people with ME/CFS actually feel better during a cold?)
