Is it possible that my cold symptoms become more severe as i get older? if so, why? it feels that way to me; i have no allergies (already tested).

Ancient: At 34 it is all downhill. Your immune function may begin to fade when you pass the age of 60, but that does not necessarily mean that would make your cold symptoms worse. It is always difficult to remember exactly what the last cold felt like unless you have been keeping detailed records. Relax.
