Every morning i wake up feeling like i'm getting a cold. sore throat/ears, congestion, a bit short of breathe, then it goes away after a hour or two?

Morning Congestion: It is likely that you are allergic to something you are exposed to while asleep, such as dust mites, pet dandruff or what ever else may be on your pillow or in the air in your bedroom. Try an OTC antihistamine and an air humidifier with filter next to your bed. You may benefit from consult with an allergist.
