Getting over cold w junky cough for 1 week. waking up drenched with sweat and body temp dropping to 35.2c (room is 20c). is that normal?

Infection.: It sounds like you are having a fever and chills, which means you are not getting over your cold, but getting worse! Get seen and treated, if necessary: you might have pneumonia.. If you are taking over-the-counter meds, they can make you feel bad, too, and are proven to be of little use, and may make you worse, so stop them.
