I have slight post nasal drip and my chest achey for 3 days now. is this normal or is it a sign my body is fighting off a virus?

No: This is not normal. However one may get body aches from fighting a virus (interferon production) if problem persists > a week or gets worse , see doctor. In the meanwhile, try Tylenol (acetaminophen).
