I've been following the advice and only going out to shops and to exercise for about 6 weeks. 2 days ago I got a painful throat, having discomfort on swallowing right sided. Now my glands are up, more right sided and fullness in right ear with tinnitus. No fever, aches or pains yet. Could it be Covid? I'm worried it will develop. Has anyone else's illness started this way?

yes , mine started the same way first the glands ears hurt ,then itchy throat, then chronic dry cough with constant sneezing (if i have sneezed 10 times in my life i would be surprised) my nose wouldn't stop running CHILLS FOR 2-3 days . The fatigue was horrible . Every time I'd wash my hands i would sneeze, have to blow my nose or cough again. I would be washing my hands over and over...got one symptoms rarely discussed, CONJUNCTIVITIS
Finally had to go to a pulmonologist yes there was fluid in 1 lung. AFTER 3 weeks i got tested.
I tested NEGATIVE! Then i found out 30% of tests are false Negatives .
unfortunately still have the eye problems. I am 62.
My Mom caught it at the same time, although we don't live together, the beginning was the same. Because she is 81 with high blood pressure,diabetes,obesity,
she got it a lot worse.

I don't know if it could be Covid but I would think about mumps, too. One of my sons (vaccinated) had it at Christmas - his cousin (also vaccinated) caught it as did her mum.
