Yeah, it could be a cold and probably is. It could also be an allergic
reaction. Now before you say "Didn't you just that it couldn't be???" ...
it's not likely that the OP has never been exposed to any of the protein
compounds of the ingredients (or similar compounds) in the course of a
lifetime, and could be becoming increasingly reactive to them now.
