I'm inclined to think the two month cycle is unusual. Are there other people in your area who are also getting colds every two months? Is there anything else in your life that runs on a two month cycle?

Agreed. Especially if it’s the flu.

I hate having to spend a week in bed every 8 weeks or so.

Bedridden and unhappy 11% of life is an extremely high cost - I would spend the money to see a doctor.
