Sick-water weight?

Does your body retain water when you have a cold? My weight jumped up 5 pounds the day before I got this horrible evil cold. My fingers are puffy and I can't get my rings off. I can't even eat because everything tastes like cardboard. :( I couldn't even enjoy my cheat food at the State Fair. I guess I am just looking for confirmation that when I feel better this weight will come back off.
