I’m sorry I’ve been a bit quiet of late, particularly in replying and sharing. I’ll be back up to force as soon as I can. At the moment I’m suffering from Covid again and feeling a little bit sorry for myself.
It started last week when I felt I had a cold but I woke up in the night feeling like I’d been run over by a truck. Every single bone ached, and for someone in pain all the time it was not much fun having my bones joining in with my muscles. I had a fever and was shivering. I admonished myself for not having my flu jab but I’d just not managed to fit it in. Along with my Covid jab. Ah, never again!
I felt so bad the next day I don’t really remember much. Thanks to scheduling, my blog carried on working without me. The weekend passed in a blur, but I woke up Saturday morning and pack of Covid tests fell off the top of the fridge…a sign maybe. I decided to do one and it came up positive straight away. URGH. No-one else in the family was poorly, but then I got a text from Graham telling me to tell Boo he wouldn’t be picking her up as he was feeling unwell…culprit? Possibly? I didn’t see Graham all weekend but he seemed fine by Monday morning when he came to take the Little Man to school. I called my GP and was told to expect a call back as they couldn’t see me in the surgery. I was hoping for some anti-virals as they worked wonders last time. I didn’t get the call back. I didn’t feel up to calling them again.
The fever seems to be dropping and my pain is much like normal apart from my chest which worries me most. I’ve had the most awful stomach spasms every time I cough, and I just feel like I’m being crushed all the time. I also have pain in my sides which is unbearable if I dare do anything stupid…like move! (or cough, or sneeze, or laugh…but there’s not been much of that)
So, yes, I’m feeling a bit sorry for myself but I thought I’d just pop in and let you know what was happening. It too will pass. Once classed as clinically extremely vulnerable, I don’t even warrant a call back from my GP anymore…woe is me.
EDIT: I did get a call from my GP and was booked into a local hospital for an infusion of Sotrovimab at hospital the next day, and now I’m starting to feel a little more human again!
You just take your time and rest! It sounds like you have had a rough time of it. Sending love and hugs, I hope you feel better soon. x
Oh no! I’m so sorry you are sick. I hope you feel better soon xx
So sorry to hear that you have been sick. I hope you’re feeling better after your infusion. Take care of yourself 🙂
