Not Feeling Well

Recently, I have been hearing about a lot of people being sick with bad colds. I was able to avoid it up until this past weekend, when I was definitely not feeling well.

At the end of last week I started having a little tickle in my throat. I thought it was just my allergies acting up again. But by last night, I was sneezing, had a really bad cough, a very runny nose and a slight fever. I took a COVID test and it was negative. I’ll take another tomorrow, just to be sure.

I’ve been taking an Emergen-C in the morning and one at night, plus lots of Ricola Honey Herb drops. They help, but so far they haven’t been enough to turn things around. I’m taking acetaminophen to try and get my fever under control, because it went up to 100.1 degrees this afternoon. My normal temperature is 97 degrees, so that’s rather high for me. Taking lots of honey lemon tea and cough syrup too.

I work from home, so I worked today, but a shorter day than usual. I’m still not feeling well, but hopefully I’ll be better tomorrow. I definitely plan to take it easy for the rest of the evening.
