Finally lost the Covid lottery. :(
#well i'm assuming i did at any rate#i didn't bother testing but i have mild symptoms (little sore throat and little headache) and my S.O. tested positive so…#we're both fully vaccinated so i'm not too worried just disappointed lol#we'd made it this long after all#(but we also just got back from vacation so the stress of travel might have knocked our immune systems just enough for it to set in#like last year we took a small trip and even though we were masking in the airport on the return#i still managed to catch a cold there somehow???)#personal

SOS I’m getting a cold and am very slowly developing a sore throat which is the worst worst worst worst worst symptom
#the baby is also getting a cold so we’re gonna have a great time come morning#I���m savoring my ability to drink liquids now because it’ll be gone by morning#I am such a baby about sore throats#I’d take any other cold symptom for weeks rather than a couple days of a sore throat

Emotional reaction: Now? I'm getting sick now? When we have a family dinner in two days? Why couldn't I have gotten sick last week when I was depression napping all the time anyway?
Logical reaction: Maybe you were depression napping because you were starting to come down with this illness and thus had no energy?
Emotional rection: ...Okay that kinda makes sense and it would actually be a relief if there was a concrete reason for that besides vague mental illness stuff but it's still annoying
#Dally's personal life#illness#I have in fact been wondering if I've been getting sick but without definite symptoms like 'persistent sore throat' I genuinely can't tell#like am I tired because I'm getting sick or am I tired because I did one (1) social activity and/or thought too hard about politics?#more tired than usual I mean#I'm always tired Cap#I'm also a regular contestant on 'is this a cold or just allergies'

bad day today but hopefully this'll be the worst of it and it'll go away soon -v-
#this sucks but the nice thing about colds. is that they don't last forever#the chronic illness obviously will but this won't and thank god because this sucks ass. way worse honestly#maybe just because I'm not used to it but. holy shit go away I hate you#lol I've been so overdramatic about it I feel. for no real reason tbh I think I just get grumpy kinda easily#I mean it is a pretty bad cold to be fair#but also I am. the whining whinerrrr#ANYWAY my parents have already recovered from their colds and I only got mine a little after them I think#so logically I should probably recover pretty soon too#this fucking congestion. hate you hate you hate you#have gotten some headaches and I'm more used to headaches so that's not too bad#honestly I don't think the cold has affected my usual symptoms much?#which is kinda wild but good because I don't wanna deal with that combination#sore throat seems to be gone today and I hope that lasts because I hate her. get out.#but tbh I'd prefer that over this I think godddd this sucks ass okay#barely slept last night it kept me up all night I'm going to kill something#but yeah my usual symptoms have been chill actually. idk if this is just distracting me from noticing them but. hey

[health talk warning!] for years of dealing with undiagnosed illness i've had to really learn the Art of ignoring symptoms for the sake of keeping on keeping on for the sake of my sanity so it's kind of a bitch that my body has unlocked The Unignorable....the Near Daily Headache.... now i am stuck psychoanalyzing like 80% of my social interactions to make sure i wasn't too ornery or too much of a Lump because i feel like headaches turn me Evil and sap away my spirits and pleasantries sorry if u have spoken to me and i have been weird or ho-hum or short lately my head is being split open like an egg every other day and my brain keeps falling out
#health talk#and longass tags#i mean i guess the debilitating fatigue/sleepiness cropping up without warning was unignorable but at least i'm usually asleep during#so it is a Me Problem#i have spent a long time abstaining from pain killer due to Paranoia despite chronic pain but#i've been having to take a painkiller the past few nights just to get to sleep :[ not pleasant#i have been like....you know that feeling where you're like 'oh i'm about to come down with a cold'#where you have Symptoms but nothing full blown just yet just maybe a sore throat & w/e but you anticipate waking up miserable the next day#i've had that but perpetually and the cold never comes#and i have to try very hard not to think about what that could mean#i have also abruptly gone from no sleep to oversleeping and feeling horrifically unrested upon waking and STILL riding vague headaches#i am melting#this post started off lighthearted but then the demons got in

After having a sore throat for eight days straight I finally felt better this morning, only to develop a relentless cough. This is unfair!
#unfair I say as if I haven’t been over working muself#not snz#going to ramble in the tags a little bit#it started last Friday so I assumed that I was coming down with a cold#I felt like shit over the weakened but it was really just fatigue and the sore throat#cut to last week- three out of my four coworkers were sick#so I—the least sick out of them—had to pick up the extra work#which was fine because it was really just my throat that was bothering me. I had basically no other symptoms#I was tested for Covid and strep and both came back negative so I’ve kind of been at a loss#now I’m paranoid that the cough is something entirely new that I picked up at the doctors office#I feel like I just need a day to sleep#snz ramblings#snzblr#snz blog#cw illness#cw sickness#cw contagion

i think i have a cold for the first time in almost ten years
#so far its just a sore throat and weird headache but i think its gonna get worse#and im 1000000% sure its because i just started taking a new medication for my (suspected) arthritis and one of the main symptoms#is an increased susceptibility to infections 😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨#REALLYYYYY hoping it doesnt get too much worse cause my supervisor just left work and they havent replaced him and now#i have no idea how to call out of work 😭😭😭😭😭 im sure theres another number but ive only ever called out once and#i just texted my supervisor and he took care of it for me so i have ZERO clue#also i am just. honestly livid. that im even possibly sick. its been a DECADE... I haven't even had a mild cold that entire time#and now less than a week into taking these meds it depletes my immune system I GUESS......... 😒😒😒#and im not about to stop taking them cause its actually HELPING... im not in constant pain 24/7 😭😭#gonna kermit honestly this shit sucks its not even that bad i just feel Incorrect#j.txt

Oh my fucking god tell me my body doesn’t hurt like that from carrying things for my family what the hell
#had another Covid test come back negative though#so signs point to muscle soreness rather than aches from being sick#again: long Covid has made any cold symptoms I get now more severe and it’s so much harder to tell when something’s not right as a result#cape town rambles#going to the gym is all fun and games til your family knows you can lift stuff LMAO

in an infuriating update, after having no symptoms at all yesterday, today i am exclusively experiencing the symptom of "very slightly too warm but not quite a fever".
#like#to be clear#my temp has not hit 100#the earliest reading i did was a 99.9#and since then it's been shifting between 99.4 and 99.8#the cdc says a fever is 100.4#but there's also research suggesting that the fever temp should be lower than that#but also no literature agrees on where it should be instead of 100.4#so#this is infuriating#and also to be clear a second time#'too warm' is my only symptom#no malaise. no cough. no sore throat. my joints don't even hurt and that happens like every time i get sick#it's been a frustrating week for my body#also i feel too warm. usually when i have A Fever i feel cold#but i'm just. overheating. constantly.#ughhhh#my current guess is that this is the known influenza phenomenon#where one gets extremely mildly sick for a short period of time#it's really hard to study because most people with this don't report illness#they often don't even realize they are sick#before covid i don't know if i would have realized i was sick#hell i think even in a covid context i only noticed because i was hyperaware for symptoms after the concert#anyways#very annoyed

dude this kink HAS to be related to my illness anxiety somehow like there is no way it’s a coincidence how connected the subject matter is
#things related to illness make me so angry and like I have so many triggers#like I have a huge problem getting massively triggered when people try to deny they are sick#it genuinely freaks me out so much when people blame what is clearly illness symptoms on allergies#like it makes me cry#one time someone said that they had a really sore throat but it was probably just allergies and I literally started crying#and the next day they had strep#now the people in my house are trying to convince me that I might not be sick and maybe my sore throat is from talking#even though half the household has a nasty cold

was supposed to do volunteer work for the skate club tonight so had to make sure to eat before. A 30 minute roundtrip to the store later and I have cold sweat and a headache, but only a very very tiny fever. Still decided to tell then I’m too sick to come, but I feel like a fake. Like what is 0.5′C when it all comes down to it?
on the other hand, this was a short walk, I would have to go on a walk that google estimates to close to an hour to get there. and then actually do the work.
still on the fence about calling in sick for work tomorrow or not.
#i've been feeling like i'm about to come down with something for like 2 months#it never fucking goes anywhere though#like i'll have Some symptoms but they'll only be there for a few hours at a time#i can't afford to stay home for Weeks because i have a sore throat 3 hours/day?#i've been trying to rest it away - no luck. i've been doing things to trigger it to an actual cold - also no luck#i'm in sniffles limbo since january and soooo done with this shit#my life

in that excellent state of being almost better but still sick
#idk man im in the greatest mood ever i wish this stage of a cold could last weeks#like i take it easy and dont get as aggravated as i normally do bc im sick and i know im sick and cant overdo it#but im not really suffering a ton of symptoms just a lil stuffed up and slight sore throat#and i feel like i need to be cozy in bed the whole day and ideally i would be#idk. is this just a me thing. it could be#maybe the cold is like. idk doing something to my mind so that im not Feeling and Noticing everything like normal#so im more relaxed. once im completely better we'll be back to feeling the aches and pains and fatigue and stress of normal life
