The One Hundred And Twelfth Month

I've got Covid!

It started last Thursday afternoon, I started to loose energy and then got a headache. I decided that I needed food and some air and then I would feel better. I bought some food got home and was like I'm not eating that. I gave it away and went to bed, that was about 6:30pm. I then slept and awoke randomly for the next three days. Two panadols were the only thing I "ate" for those three days, although I drank even more liquid than normal. The only time I spend out of bed was going to the toilet and refilling my drink. 

Then on Sunday I started to feel better, not quite so tired, but as the day wore on I started to noticed that my mouth felt strange. I was losing my sense of taste, so that is the new challenge as it seems that losing your taste is a lot like when you have something very hot and you burn the inside of your mouth. Nothing tastes as it should. Today it took me two hours to eat breakfast, as it was such a task. However I have read that maybe smaller but more frequent meals are the way to go. I think I will give that a try. Although I also have a sore throat which complicates the issue.

My nephew had a Rapid Antigen Test, which I took and which confirmed that I had Covid. Although I tell you the test was worse then the three days in bed sick! 

I currently have low levels of energy, but today I haven't had to lie down once so that is improving. Which is why I'm publishing this a day late. I was up yesterday and I was ready to write but I put it off and then I got super tired and went to bed early. 

This month I have had 3,800 visitors, my best day was the 8th of July, when I had 666 visitors, my worst day was the 4th July when I had 22.

  1. I'm glad you are on the mend. Just a thought and if you already knew this... never mind. Your posts come to me in Feedly as full posts. Technically I don't even have to click over to your blog read your entire post. Is there a way on Blogspot you can change that so feeds can only show the title or the first few lines? We have that option in WordPress and I'm almost positive you can do it in Blogspot. That way, people HAVE to come to your actual post. You may have many more people reading than you know.

    1. To be honest I don't know, I guess I should try and find out!
