I’m actually happy that I got it. Natural immunity for the win.
I’ve been feeling pretty sick for the past couple of days. Last Wednesday afternoon, I was in process of having a really great day of work when suddenly around 4:30 pm I just wanted to lay down and go to sleep. I woke up a few hours later and felt pretty bad, fever, dull headache, slight sore throat, backaches, legs hurt a little, and a dry cough.
Now here I am a few days later, I think the fever finally broke a couple of days ago (Friday night into Saturday) and all the aches have gone away other than some lingering neck aches. I still feel pretty fatigued and half-sick but half-better. Strange feeling.
Also, about 90% of my smell and taste just vanished Saturday afternoon which was weird but expected. It’ll return at some point, I think.
So far it’s been annoying, but not really that bad. The most difficult part has been not feeling that bad but feeling so fatigued that it’s difficult to focus on work. I just want to lay down and rest.
So that’s what I’m doing a lot of the past few days. 12 hours of sleep at night and an hour nap during the day. 10,000mg of vitamin C and 20,000IU of vitamin D as well as my normal regimen of magnesium and zinc is what I’ve been taking. I’ll win and I’ll feel better soon. I might be feeling better by the time this blog post is published because I’m writing it last Saturday, Nov. 6th and the improvement in the way I've felt has been progressing steadily upward.
