Last Sunday night, I got a tickle in my throat. On Monday the head cold set in. I don't get many colds but this was a doozy. Of course I was watching for fever, which never happened. I didn't get aches, rashes, diarrhea, headache or loss of taste. I did lose my appetite but could always taste. I had a lot of sneezing and congestion but no dry cough. They say tiredness is a symptom of COVID. I am normally a good sleeper and get 7 - 8 hours every night. Here is my week of sleep compliments of my Fit Bit! I never slept or napped during the day!
I didn't get tested as I didn't have the symptoms of COVID. I didn't go out and have been stuck in my house all week. I've never felt like I had a contagious disease before. Cec is fine and how he's not caught it is bewildering considering the sneezing. Of course I wash my hands often and try to keep away from him. Our TV remote control is in a zip lock. I have no idea how I caught it.
I had some cold medication but not getting many colds, I don't know what is good. Richard dropped off Cold FX. I've heard how it doesn't work, but when I started taking it, I started to immediately improve.
I've been staying off the phone because when I talk it starts the sneezing! I am on the mend. Last night I slept for 7 hours!
Normally when you have a cold, you continue life. I brought life to a halt.
