Throughout the week, slow buildup of joint pain, feverish feeling, lack of appetite, swollen throat, buzzing head, torpor, lack of focus. Today I am just broken.
These are all (for me) normal physical reactions to overextending myself socially or spending time in sensory intense environments for any amount of time. They are also symptons I would get if I caught the head cold that is going around.
It feels extremely silly that I have literally zero idea if I have a cold or not.
Anyway, treatment is same either way: Take it easy for a while. Mostly wanted to share my frustrating confusion and maybe hear if others have similar experiences and how they manage. :)
For the last week, I’ve been the sickest I’ve ever been. Covid tests came back negative and as far as I know I haven’t had covid before, but I am miserable with all the symptoms you listed and I didn’t socializing at all.
