It might be Covid. My wife and I have been very congested since early this week and a bit tired the last few days. We assumed we both had bad colds. Since we had some Covid test kits in the house we decided to use them before the shelf life date expires. We were really surprised they both came up positive. I’ve taken NyQuil before bed the last couple nights and it’s been very effective. The symptoms peaked on Thursday and have been getting better since then.
Thanks. I did use a COVID test yesterday and it was negative. I feel better today but still feel congested. I will probably keep testing for the next 2 days.
 
You poor thing! Do you have a vaporizer? If so, try that. If not, try boiling some water in a pot. You can add some Vicks to the pot. Take the pot off the stove & hold your head a comfortable distance from the steam with a towel over your head. This should loosen the mucous and help it flow. If you have a neti pot, that's a good thing to use also.
Thank you. I use a sinus rinse and hot wash cloths for the congestion. I also take mucinex and antihistamines. And I drink lots of hot tea as I sniff the steam.

Today I feel better and even took naps and slept through the night. The sore throat that developed has become less intense. I just hope I do not get a bacterial infection.

I wish you were my nurse. 🤗

You're doing all the right things! I can be your virtual nurse. Please let me know how you are doing. I'll help in any way I can.🥰
 
Thanks Lilianna. I got the original vaccine two part series when it first came out, and a booster about six months later but haven’t been boosted since. This is my second case of Covid and fortunately, both have been very mild. Feeling good today and ready for the game.
I'm glad you're feeling better. 🥰
 
Its about noon and I have been getting better. Sinuses feel more normal and my throat is not as sore and my voice sounds awful.

I have been napping alot. Maybe I have sleeping sickness. I hope to make it to the first half of the game.
 
I think game day deserves a pass! Enjoy! 🏈🏈
I wish I would have never done it. I hate every minute of it... it is awful... it is like taking classes for a masters when you don't even have an associates degree... I tried to tell them, but they never listen to me..... it is exhausting. Only time anyone listens to me is of I am a bitch about it.

Good luck with it x
 
Good almost not morning anymore..... up since before 7 and procrastinating studying for my certification......
I’m seriously considering that people like us who work, never quit, and take it on the chin for the greater good are ones who build legacies. After we’re dead and gone others will look to us as true warriors. Work ethic is what makes the work go around so that it can continue to provide good things for others. My $.02 for the moment.
Dig in.
Hang in there.
It’s worth it.
And even if it’s not, you’re a good person!

Do you have to have this certification?
 
Per boss "not a requirement yet" and then reported to visit that we were all interested and enrolled....... I used to like her.
Do you generally like your job? Can you look for another? What would happen if you didn't do it?
