100 coughing fits hurt my body…not my chest, but rather send sharp electrifying pains down legs to toes. I’ve taken delsym, C, & zinc. Applied Vicks to bottom of feet & chest.
2:09 wide awake. Can’t sleep. Decided to pray for everyone who comes to mind.
700 not sure how long I prayed before falling asleep but got through bunch of people. Woke to use restroom. Whole body stings and aches. Temp 99.1
845 fell back asleep for little over an hour. Body still stings. Funny smell in my nose. Skin sensitive – hair on neck and fave feels like insects crawling on me – unnerving. Vision blurry like there’s a mucus film over eyes. Had to rub eyes to help it clear. Sinuses congested. Woke from strange dream (seeking out Dr’s who might care to help me heal while in midst of a war. Realize I need a new goal – finish college for one but also determine something I want to do (purpose in life). Yet I’m conflicted bc I don’t know what I want to do. Don’t know what I’m good at with my current limitations.
Tongue still covered white and small lesions all over. It hurts today.
1040 showers are such a chore. Worn out and must rest a bit to catch my breath and easy fatigue arms. Coughed up a bunch of phlem. Thankfully it’s clear for most part.
100 spent half hour working on blog. Exhausted. Headache. Need to rest a while.
Feet are freezing. Chilling sensation gradually moving up legs – up to mid chin.
300p apparently I fell asleep in chair. family surprised me. Told me that they were cooking dinner for me as their way of showing appreciation for me taking care of sick family even while I was sick. It’s nice to be appreciated.
600 funky smell stuck in my nose. Can’t figure it out.

900p temp 99.7. I feel hotter than that.
1030 decided to pick up a textbook to work towards finishing my bachelors degree. Took me a bit to find book. Found Christmas present I forgot about. Still have birthday upcoming. Lol. I could literally hide my own Easter eggs. Lol.
Able to read for about 30 minutes before my eyes started hurting and blurring. Discovered I have about 5 classes left to finish. It’s doable at slow pace.
Headache. Brain/vision blurry. Funky smell in nose. Fever. Cough. Post nasal drip. Low back aches. Head itches. Lower let leg tourniquet tightening feeling from calf down with numbnish & tingling.
I’ll have to try to remember to brew some thyme & oil of oregano peppermint tea tomorrow
