lordie, lordie --- it was time.

BS"D! 

hello, my friends <3 --- i had covid. :-P
i really can't complain, i managed to hang in there and not get SLAMMED by an earlier variant, this one left me with a migraine/sinus-hell for a day, i got hit with a fever for a couple days and woke up the next day with a seizure - (it happens, with the epilepsy, i have a very low seizure threshold when it comes to fevers) - the ONLY thing that pushed me over the edge was that i noticed my phlegm was a little yellow so i went to the hospital..

i was already 98.1 deg. F by the time i went to the hospital, and they tested me and said that it had indeed been covid, but my sore sinus/throat was already fading.. they kept me for 2 days for observation but then sent me home with antibiotics - "just in case" ....

i spent a few days with funky sense of taste and dragged ASS for almost a week.. but then a couple days ago, i had some chest pain... it was the upper left side, the side that has hurt me for years whenever i have a flare-up of my heart problems, but - again - i didn't want to take any chances so i went BACK to the hospital to get it checked out and make sure that it wasn't blood clots from the covid..

they gave me a gazillion blood tests, x-rays, and cat scan, but no blood clots at all.. they gave me another 5 days of the antibiotics "just in case" and sent me home.

so there is my melodrama of the past 2 weeks. but today i woke up and i am walking around the house tidying up a bit and amazed at how "awake" i actually feel... i can't freakin' believe that i lucked out like i did. baruch hashem. <3
