So I had some debilitating body pain this past week completely out of the blue, no clue to what caused it.
As I ponder what to do next......the only thought that comes to mind is - is it COVID? Could it be COVID? Nothing else...... However, I think to myself, I have no respiratory issues. My breathing is normal.......but then again I have a headache....for the last TWO DAYS. Now I do suffer from migraines and have just started a new medication. So many things to wonder about in my little brain, that is feeling like it is cranking out complex algorithms at this point.
So maybe I should do an at home COVID test......or should I? What if if it's positive? I will have to cancel all the rest of the activities for this week, not to mention I would have to inform every single person I have met that I am positive. Which is not many, mind you. Oh man, and all the sorry feelings that go along with it. I'm sorry I gave it to them. They are sorry for me and for themselves.
However, if I don't, I could be infecting my family....now while we are all vaccinated and boosted I could create community spread in my inaction. The next epicenter of COVID in Virginia would be my house. I would single handedly cause schools to shut. So I ponder and ponder and ponder and eventually common sense takes over. With much trepidation I take the plunge.
And drum rolls, I am negative!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Woot! Woot! I am doing cartwheels am so happy, I am bouncing around in joy. My kids think I have lost my marbles. My husband looks at me funny all day. My joy knows no end.... it feels like I have won the Olympics. Meanwhile, my mysterious aches and pains yet remain.
