Just can't seem to break it....

Hello everyone. I hope all is well. I am not well right now. I wish I knew why. If no improvement tomorrow, I want to book a doctor's appointment. On Friday I was not feeling normal. I had a dry throat, a pounding headache, my legs were aching and no appetite. I got my dad to feel my head and he was concerned with how hot it was. From memory (because I literally cannot recall) I went to bed, woke up and felt worse. My dad felt my head again and said it was still hot. So I took my temperature. To which is was 38.1 According to Google that's 100.58F. I wanted to take Paracetamol / Panadol but needed to eat first. Which was tough. I cooked rice, but once I put a small spoonful in my mouth, I imagined I looked like a toddler not enjoying food. I was slowly chewing with a scrunched up face wanting to spit it out. I had abut 3 small spoonfuls and had a tablet. Though I know a cooler bath would have been better, my legs was so sore so I had a hot bath to help them while holding a cold pack to my head. My temperature went down to 37. something but then back up to 38.1. I checked it a lot. It's stuck on 38 right now (just checked). While I'm typing this by the way, I truly hope I'm making sense. I know what I'm thinking but I feel like I'm not expressing it so head's a bit loopy. Right now I'm about to make Mac 'N' Cheese which I love but right now.... I just need to eat something to have tablet. Head is starting to pound hard again. I WILL be going to the doctor's and I WILL be doing a Covid test. Just saying in case people feel the need to tell me that. I will be doing it so no worries. For now I'm just stumped on what is going on. It came out of nowhere.

This is a wonderful post. I wonder why it lacks interactions?

@Treborika Thank you. But, this post wasn't about a healthy update. It was explaining how sick I was.

So sorry you're not feeling well and I've read your next post. Hopefully when you ring the authorities they'll be able to tell you the best treatment. I think it is the same as for a cold - plenty of fluids and rest, and paracetamol to help with the aches and pains.

@JudyEv Thank you Judy. And yes pretty much. I've been doing everything I would do when having a cold. Only difference about this is my temperature still isn't going down to something more normal. And the aches in my lower back, thighs and knees are something shocking. But I will ride it out just like a cold. Happy the headache is gone though! That was awful!
