When I got a bad case of mastitis, I remember laying in bed thinking that the 103 fever and body aches were as bad or worse than labor. My first Covid vaccine shot also gave me 103 fever and body aches, and I remember having that same thought again. It's just really hard to have a high fever as an adult. I hope you can get Paxlovid and some relief.
Op here. Thank you. This truly reminds me of labor. Just the despair and the desperately wanting it to be OVER, and just craving relief, any kid of relief.
I’m just so freaking angry right now, we had the worst winter ever of kid illnesses, I missed so much work, I was so badly sick (with flu and with covid and multiple other viruses). I feel like I CANNOT GO BACK TO THAT HORRIBLE TIME AGAIN. I CANNOT DO IT.
