Oh, me too. Had it almost two weeks ago and after the immediate really shitty phase of 5-6 days I‘m still struggling with headaches and a shortness of breath. I wanted to go on a run the other day and it felt like I was gonna die. It‘s just as shit as the previous variants.https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/new-variant-covid-mask-rules-b2395154.html
Apparently my immune system decided to be edgy and cool and catch Eris, the new variant. This is now day six of it and it's like the last time I had COVID all over again.
People keep on looking @ me funny. Like girl. It's spiking?!Yeah, I try to mask as much as possible when I'm out and about. Too many people been hacking up their lungs in grocery and retail stores without one on. It's fucking scary, tbh.
See, this is exactly why my mama and I still wipe down as many groceries as we can. Ew.It's also gross with everything that's gone on in the world in the past few years people who are sick can't just pop a mask on if they need to go to the shops or something, it's not that big of a deal. I work in a supermarket and the amount of people just coughing over everything (or their hands and then touching merchandise/shelves/etc). Yuck.
I think I've caught the latest variant?
I felt cold in the early hours but didn't think anything of it, but then this morning I literally felt a dread at the thought of getting out the bed, then when I did I was shivering uncontrollably. I managed to eat porridge though I had no appetite. Then I started sweating a bit and I'm so lethargic it's unreal. I'm getting by but still feeling heavy and a bit sick also have diarrhea?
So far *touches wood* I haven't had the chest business but my heart was so quick earlier.
I had most of those symptoms early last week and I'm positive. It was definitely worse (for two days) than it was the first time I had it. The chills were terrible, had body aches. I'm now trying to fight it off and just have some lingering build up in my chest.
