I am glad you are on the mend. I also had something similar at Christmas time. A good two days in bed, head about to pop and body aches. had funny, perfectly round purple spots, one with a yellow center emerge. Weird. What else are they doing that they haven't told us about?

10 days of feeling like crap. But I didn't die. I didn't pass it on bc I stayed home and my family are grown and gone. In fact, the hardest part of any of these have been to get ahead of any respiratory thing. Herbal steam baths and tea tree oil (knocked those spots right out, though they weren't raised or anything..still bizzare!)

This last time, while it really hurt my head, there was not respiratory element. Thankfully. What else are they lobbing out at us?

I would rather die of my own volition than take that kill shot. Ive watched too many people die and many injured.

You, get to 100% soon!

That sounds TERRIFYING!!! Glad you made it through. My BFF (in California, so we don't talk every day) saw this post today and called me to tell me she's sick as a dog, too. SO SICK SHE WANT TO THE ER. I was seriously like, "Have I taught you NOTHING???" She got v'd early on--to travel--but promised me she wouldn't get boosted and far as I know, hasn't. But the fact that she went to the ER instead of calling me FLOORED ME!!! Fortunately she made it out okay (with a flu diagnosis and a prescription for "nothing we can do for ya"). Eyeroll.

I'm sorry to hear that.

I have a friend that wants to seriously clean everything after I visit lately. She's all vaxxed up, me: none.

I told her about a year ago, after having to retire early w some heart complications and a surgery flowing her steady adherence, that I will only tell her once not to get any more (I've been banned from her house b4 - oh lordy!). She followed up w now I think her 7th! And second heart surgery, no energy, tachycardia that scares the daylights out if her ..but she's following Dr orders. She's going to rock herself away on her chair worrying about not getting her heart disturbed.

And, I slept through most of it and was out of it...lol. I suppose I could have teased my kids again about taking me out back like they used to do..
