She was too tired. She Stated that, she had severe covid in Oct and was expecting something different to happen than most people. She had checked in with her doctor via online messaging. She Stated her hands continued to turn red, at night they will swell up and throb so bad it wakes her up at night. She confirmed they hurt and keeps her up at times. She could feel they were hot.

She Stated one more symptom is that she feels like she has a sunburn or a rugburn on the inside of her skin, there was no redness anywhere else.

Almost every day it's on her buttock, if she sits for to long it starts to get irritated and its like her nerves were getting mad. She had an appointment with her doctor today, last night was rough.
