Clinical narrative: On Friday 10/21 around 6pm I had really mild chills and body aches. The following day 10/22 the mild chills and body aches were still there but I had a headache. It was similar to the same headache that I had while I had COVID-19 and the other booster. I took Ibuprofen for it. It helped a little bit, but I could tell then it wore off. The chills and body aches were still there but they came and went. That evening I had a tickle in my throat. Sunday morning, I could tell that the headache was reducing. I had a very intense sore throat. It hurt to swallow saliva. I did more ibuprofen and an oral spray. I continued that every 3-4 hours every day. The sore throat was the main symptom all day on Sunday. That night I had this single cough, I felt that postnasal drip. At 11pm I took a home COVID-19 test, and it came back negative. On Monday that sore throat was present but improving. That afternoon the sore throat was the same, but I started feeling tired and achy. The runny nose started. I took more Ibuprofen at night right before bed to help me sleep through the night. I did another home COVID-19 test because the symptoms were picking up and it was negative. That night is when the cough started, and it was waking me up. I took Tessalon Perles to stop it so I could sleep. That Tuesday the headache and sore throat resolved. The runny nose and cough were still persistent. The cough was productive. I had a lot of heaviness in my chest, and I felt it staring to thicken up in my sinuses. I took another Tessalon Perles for the cough. I took an Advil cold and sinus, but I was taking Mucinex. I think it was what was keeping the fever at bay. It also explains why the congestion was getting worse. Tuesday afternoon, the Advil wore off and my symptoms hit me like a ton of bricks. I was very lethargic, achy, congestion, dull headache, coughing. I was also having chest soreness from coughing.  I thought I had the flu because the test was coming back negative. I slept that night, but it was horrible, I had a lot of sweats and chills. I had to change twice through the night. My temperature got up to 102 degrees on Tuesday night. I was very lethargic after sleeping for 12 hours Tuesday night. My temperature was reading low 99 degrees. I took Mucinex and Zinc on Wednesday. the symptoms on Wednesday remained the same, after I took a nap, it felt like my fever broke. However, I still had a lot of nasal congestion. I had a doctors appt that day. My blood pressure was slightly high. My pulse ox was 95. It's usually hard to get a pulse ox because of my Raynaud's. They took my history did a rapid and OCR COVID-19 that were positive. They did flu and strep that are still pending. They prescribed Flonase, Tessalon Perles, Mucinex D. I'm still waiting on one prescription. I took more Mucinex DM , ibuprofen, and Tessalon Perles. the cough has continued but is not as bad now. My symptoms today are a little more mild and less severe than Tuesday. The cough is still there just less frequent. I can't hear every well because there is a lot of fluid ins my ears.
