askye, weren't you on a steroid? That always causes me to flush.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
She did suggest taking aspirin a couple hours before I take the antibiotic to reduce the flushing so that's what I'm going to do.
Benadryl is also your friend. Unless you need to stay awake. But it will reduce the flushing significantly.
I felt like long Covid was loosening its grip on me after two years.
Annnd I have Covid again. Totally vaccinated, boosted and bivalented with an rx for Paxlovid and cough tablets that I can pick up now. So I am hoping this won't be as rough. And since I now know I have hyponatremia, I know to keep my electrolytes topped up. I also have a pulse oximeter so I can track.
I felt really bad with body aches early Sunday and am coughing. The body aches eased up for today but I tested as a precaution and it was clearly positive. So I tested again because that makes Covid go away, right? It, my friends, does not.
I'm hopeful I didn't expose anyone but I probably did given I saw my favorite uncle on Thursday and we had a Celebration of Life for my uncle on another side of my family on Saturday. The CoL was mostly outside so I'm hoping that mitigated some transmission.
Oh, crap, Cass, I'm sorry to hear that. I hope it is mild and of short duration.
Oh no, Cass, I'm so sorry to hear that!
Oh, Cass, I'm sorry. I hope that all your hard won knowledge will help you get through this bout with less pain and suffering than previous.
This bout will be much easier, I am sure. We know more, have vaccines now and treatment.
One thing that was amazing is that within 10 minutes of calling my Dr office, I was on a FaceTime appt with my good NP with rx sent to the pharmacy.
{{Cass}} I am sorry. May it be brief.
Oh no!
Timelies all!
I'm sorry, Cass.
