Before that I functioned ok but had a growing feeling of weakness. Eventually my dull mind connected the dots as I lay down and sunk heavy into sleep awake cycles, and then anytime I had to go to the bathroom I really struggled to want to move. I also had a water bottle and struggled to take sip ever, thirsty or not I just really barely could feel like moving for anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If I got up, it was TORTURE, but after being up a minute or two I could function better, the misery not so much, which reminded me of July 10 I didn&#8217;t feel so good inside, I went out to my garden many times, feeling worse when inside the pressured house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I did that a bit on July 11th and looked around for sticks with my son (for more garden climbing structures.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I had many hours laying down after that, then I really felt cold, my hands were so cold, and I could get warm, then the chills started. My daughter came in and  I asked her to open all my waters and pile them on the loveseat where I was. I also begged her to get the blue comforter in the closet. Big heavy king comforter, oooooooohhhh the loveliness and the heavy warmth, yes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sweating all night, just moaning and misery laiden. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">4:46am today I took acetaminophen My whole head hurt and I just felt awful, but not as bad as before, but now I know the truth at 6:46am, I am light sensitive and pain on left side very migraine-like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hurray. Sick and getting on with it, why not add in a MIGRAINE now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some god awful virus though, not a nice one, not the worst but really sick in July what the H***.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>July 10 was by hubbies birthday.
