When You Suddenly Feel Like Crap Minutes Before Bedtime

Just about 30 minutes before bedtime last night I started coughing, then I got a headache, followed by a mild sore throat, fatigue, and then nausea.

This all hit within a span of 10 minutes. I took some Tylenol, a whole bottle of water, and crawled off to bed for a very uncomfortable night.

This morning, I felt a bit better, although the sore throat persisted. Got up to get some food, then discovered I had no energy at all.

Now I’m beginning to wonder if I’ve finally caught COVID. I’ve avoided it so far.

First test: Negative.
