here<\/a>. But what happened after that was\u2026 I came back and started wheezing that night we returned to Sg. Not too bad. It only happened whenever I lie down. Oh yeah, epic cough started on the way back to sg\u2026 And it just constantly felt like there was something stuck in my chest\/throat but wouldn\u2019t go away, and no amount of coughing made a difference. Next morning it was the same. Went to the doc and got an asthma inhaler. <\/p>\n\n\n\nThen after coming back from the doctor the fever started. And the chills. And then the throwing up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Found out the next morning that sis was covid positive. Yeah. All that was the covid. How much of it was bronchitis? Probably just the cough and wheezing?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The fever broke after the first day – before I knew I actually had covid\u2026 That was Thursday. Friday I tested positive, as did later everyone else in the family. So plans to meet my cousin who came back from Thailand were obviously cancelled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I didn\u2019t test myself today, but my dad is not positive anymore, his ART test lines were already pretty faint yesterday. Mine was still strong. Not as strong as the first day I tested, but still there. And gosh the coughing. The coughing got pretty bad last night. It hasn\u2019t been a week since the wheezing either and I\u2019m still feeling that tightness\/lump right in the middle of my chest. At least there\u2019s been no more wheezing, but I have been taking like four puffs on the inhaler everyday. For a week the doc says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At least I haven\u2019t been throwing up for like 2 days now\u2026 It was like the start of last year all over again when I started throwing up everything I ate and didn\u2019t eat. Like air and gastic juice. Still not eating much now, but at least I\u2019m not throwing up either which is a great plus. I\u2019m wondering when to go back to work. Technically I don\u2019t have an MC so I should be back. But what\u2019s the point if I\u2019m gonna be coughing my lungs out\u2026? And still covid positive on top of that. Nah. I will go in for the post doc interview on Friday though. At least I think that is in person. Guess I\u2019ll do the ART test tmr morning and see how that goes\u2026 And maybe message my boss or something. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
What saddens me was that I was on leave!!! All those wasted days off spent being sick. And it\u2019s not like I could cancel those days off either, because I can\u2019t carry over any more days into 2024. Sigh. So stuff like my letter writing\u2026 I just didn\u2019t write any because the idea of coughing covid particles onto the letters and sending them to people does not appeal to me. I tried to do some art on the second day but just didn\u2019t end up feeling up to it. Did some swatches of the Masha watercolors and they look gorgeous, but that\u2019s pretty much it. After that I just stayed in bed watching youtube, reading webnovels, and playing mobile games. And coughing. Oh and naps. Sooo tired. I took a nap this morning after waking up and slept till like 12+pm. Just so exhausted. Been taking like 1-2 naps a day and a lot of times when reading I would find myself dropping off to sleep, but after actually getting ready to sleep (like turning off the lights and taking off my specs) I would feel awake again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
So my plan to do art everyday that I stayed home obviously got disrupted\u2026 Sigh. So many things got disrupted. And now I\u2019m feeling sleepy again\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019d like to do more art in the new year though.. But I\u2019ll leave that for a separate post. This Jetpack\/wordpress app is also really annoying the shi*t out of me. It won\u2019t auto scroll to reveal the new lines, ok fine. But sometimes it just gets stuck there and you can\u2019t even scroll up to see the latest line even if you tried. Either way both are hellya annoying! So done with it\u2026 Having to keep scrolling up every 30 seconds or so is very, very disruptive too. Arghs. I wonder if the Apple Pages app supports publishing to wordpress\u2026 Or just exporting to html is all I\u2019d need actually. So annoying! Ok, that\u2019s all for this post I guess. Till the next one! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
