I’m doing somewhat better today. Yesterday and the night before was very rough. Initially, I thought I had the flu given all the symptoms: headache, sore throat, joint pain, etc. It was the annual flu to the letter. But to be safe, I took the test and failed, aka tested positive. The sweat broke yet I have the other annoying crap with the symptoms in decline.
Finally got through to a doctor so I could get the drug of choice, paxlavoid which sounds like a Jerry Lewis noise…pax-LAH-voiden-glavin, nice lady! Due to my other meds, we’re going with these other horse-sized pills called molnupiravir. Better, it sounds more like the estate of a lesser Founding Father…And this is where Thomas McKean lived when not at the Continental Congress, Molnu Piravir. Here he grew cotton and tobacco.
I’m also locked down in the house for a few days, boo. The story of my life, I get the cool kids sickness after it’s no longer in vogue. I hope it helps me shed a few pounds for good.
