Tested positive for Covid. =(

The nursing home that my Wife is in had an outbreak of Covid. It was in another wing. I went to visit my wife yesterday in her wing and took precautions, mask etc. I’ve been feeling terrible all day. I did two quick tests about an hour apart and they both showed positive. Body temp is 38.2, moderate fever. Light headed with a migraine. Looks like I got it anyway. :(
Add to this that I suffer from severe chronic back and neck pain, and life right now is no fun at all. =( My overall pain level is 6 bordering on 7 out of 10. I can cope with it, with my pain meds. But if it goes much higher I’m going to be in big trouble.

Make sure you take care of yourself, and I hope you feel better soon. Sadly it’s very hard to be really confident that you won’t catch it.

All the best wishes from my side. Incidentally, I also had it (the very first time), starting from first of September. No idea where I picked it up. Only light symptoms, but it took ten days until I was negative again. I hope somebody can take care of you.

It’s just me the cat and the dog here on the homestead. My daughter will be the go to person if need be. Put in a very rough night, but don’t feel too bad right now. Even though I’m talking about it, sitting at my PC and doing forum stuff takes my mind off of it.

Oh dear, that sucks. 🫤

Sending you, your wife all possible well wishes.

Take it easy.
