Anyone feeling sick with non-Covid19 symptoms?

I googled the symptoms and I don’t match ups My throat, chest feel fine. But I’m incredibly lethargic and my body feels heavy. I’m afraid to say anything because everyone will freak out. Do I need to be careful to quarantine?

Me too! But I must’ve had corona last year post Purim as well as I felt exactly the same. I think it’s just an emotional hangover giving way to physical lethargy

As far as quarantining goes, it doesn't seem necessary if your symptoms don't match up.

Feel better! Wink

I’m wondering if it’s Purim the week of the clock change (I’m still jet-lagged!). I had Epstein barre earlier this year but I literally did blood work last week and everything was fine. I’m literally embarrassed to mention to anyone because everyone who was in contact with me over Purim will freak out over quarantining Sad

Op- I really think that if it hits here we’ve all got it! It’s probably exhaustion. Get a good nights rest (or two) and see what happens!

Yes I am. Since last night I have a sore throat, half stuffy half runny nose, and feverish. Checked if I have fever but not even borderline. Of course I'm not breathing a word to anybody just keeping on eye on myself to see how things play out. But again, I always feel like this for a few days after a stressful period, in this case it was Purim and hectic week bh. So will have to take the wait and see approach.

I started getting nervous today when I wasn't feeling well, and my husband nicely reminded me that I had been feeling this way since the day I became pregnant... LOL

Yes.....all of a sudden this afternoon I got so tired that I just couldn't keep my eyes open and started feeling dehydrated.
Started getting really nervous
Then, I took a step back and looked at the past two weeks. I've barely slept Haven't eaten well. Probably not drinking enough water. My dad's yahrtzeit was last week. The cemetery trip took a huge toll both physically and mentally. Then preparing for Purim. Stayed up night after night. Past 2 nights I've been up until 4 am trying to decompress. So, I'm just exhausted.
And allergies which usually start in April could easily be arriving early since it's been so warm.

Yes but I also barely slept one night this week so I assume my body isn’t happy about that

I'm just getting over a cold. Started with a scratchy throat that then turned into a runny nose and slight cough. Not the slightest fever BH, even though I took my temp often. I'm over it, but still afraid of coughing in public Wink
