Re: not coping

I'm so sorry to hear you're in pain @outlander have you called the covid hotline? I wonder if they have any suggestions or do you feel it's something you have to wait out?

Re: not coping

Hi @Paperdaisy @Eve7 How are you both?

@outlander around for a little. Will come and sit with you. A cuppa sounds nice.

Just finished doing the dishes from tea and curled up on the couch. So cold and rainy here today.

Re: not coping

i had a chat to my gp today about it and she said the symptoms im experiencing are more of the moderate covid symptoms and just need to keep an eye on it. i can manage at home mostly though.
some of the pain im in is related to my other medical condition though. i had an infection before i got covid so its all just spiralled into one. i didnt think to call the covid hotline though. maybe if im still like this tomorrow ill give them a call and see if they have some other suggestions, thanks for the tip cause i didnt think of the hotline
