Yesterday about 4:pm, I got hit HARD with a fever. I've had the flu many times so knew what I was in for.

Walked to the store to get some meds. As I walked it got worse and worse. Very difficult to make it home.

When home, I got severe chills. I drank a bottle of gatorade, took a bunch of Vitamin D, and layed down under 3 blankets. (I opted not to take the meds I bought and just wanted to ride it out.)

By 7pm, I woke up, and it was gone!!! (Not complaining.)

WTF?

Eventually, several months later.

What's funny is that I didn't notice any loss of smell at the time I was actually sick - it was a couple of weeks later. That's when I thought, "Ah, must have been corona." And it wasn't shit overall.

Little bit scary at the time because I was wondering if I was going to end up on a ventilator, but in reality it was a bad 24 hours and then back to normal.

I've had colds that were worse.
