Well it's not covid according to the RAT, but I feel like I've been hit by a truck. Dizzy, muscle ache, exhausted, no appetite. What a waste of a weekend and EOFY team dinner.

Influenza (not referring to the cold) can be deadly. If you need to, go to the ER. Better being safe than sorry.

Look after yourself bro, make sure you drink plenty of water and have some bread (I lose my appetite when I'm sick and eating makes me nauseous, bread is generally pretty neutral and settles my tummy, anecdotally).

If you're able to, have a shower and lie in bed. Rest up, and water water water.

Sending you good vibes ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ

A friend of mine recently thought she had covid - turns out she'd gotten RSV! Might be worth looking into.
