We just lost my husbands dog a couple days ago. We understand. Also as someone who helps pets every week to cross the rainbow bridge, i see people in your situation all the time. 💗💗 I’m sending love and light

    I know that when I lived in Hawaii, I would always stock up on CC Lemon so I'd have it if I got sick. Or if I wanted the Best Soda Ever.
    This kind of backfired when I went to Japan, as I tried to find something similar in the Family Mart at the hotel, and randomly choosing a "lemon drink" means sometimes you get something alcoholic accidentally. :)

    That sounds exactly like when I had influenza in 2019. It was confirmed for me due to the lucky happenstance that my symptoms started the day I already had a doctor's appointment for something else and I was swabbed to test for flu and use that to help make yearly flu shots. My flu also lasted for almost 3 weeks as well.

    I know how you feel about losing cats in a short period of time.
    I had 2 cats. Buyo (yes i named him after Kagome’s cat) was 16, and his health declined in 10 days before passing back in September of 2020. And how he passed was traumatic for me. But he was my baby boy.
    Emmy (17 yo), she passed in New Year’s Eve morning, the last day of 2021, and she passed in an uncomfortable way in my hands and I listened to her final heart beat.
    Im still pretty wrecked losing Emmy and Buyo, but getting a little better. They were with me for a long time, since my senior year in high school.
    My condolences to you and Mike about Peanut. Love you very much. Take care and feel better. 💜💜

I'm surprised you went for EVE and not Bufferin, pre-COVID I had gone to the Sapporo snow festival and got a migraine from hell and Bufferin saved the day. Also have you tried Pocari Sweat Ion Water? It's lower cal with a lot of the same electrolytes.

    Everytime I visit Japan and felt sick/run down I just tough it out and drink pocari sweat because I am allergic to ibuprofen, my Japanese friends would recommend stuff but most of the time stuff has ibuprofen. Even during Halloween 2019 I got run over while stood waiting to cross the road at Shin-Ōkubo (junction just past the station entrance as you head towards Shinjuku which was under construction at the time) a person lost control of their scooter and ran into the crowd. I cut my knee and elbow up but just refused to go to hospital because of trying to explain no to ibuprofen lol🤣

    Lol. I bought some OTC decongestant from a Japanese pharmacy. I told the person I was looking for an antihistamine. I was given a box with packets of powder just like what you had, but different brand. First, it tasted horrible. Second, I had to immediately sit down because I felt woozy. I think the powder allows the ingredients to hit you immediately instead of a slowly dissolving pill. It worked though! Everything is better in Japan.

    Did you retest yourself later on if you had covid? I tested negative and when I went for a check up after 10 days and complained about chest ache around heart doctor said that's covid because she had the same and sent me to get another PCR test which was positive.
    It's the weirdest sickness I have ever had. I don't for a second believe its origins are natural. At first I had headaches, spinning head, and flu symptoms. After like four days flu symptoms were gone. After six days spinning head was gone and all I had were chest pains which lasted like two weeks, even past the point I was no longer spreading the virus. How do I know? Because people living in the same household did not catch it at all. Since I originally tested negative I just thought it's cold. It wasn't. Every one has different symptoms, wouldn't be surprised if you had it. But early tests can come up negative. I don't blame the doctor for being distant.

    • @reinascully
      @reinascully  Před 2 lety

      I actually just got a PCR test and a blood test (unrelated medical purpose) and everything came up negative for Covid.
