This is getting weird. I had another episode yesterday where I felt like I might be getting a subtle cold, and also my whole body hurt like all the normal pain signals were amplified. I was doing some physical labor and tweaked my back slightly and it hurt way more than it should have (it's an old injury and I'm familiar with it). All the other random owies hurt a lot worse. No feeling of fever though. Took naproxen and it didn't help. Smoked CBD and it helped. But then I was just absolutely destroyed dead tired and ended up passing out at 9pm barely remembering to take my meds, forgot the mood tracker and all that. Very unusual for me.

Granted I am going through stressful stuff and I'm on a friend's couch right now but typically that would keep me up later, not make me tired in the sleepy way. This is weird.

Last time these physical symptoms happened (subtle upper respiratory ick, exhaustion, increased pain) after a day or so I had a few cycles of extreme brain fog as I mentioned upthread. I guess we'll see what happens but I am getting suspicious of a weird latent infection. The episodes are so similar.
