Update: due to covid-19, my surgery for reversal of the colostomy has been postponed indefinitely. I was told fifteen hours ago and during the call I could only say "yes" and " no" and "I know." Even though I knew it was coming, I was still in shock.
I had the symptoms for several days anyway, and may have had a case of coronavirus; mild fever, cough, headache, body aches. I chose to try to tough it out and think I may have succeeded, except for this headache that hasn't lightened up in over three days. It feels like the ridge at the top-back of my head is going to explode. It's been hurting so much that I can't sleep at night and finally exhaustively fall asleep in the mornings, then sleep for five or so hours.
