Thank you for asking, Rainbow. 
No, I haven't had a lab draw because I think I've caught something. I haven't been this sick in about 9 years. I had the nausea going on for some days until Sunday night when I got violently nauseated, vomiting, etc. Praise the Universe, the nausea seems to have abated. Now my stomach is just a wreck and I think I'm running a fever. And chills. More than anything, absolutely fatigued. Could sleep for a week.
I don't think I have covid, although both receptionists at my therapist's office were sick, tested positive for covid a week ago, and have to be out. There's one receptionist in particular that I spend time talking with and there's no plexiglass, she's just behind a counter. So it isn't impossible that I have covid - and I'll tell you what, if I do I'm sure glad I was vaccinated + 2 boosters, because I cannot imagine being any sicker than this and not being hospitalized.
But, who knows. I may just have a virus. Ugggh, I had a dream that I had AIDS. Always a terribly sad, upsetting memory for me...my father lived in San Francisco between 1975 and 1988, he was an interior designer, and so, so, so many of his colleagues either died of AIDS or were close to men who did. And I have several friends who are HIV+ - although the treatment now is a miracle. A blessing.
Anyway, the AIDS memory crept into my dream.
It's going to take a while to recover from this thing.
