day 4, afternoon
I am now feeling quite wiped out (plus sinusy) - S. became suddenly and worryingly ill in the late morning, with a temperature spike over 101° and terrible shivering and chills. (And yet he has no other COVID symptoms, nor is he testing positive.) I took him to the urgent care (which is also his PCP), where they were basically ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ and prescribed him a course of antibiotics...but wouldn't give him Paxlovid without a positive test. He started feeling better about an hour after I got some acetaminophen down him, though his temperature is still high. This may be a case of zebras, not horses; an onset that fast is usually food poisoning or the like, I would have thought; but we are monitoring the situation. (After a few days of amoxicillin you'll be shitting your guts out anyways, amirite?)
I've just gone and got his prescription, and now I'm utterly knackered. Answering work email did not help, I am sure. My temp, even immediately after exertions, is down to 97.8, so there's that.
