Despite being vaccinated and boosted, I still managed to catch omicron lately. I work up at 2:00 am with symptoms, took an at-home COVID test, and it came up positive.
The next couple days weren't so great. My eyes ached, my head was throbbing, and my throat felt like someone was attacking it with a carrot scraper. Have you ever been swimming and breathed in water instead of air? My nose felt like that for three days.
My work was incredibly supportive and my husband was a saint. I've been staying in the guest room to quarantine. He brings food, ice, water, vitamins and food to my door, and checked my temperature and blood oxygen level intermittently.
This is what hubby love looks like in the early morning: sugar-free ice coffee to ease my raw throat:
My current status/appraisal of omicron is summarized by the picture below. I'm looking forward to returning to work tomorrow!
