UPDATE: The Tylenol wore off, and my temperature went back down. Weird. Raised temp on Tylenol but low temp while not on Tylenol. I wonder if it's one of my other meds causing the rise in temperature. I will need to read up on it and maybe ask my doctor. Seems strange. At least now it's just sinus pressure and a little headache bothering me.
I think I was right in listening to my doctor and staying home. I just wish I had done it sooner because I am sick with something. In the last hour, my temperature has gone from 98.2 to 99.6. If it hits 100, I will contact my doctor for guidance. Actually, it feels like a really bad sinus infection and allergies, but I can't be sure. It all feels like it's in my head and not my chest, but I am getting a tickle in my throat. My temperature will probably go up when the Tylenol I took wears off. Best case scenario is I'm told to continue to stay home. I could be sent to the testing site in Dayton, but it depends on whether my doctor feels I am high risk enough. Maybe she will tell me my symptoms aren't right for Corona virus. I'm not going to think about worst case.
I have a mask to put on for when I need to open my door or go down to check my mail. If I do have it, I don't want to spread it.
