Can’t seem to cat h a break and trying not to get discouraged. After slow but steady improvement in the thick secretions, got lots of bridge of nose pain and sinus pressure, some tingling, burning in nose, sounds of gurgling, and nose starting to fill up with gunk again also post nasal drip and inexplicable sleep difficulty . Also sone face tenderness to touch but hsvent tried again today Feels different than the covid congestion
I may have done it to myself inhaling bacteria from plastic cups of items i set up to retrain olfaction. Or perhaps tgere were other sources of bacteria
Im trying to use body temp as a way to gauge if i nerd antioniotic. Was 1.2 deg above usual this morninh but have been running one degree up since covid (ie not back to normal). Antibiotic will be a huge deal and undertaking
I had one coughing fit from the new sinus problem (had 3 with covid) Starts with a tickle in throat is guess from post nasal drip and i get apoplectic. I feel the bp riae so hard in my head that cant be good for my blood vessels. If im stabding up at the time i feel like i might pass out from the weirdness and readiness in head and face. .
Meanwhike the ribs and muscles havent recovered from the last bouts a nd todays coughing fits further hurt those
Putting off taking temp since putting off antibiotic decision
Have also considered breathing in some antibiotic but one concern is i might end up with resistant organisms if i donit half- assed (half nostrilled?)
Everyone else is impatient and thinks i should ve recovering by now. But the dominos are still falling and not confident i can emerge in one piece
Still no olfaction and this isnt helping.
Havent decided if will bother MDs this weekend. Not much they can do except opine on antibiotic use. They too assume id be better by now
Monday i have a virtual appt with an infectioud dolisease doc which i nade when thought i was not improving from covid. Not sure if he will be of use but glad i have the appt
My heart remains odd
Right now not suffering much and will try to think of just that.
