Can't believe how quickly I am worsening. Muscles, joints, chest, terrible chills, weak, can barely speak or swallow with the throat pain, what the hell??? Got the Paxlovid, will start with the evening dose at 5. Between the fear of choking again (from way back when), my very small gullet, and water not being as slippery as saliva to get it down, I need to cut or crush any and all pills except for tiny. Paxlovid is not to be cut, there are three pills to take at once twice a day, but I have no choice.
Fingers crossed this progression stops with the medication. New rheumatologist end of March, but after three other opinions, I expect her to agree, no vaccine for me.
Take care!

Oh I am so sorry you are sick again! Please take care, rest.
Praying that you are feeling better soon.
I'm so sorry you're feeling crappy. Ugh! It must be a scary thing to have to take three pills at once with little to no saliva to help you out. You are definitely in my prayers. Please take care of yourself.
Sorry to hear you are feeling so bad-- big hug!
Sending lots of love and healing prayers, Truus from Holland
Can you put pill in applesauce? It might help you to swallow easier.
Sorry to hear you are so sick. My family has been sick seemingly the whole fall and winter with something or the other. Wishing you improved health and better days ahead!
