Amidst all the corona stuff I am ill with something else.
Started out with toothache which dentist said was a slight abscess, prescribed antibiotics. Nearly finished the course now and the pain has improved slightly but not fully. Along with this I've had a terrible headache day in day out for the past week. Presuming it's down to the infection but I've never had a continuous headache this bad before. I can't concentrate on anything. Painkillers do help a bit but only if I'm taking them consistently on a 4 hour basis which isn't great for my stomach!
Now I've got earache and a sore throat on the same side as my abscess and am wondering if the infection has spread or if it's something new.
I feel utterly pathetic. Dp is running out of sympathy and I'm not sure what to do next. I'll finish the course of antibiotics on Tuesday. Do I wait til then and see how things are? Worried that surgeries may shut or well have to self isolate due to coronavirus at some point and won't be able to get more medication if necessary...
