I've been in bed with covid since Friday, temp, cough, aches, thumping headache, dizziness, loss of appetite and feeling really rough. I'm immunocompromised due to medication I take so it's hit me like a ton of bricks.
Here's the thing, my temp has been up and down all weekend, I've moved into the spare room and have had a window open to try cool down. It's been no lower than - 1 degrees where we are so it's cold but not anything extreme.
My partner keeps putting the heating on and shouting at me when I ask him to put it back off. Our radiator in the spare room can't be turned off separately.
He says I'm being selfish because he's freezing but he's sitting about in boxers and a t-shirt so to me he could put on more clothes. He says he was too cold to sleep last night but again, he was sleeping in the main bedroom with a blanket instead of the duvet. We also have tons of hot water bottles (he doesn't like them) and blankets. It would be easier for him to heat up than it has been for me to cool down.
He's now decided he's going to his mums if I won't let him have the heating on all day. I said fine on you go, I'm going for a bath to try feel better and he's started going on about me being selfish for that too, what if he wants the toilet when I'm in the bath?
IS this me being selfish?
He knows I'm on medication that lowers my immune system but he never believes that means anything. He's not even checked to see how I feel once this weekend. I was so dizzy last night I had to hold the wall to get to the kitchen to make myself a cup of tea.
Am I in the wrong here or is not wanting the heating on when my temp has been up and down all weekend and wanting a bath (partly cos I'm still dizzy so a shower isn't great) too much to ask?
