Starting to feel a little better. Not 100 percent again. I think partly why I got sick with Omicron despite vaccines and past covid, was overworked, stressed and very high viral load.
Mostly right now I have intense exhaustion, headaches and low grade fevers - but I seem be turning a corner from the worse of it.
I decided that I am taking a little time off work, until I am def off isolation, but also until I feel okay. It will probably come to taking about week off.
It is not ideal and my work will not be happy with that, but I have been with them loyally through the whole pandemic. I was in tears of exhaustion when they called me in and then when they like you are positive, but keep working. I was like.....I had a moment where I was like about to totally break down.
I feel like in order to keep going and in order to be a strong nurse for my patients, I need to rest and get these headaches under control. But I do feel a little bad, because I care about my patients and want to be there for them.
