Thanks ever so much to whoever suggested I might have covid

I think you jinxed me. Well, at least I feel justified in my whining. The headache/toothache has really been excruciating.

How can the symptoms be so wildly different from the previous time, though!? Last time I had no voice and couldn't stay awake at all. Now I'm mostly awake and carefully rationing out sudafed, but I can even sing.

No, I agree mouths shouldn't hurt like this, and it really hurts a *lot* - until the sudafed kicks in, at which point both the headache and the toothache (and the newly developed earache) die down significantly.

However, if the tooth pain does not let up when I start getting a negative test, I will certainly make an appointment then. The pain is hitting in the jaw pretty much where I'd expect if there were no sinus symptoms - where I have a wisdom tooth crammed in.

Well crap about the positive test, anyway.
