Crap, I had a positive covid test last week but the doc’s office dropped the ball: no one told me. I just found out today when they called to ask how I was, and I asked for the PCR results they hadn’t given me. ‍♀️

Getting tested again today to see if it’s resolved. I was doing so much better on antibiotics that I figured it was just bacterial after all, not viral or a combo. Must have been a combo, and thanks to my triple vaccine, my covid symptoms have been almost zilch.

But I had to inform my boss, and she had to tell my team that there “has been an exposure” and that “we all need to get tested today”. Argh

My safety officer wouldn’t even test me, once he found out about my positive PCR last week, and told me I should go home… but my boss says that’s not required by the new guidelines. Then she said I have covid hours available, so I might as well use some until I decide I don’t have these mild symptoms anymore.

I had basically told her that I have been feeling for a longwhile now like my allergy meds weren’t working, so that’s probably really omicron making me feel like I still had allergy symptoms. Well, guess who gets to stay home for a while? This person . This is like a vacation ffs. Ah, well. ‍♀️
