Lately, I’ve been feeling really sick — worse than a normal cold. Deep down, I can't shake off the feeling that this might actually be a mild form of COVID, not just an ordinary cold. You see, throughout my adult life, I rarely ever caught a cold. As a child, I used to get sick all the time; my throat would often get infected until I had my tonsils removed. After that, things got much better. Since my teenage years, the only times I’ve caught a virus were directly from someone else — never just from being exposed to cold weather. Usually, when I get sick, it’s the typical stuff: feeling tired, having headaches, a runny nose, a heavy body, sore throat, and maybe some coughing. But this time, it’s different. This time, it feels like I can't even breathe properly — like there’s not enough air. A simple cold never felt like this before.
