Did you test this to check for COVID? I only ask because the symptoms seem very much like the COVID that is kicking my butt, but I am not sure of the order of your symptoms. My progression was sore throat, congestion, the worst head congestion ever (a little loss of balance, very faint loss of taste), chest congestion, better, and then worse again. I think Christine is an asthmatic too, so I hope she does not go through the "recovery, oh nevermind, not recovery" phase.
