20. I think you're right

I've been suspecting that I have had it for the past 2 ~ 3 weeks.

I've been achy & sore, which I've blamed on an old office chair and bad posture. It got worse as the day went on. By 8pm, all I can do is fall into bed.

I've had "traveling pain," which I put down as my arthritis flaring up. Left shoulder for a couple days, then right shoulder, then left knee, now it's in my left heel. This has happened before so I just got through it.

I've had severe stinging in my sinuses resulting in lots of sneezing - well, there's been a pollen alert.

I had a slightly dry and uncomfortable throat last week and a slight cough. I won't call it a sore throat because it didn't really hurt. I blamed a cold front that was coming through.

So... whaddya think? Was it COVID-19? Or just a cold in a 60 year old body?
