Fibromyalgia Flare-Up After Covid Diagnosis

Covid and fibromyalgia do not mix. My husband was diagnosed with covid on Tuesday. Well earlier today I started getting chills and feeling cold, headache and congestion... Now I keep getting shooting pains that won't stop and EVERYTHING hurts. Any ideas what works to combat the fibro flare?

I like to take hot baths with some epsom salt. I use a weighted heat pack and take 600-700 mg acetaminophen. THC also helps. Then I crawl into bed with the blinds shut and humidifier on. Not the most clinical answer but that's what helps me.

I drank a ton of Electrolytes and took zinc, magnesium and cold medicine and that seemed to help a bit when I had covid in April, I wish you quick health, covid is horrible ❤️ Lots of rest
