What do you call the early days of flu recovery
Is there a word for the first day or two that you start to feel better after having the flu, or something like that, fairly sick and feverish for 3-5 days.
That period when you are well enough to realize how out of sorts your life is, but not quite well enough to really do anything but futilely putter about not actually putting anything really back in order. And every time you try you start to feel sick again.
(if you can't tell that is my current state)
Thank you,

I suggest convalescence which the Cambridge Dictionary gives as
noun
the process or period of resting in order to get better after an illness or operation
with an example
During convalescence, great care is necessary to protect the patient from taking cold.
