I’m sick and my OCD (intrusive thoughts) has skyrocketed. Does being sick make y’alls OCD worse?

Is this a thing?? OCD worse when sick?? I have some kind of bad cold idk exactly. But my rumination is SO much worse, and I keep waking up from naps drenched in sweat and heart pounding out of my chest because I’m so panicked by the intrusive thoughts/fears. This is pure torture.
