If you really don't want to take a week off, then I suggest you just do a very low intensity workout for a week. I understand the anxiety; you have seen me when I don't lift for a week...

I was stronger in a couple of lifts after I took a week off. I made sure I continued to eat approximately the same amount so that my body didn't catabolize any muscle. I didn't do any cardio when I took off, but I can't see it hurting anything...
