[@berlinachan6097]

What is your remedy?

[@karma3481]

I hate it idk what day I'm on but I just wanna die of how uncomfortable and painful this is, I'm 14 years old btw

[@ChildOL]

Yeah it sucks, you end up HOPING the sense of smell and taste come back because some people say months later still hasn't came back

[@jooniur5984]

how are u guys doing????

[@genelawsjr5914]

I have 17 in my home who are infected by this virus the youngest is 2 months old and the oldest 55 which is me I have a daughter who is pregnant and due in may please remember us in your prayers..were from the Gila river Indian reservation in AZ it's very very bad here..my creator keep you all safe..

[@sonnyxlbright5904]

I hope the symptoms are bearable with you and your family. The hospitals can't do much for you unless you were dying. Best advice one can give is lots of rest and treat everyone in the family with a daily blast of vitamin D (about 5000iu) and about 50mg of Zinc. Along with that, blend yourself a concoction of lemon juice, lemon zest, ginger and garlic. Two heaped teaspoons of the concoction in a teacup and add boiling water. Stir in some honey if you've got some cough and that should soothe the itch in the back of the throat. Take every four hours and don't forget your antipyretics (paracetamol, aspirin or ibuprofen) to manage the chills and fever. It's what myself and the wife did to get through when we contracted the virus. Not guaranteeing that it would work for you but I can testify that it's got quite a few people I know, the necessary relief to carry on with daily life. Take care and good luck.

Me too. Sunday, at 10th January my test was negative. I was at home alone in quarantine the whole week. Yesterday I had my second test which is positive. I have mild symptoms. I just worry that after 9 days my symptoms can not get worse. My cough and sore throat are better than yesterday. I mean milder. What about your symptoms?

I‘m 23 and never had any health issues. I got corona one month ago and the worst symptom I got was a high resting pulse and palpitations. Went to the hospital after 3 weeks of not feeling any better and I got diagnosed with myocarditis because of the virus. It’s been a month now and I’m still not back to how I was before corona. Please guys take this virus serious!!

My son went to the hospital twice had panic attacks after covid heart racing chest pain and every other symptom. He caught from taking care of me and my husband. But I heard that long haulers that got vacine there symptoms went away and they did thank god he was so bad. My husband has copd he went to hispital right away and stayed there 3e weeks. They were very certain he would be ventalated because he wouldnt respond to anything but he pulled through. I had really bad covid coughed so bad I got a hernia, diarehia, headach severe body aches, had to take hydro for pain ,couldnt walk to bathroom so lethargic, lost taste and smell couldnt eat just crackers so I could take pills. High heart rate oxygen level 88 at times but went up fever everyday.

Plus being young and healthy just means *reduced* risk, not eliminated risk. Look at the then 16 year old (the video is somewhere on KZbin) who was hospitalised twice (with no underlying illnesses as far as I'm aware) early on. I really hope your sister makes it through, I'll be praying for her

[@HeartandSoulApothecary]

Gratefully you had mild cases and am grateful you had a full recovery.

[@bootsarmstrong8421]

Maybe this is why the virus is spreading so rapidly because many of the symptoms could be confused for something else.

[@alisonr9594]

I think so. And the symptoms for so many of us are very mild.

[@Carol-Bell]

Yes and I think that is why a vaccine is such a good idea (with the caveat of adequate testing, which it sounds like the Pfizer one has, but I wonder about the Moderna one). By the time you realize you have COVID, you have already spread it...

[@anonymoususer7602]

yup, an thats exactly why scientists have told us from the very beginning not to do unnecessary interactions with others, so that we don't unknowningly spread it...

[@RyanSpenceCoaching]

I agreed. I just thought I was overdoing it with work and didn't realize I had true fatigue. Then I had a trip I was planning to go on that I had to cancel because I didn't know if I had COVID or if it was just a regular cold.

I had covid three weeks ago positive. Started just like you congested, slight cough, headache on one side of head for two days, and in day 3 I lost my taste and smell for 6 days. Horrible. My entire family got it and thankfully we all got it mildly. My husband and twins (they’re 7) never lost his taste or smell but myself and my oldest son (16) did 🤷🏻‍♀️. Thankfully we are all feeling so much better.

Thanks for the video! This helps so much 🙏🏾❤️ I’m fully vaccinated Day 1: Throat irritation Day 2: Fever, Throat irritation, fever, headache, aches, congestion, weird smell, a little chill Day 3: Congestion, weird smell, fever Day 4: Weird smell, congestion Day 5: Smell is a little decreased Day 6: Smell is a little decreased Day 7: Smell is still on and off but not terrible. Let’s see the next 7 days 🙏🏾😬

[@saga4353]

What do you mean by weird smell? Like your sense of smell was off or you were smelling something weird? I had both actually, which is why I ask. I had this weird smell like it was penetrated in my nose. Very odd.

Same for me! Days 2-5 sucked the most

I had Covid about a month ago. I never lost my sense of taste or smell but everything I ate tasted bitter so I barely ate anything except fruits, veggies and tea for 2 weeks. Definitely had severe headaches, fatigue, and high fevers. My roommate who also tested Positive had some unusual symptoms besides the common one. He did have cold feet, sore wrist, and hair loss for 3 weeks. We are doing better now. Thanks for posting 🙏 Stay safe!

You can self care at home without seeing a doctor. I've seen people on line talk about it. I hope you and your hubby are feeling better each day. Blessings to you and your hubby🙏

[@LeighPhillips78]

Yes, if you have a mild case. But aside from the respiratory problems we can monitor, there are some things we cannot see--the virus coagulates the blood, which can result in blood clots and dangers to the cardiovascular system and brain. My Uncle stayed at home as long as he could, and then the respiratory effects became dangerous enough to warrant the hospital. He spent three weeks there on oxygen, possible intubation...this was before they let some families see their loved ones in hospital, so there is much to imagine and endless grief. He lost his fight. He has never lost a fight in his whole life. Turns out my aunt ended up having a mild case of the virus at the same time he did, and she has an autoimmune disease , is more fragile. I was shocked that she came out on the other side of it fine and my uncle, a Navy man & firefighter, died from Covid in April. There are mild cases, and there are cases that require hospitalization. Taking temperatures before taking tylenol is important. It is a good clear indicator whether a patient trying to recover at home needs to relocate to the emergency room. If the fever is too high, it is telltale sign to go. The body is struggling too much to fight the infection, and very high fevers can leaf to brain damage & death. Since I have lost family to Covid, if I catch it I'm going to the hospital. My uncle's death destroyed the family and the last thing I want is to pass it on and be the person who ends up getting through it okay, while my partner, or my parents don't make it. I do not get flu shots each year but I WILL take the vaccine. This has to end somehow. I'm scared, but my family now is completely isolated from one another until Covid is gone. I don't want to lose years to this and never see my loved ones again. Sorry for the ramble, but I was just responding to recovery from home. It works for mild cases and family must be totally isolated away from the Covid Positive patient and that requires being super vigilant. The other point I had was again monitoring the situation by thermometer and Tylenol should absolutely be used, but take temps between doses to ensure the fever isn't exceedingly high--if it is, the body is struggling to fight the disease and again if it's exceedingly high, the body isn't winning the fight and might need a lot of extra help at a hospital.

[@marshazeldin2350]

My son is living in a house with Covid rn. So far he’s negative. Glad that you are better

[@g2bk]

My symptoms were very much different for the most part. I had a little cough for two days and a bit of a scratchy throat. I also had a massive headache for two days and extreme fatigue. At that point I was refused a Covid test because I did not have ‘normal’ symptoms. My other symptoms started late on day 2 and continued for 4 days. Burning body aches. Pain in my arms, legs, feet and back. Neck ached and cause a minor headache at the base of my head. Also a fever of 102 degrees, steadily for all 4 days. I could not eat because the pain made me nauseous and it was really too much effort. In actuality, it was like going through chemotherapy again. I almost called for medical help twice, but decided against it. It was so bad my son in KS was packing to come to Florida. Then after day 4, it was gone. I still was fatigued but I could get up, sleep, and eat a little. On day 8, I was very much better and my doctor was still trying to get my county to give me a test. It was decided since I was better it wasn’t necessary. The antibodies test was how we determined it was Covid.

[@scruffyscrubs5468]

Your symptoms are pretty much in line for what my daughter experienced and she had it for about a week and a half. Her taste and smell came back several days after that. She's about your age.

[@davidjam82]

Thanks for sharing I tested positive on Monday after feeling ill over the weekend and losing taste and smell and now I feel completely drained and finding it difficult to stand long feels like I’ve been hit with a truck 😔 prayers to anyone having to go through this and ones we have lost.

[@lostlatinlover]

While this helpful and well intended. If these are your symptoms, you are suffering mild/modest symptoms. I started having symptoms the first week in March (thanks to a friend that went to NYC in February for her birthday party with friends). I don't want people to think your mild symptoms are typical; they are not. It took me nearly three months to "recover". In June I had three brain MRIs to confirm those intense headaches that came with COVID were in fact mild strokes. I have also suffered heart damage and still struggle with the simplest of tasks. Worse yet is the ongoing "brain fog" that many others report. In all I am very lucky to be alive because I am 65 years old, diabetic and Hispanic; all those worked against me.

[@lostlatinlover]

I want to add to my comments that the loss of taste and smell vary greatly. For me, it seemed that NOTHING tasted right. Plus I simply could not eat. I was so very very fortunate to have my personal doctor living across the street, my wonderful son and his wife and my neighbors John and Maria checking on me twice each day for weeks and weeks and bringing me food and basics (like TP). I KNEW that I was finally on the mend when the SONIC Burger my son got me tasted AMAZING!

[@marylouclearwater7475]

My Sister got covid 19 a d ended up with pneumonia and in the hospital on a ventilator to help her breath......also in a coma lasted a little over a month and passed away on Dec.1st........It was such a sudden shock because she was doing great for about two days.......started retaining fluid and her organs were shutting down, blood levels were very low, little to no brain activity, blood pressure dropped into the teens and no response when they squeezed her hand and whatever else they did. She was from Iowa and 66 yrs.old...... .MISS HER SOOOOO VERY MUCH!!!!!!!!!!

[@Telthecelt]

Yes, glad you came through it without serious effects. I’m senior in U.K. who’s convinced he had it one year ago before it was officially over here. I had fever, persistent dry cough that had me aching and sleepless, and the loss of taste/smell resulting in nausea that had my doctor at a loss to find a cause. The fatigue was awful: I could barely drag myself upstairs . If I did have c19 I put my survival down to my general fitness which didn’t return for at least 12 weeks.

[@Josh-Kim]

Appreciate you sharing, Amber!! It’s interesting how everyone has a different combination of symptoms, if any at all. Hopefully you and Jacob only get better from here!

Thank you so much for making and sharing this video. I was vaccinated and got it last week. I'm on day 8 and today was the first day I felt well enough to go outside and check the mailbox. It's been rough but not impossible. I'm a healthy 41 year old. My exhaustion was high, congestion, coughing up mucus, slightly elevated temps, lower oxygen level (the lowest was 90-92 for about 2 days. I really think today I'll start to be more myself.

[@sheiladyck5863]

We live in Montana, my husband tested positive for Covid about 3 weeks ago, around the same time you did. Luckily he is recovering, because he has had 2 heart attacks, has 2 aneurysms and is pre-diabetic. He is 61 years old. He never lost his smell or taste but had numerous headaches, chills and hot flashes/sweating and extreme exhaustion and weakness. Now he is just dealing with some lingering tiredness and muscle aches. I took care of him and have been around him at all times since even before his symptoms showed up. I have tested negative for Covid - TWICE!! I can't believe I was spared from getting Covid, especially since I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and other autoimmune issues. Happy to hear that you are getting better! EVERYONE'S symptoms are different with this darn virus - so weird! P.S. I have RH Negative blood type and have read some interesting articles about people with this blood type having some kind of protection from Covid - maybe that is why I didn't get Coronavirus?!

Thank you so much I'm going through it now: Day 1 - sudden onset of chills and felt feverish. Day 2- Headache body & joint pain & malaise Day 3 - loss of taste smell minor sore throat. Day 4 - no new symptoms just extremely sluggish. Day 5 - 7 no new symptoms on the road to recovery I hope. For me what was alarming is how fast and out of no where these symptoms hit me thats whats scary please take this seriously! God Bless You All 🙏

[@wilrivera9453]

How are you doing now ?

[@ohdeergod]

Just got a positive test result today :( Day 1: Felt fine in the morning, started feeling achy, chills and tired by the evening. Day2: Bad headache, body aches, chills. Slept most of the day, after waking up fever had arrived (100.5). Loss of appetite. Slept another 12hrs. Day 3: Tested positive. Fever and mild nausea comes and goes in waves. Head ache is gone. Developing a mild occasional cough. No loss of taste / smell yet. Praying my symptoms remain mild...still have several days ahead that im sure will be unpleasant at best. Wishing everyone who has it the best of luck and a full recovery!

A month ago, my wife tested positive and she had a lite cough and was tired for a week. I had no symptoms. We are both 70. But similar to what the lady said we got hit with something a year ago that gave us both really intense bronchitis and laryngitis. My wife got tested and it was the common cold.

[@joselyn4789]

I tested positive today. Started experiencing symptoms 4 days ago. Day 1: body aches and headache Day 2: AWFUL headache, body aches, chills, sore throat, low grade fever. 100.5 Day 3: headache, stuffy nose chills body aches getting slightly better. Day 4: sore throat, sporadic headaches, fatigue. I get tired very easily.

[@monicatorres3559]

Your recount of covid is exactly how mine went. I’m on day 14. Lost taste and smell for 7 days. Thank god it’s back!! Glad you’re ok!

[@carolesmith9235]

Your presentation helped me understand and my only question is about your sense of taste and smell. I hope they return soon. Thank you for sharing. You did a wonderful job!

My sense of smell and taste have come back, but not fully yet. I probably have 50-60% back!

[@justbenelson]

I'd like to speak on behalf of a fully vaccinated 39 year old male who currently has it in September of 2021. I'm convinced my wife and all three of my kids had it before I contracted it, but their symptoms were mild and short-lived, including my T1 diabetic 8 year old daughter. My first symptom was a mild sinus irritant that felt very similar to the beginnings of a common cold. Day 2 my sinus area and throat were infected. Day 3 I was surprised to feel a lot better. Day 4 I woke up still feeling well but as the day went on my sinus area felt like it did on day two. Day 5 I woke up feeling like I was battling a bad head cold and I was sneezing a lot. I took a nap in the afternoon and woke up feeling like I had the flu, complete with body aches and lethargy. Day 6 I woke up feeling good other than my ongoing sinus issue, so I did some yard work. Lunch didn't seem appealing and I could tell I was starting to lose my sense of smell and taste. I took a nap on the couch and when I woke up I again felt like I had the flu but twice a bad as the previous day with a fever of 101+ degrees...which brings me to day. I woke up with my nose running like a faucet and I'm completely congested. I'm a bit dizzy when I walk and I can now feel some pressure on my chest. I'm sooooo ready for this to be over with, but I'm just thankful the rest of the family didn't experience the gamut of symptoms I'm experiencing. I wish I could experiencing an alternative universe what I would've experienced if I hadn't been fully vaccinated with the Pfizer shot. Would I be in the hospital right now on a respirator or would I be experiencing the exact same symptoms? I'm curious because I'm experiencing just about everything any normal, healthy 39 year old unvaccinated male would typically experience - expect perhaps it's the Delta variant I have but the data doesn't necessarily conclude (as of right now) that it's more deadly than the other variants.

[@AmberAlpine]

I have two more videos about our COVID experience. In these videos I answered 8 of the most common questions I've gotten about our COVID experience. Days 7-10: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKm3aJWVmN2SaJY 6 Weeks Later: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iIuwoIh_o7Gcq7s Recently, I’ve been receiving a lot of comments, asking if I was vaccinated when I got COVID. I had COVID in November of 2020 before vaccines were available, so I was not vaccinated when I got COVID. I am now vaccinated.

My sister died two days before Thanksgiving from Covid. For the last 4 or 5 days I've been sickly feeling. I got a test yesterday and have to wait for the results. My symptoms: achy feeling, loss of taste/smell, a congested feeling in my chest, no energy, no real fever to speak of. I am hoping that all I have is a cold. Fingers crossed.

I’m on day 8 of COVID and for me, the cough has been the worst; it is hacking, dry, and unproductive. I’ve also had diarrhea, severe chills/body aches, and a horrible sore throat. Congestion, loss of taste, painful headaches, and a burning nose-like in my nostrils, which I’ve never felt before-have been other symptoms for me. The exhaustion and fatigue has been awful too.

[@h.m.8696]

I was diagnosed with Covid two days. ago. Fever, chills, absolutely freezing. It's like I cannot get warm. Coughing, muscle aches, tiredness, stuffy nose, sore throat. I feel a sadness, loss of appetite.

[@shaheedawilliam498]

My symptoms day one was a stream of mucus running down from my upper respiratory track draining down into my throat. Next morning I woke up with palpitations and very breathless. I barely made it to the toilet. I forced myself to boil some herbs and as these came to a boil I noticed that the vapour (NOT STEAM), gave me some relief. (I had just mild throat irritation, no headaches, thank God!) I drank the concoction, rubbed black seed oil mixed with eucalyptus and clove oil and started doing breathing exercises as I forced myself to cough out the phlegm. The palpitations receded and I felt sleepy so I slept for about 45minutes to an hour and woke up gasping for breath. I started the whole cycle all over again. For the next 5-7 days this was my life. I made sure I did physical movements to get my circulation going in addition to using essential oils to help with this. I made a pot of lentil soup with a good amount of garlic, ginger, Cayenne pepper, tumeric, black pepper. I chewed dried chamomile mixed with black seeds to break up mucus. I got the secondary infection, I could tell because I started to cough up yellow phlegm.. I used Tea Tree oil, clove oil, eucalyptus oil, peppermint oil in a carrier oil to rub on my back and chest. I also inhaled these oils during my deep breathing exercises. The yellow in the phlegm cleared after a few days, I can't remember how many days. By day 9 I thought I was over the worst of it. Day 10 it was back except for the secondary infection. I continued with the therapies through out. I was more or less clear by day 14. This was in July. I still continue with the black seed oil and chewing the dry black seeds and chamomile also a few drops of the black seed oil. Covid is brutal, its no joke, I prayed throughout!!!

[@jaquancrump7316]

Yo I have a question?

[@snowblo1]

Wow, thanks so much for that detailed description. I'm now going through Covid for a second time & this time around I've lost my sense of smell. So devastating. And I'm wondering where I can get dried chamomile? From the tea bags? I've also got some excess mucus going on.

[@stephanieescobedo5147]

@shaheedawilliam Hello, I’m glad you were able to get through this. I’m praying everyday I get through this as well. I’m on day 5 and I feel as though I might have came down with pneumonia bc I can’t stop coughing and I have somewhat of a yellow phlegm when I cough. May I know which herbs you used to make your tea?

[@tthinker9897]

Thank you for sharing your COVID experience. This will help me know the red flags. I am 71 and healthy but my spouse is 75 and has all the major co-morbidities that lead to a bad outcome, so if I have a hint that I am positive I will do all I can to isolate, though that will be quite difficult as I am the caretaker.

My son tested positive yesterday, but he has no symptoms. I feel okay just slightly tired, with a sporadic cough. Thanks for the video, take care.

[@cynthiahallowell1041]

Day 1-2: horrible body aches, like I was in an accident. Slight headache. No appetite. Day 3-4: felt ok, worked both days, didn’t feel good or bad. No appetite and diarrhea started (this continued for 2 weeks, lost 18lbs). Night 4: relentless chills. Had 3 thick blankets and heating pad, teeth still chattering. Day 5: started fine, felt ok, worked until noon when a wave of fatigue hit, couldn’t keep my eyes open. Slight cough. Day 6: fatigue, slept most of the day. Went to bathroom in the middle of the night and got so lightheaded that I had to lay on the bathroom floor with my feet up for 5 minutes. First clue something was wrong. Day 7: felt ok, but still very lightheaded and had to lay with my feet up for a bit before I could head downstairs in the morning. Second clue. Didn’t feel too bad, just general blah. Slept on the couch that night since it was more comfortable for some reason. Day 8: woke up feeling good, like this thing was on its way out. Felt normal. Later in the day, started feeling blah, but no specific symptoms to mention. Day 9: woke at 4am feeling like my entire midsection was turning to concrete, hard time taking full breaths. I have sleep apnea, a few times I dozed off, I awoke with a blunt start…normally I don’t wake up during the night. I knew if I fell asleep again, I might not wake up. Went to the ER. Immediately put me on oxygen, O2 sat in high 80's (though our sensor at home had said 93-94 all week), X-ray tech said, “these lungs are junk”. They admitted me to the hospital with hypoxia and Covid pneumonia. Was in for 8 days. I never really had much of a cough or trouble breathing…until I did. As soon as I felt lightheaded, I should have gone to the ER since it seemed an indication that I wasn’t getting enough oxygen in my blood, despite breathing fine. Another symptom no one mentions is this complete apathy toward life. My husband experienced it, too; the hospital nurse said a few Covid patients on my floor mentioned it. We had no desire to look at social media, our iPads, the news, TV, read, eat…we literally could have sat and stared at the fireplace for days like a zombie. Some interest has returned, but still none in the news or social media (and we were junkies of both). Also, after the hospital, had about a week of awful nasal drip non-stop (week 3). I had wonderful doctors and nurses and I’ve been home for 2 weeks feeling fine. Walking on treadmill, riding my stationary bike. They treated me with Remdesivir, an anti-viral, and steroids. I pray that other issues don’t come about from the virus or the treatment. This is a nasty and sneaky virus.

[@pyabs2234]

My wife's sense of taste and smell went for about 6 weeks afterher infection. Now and again she will smell smoke even though there is none. It seems that women tend to lose their sense of smell and taste more than men from what I have heard. I never lost my sense of taste or smell but my symptoms lasted around 18 days and by day 14 my breathing became worse. Paramedics had to come round to check my oxygen levels as they were worried that the may have fallen. I started to recover after that. But it was scary, don't want to go through that again.

[@dabeezkneez8716]

Oh dear, glad you're recovered. What is it about smelling smoke when there is none? That is happening to me!

My dad tested positive for Covid19 three weeks ago. He mentioned that he helped a new worker at work do some stuff. The next day, the worker didn't show up to work due to sickness. My dad was send by his boss to get tested that same day. It turns out, my dad had it. 2 days later, my mom started to show the symptoms, then me, and my brothers. We all got infected. At first, I was taking care of my parents because I was not feeling that bad, and was doing house chores, and taking care of my little sister while they were sick. In a week, everything went down the drain. My dad's condition worsen, so we took him to the hospital where he is still in critical condition. I started to feel worse too. I was coughing a lot to the point that I would vomit blood. I was not hungry at all, had chills, and then I couldn't breath. My brother rush me to the hospital where they detected a pneumonia. They stabilized me and send me home. I feel much better now, but my dad is still in the hospital. I just hope my dad gets better, and recovers soon. I cant believe all these happen in 3 weeks.

[@svenkamog2232]

Excessive belching with diarrhea for 3 weeks, then full blown high fever and severe flu like symptoms. Night sweats for six weeks where my bed clothes were absolutely soaked every night, and waking up 3 - 4 times in the night gasping 😲 for air. 18 months later still suffering with stomach pains, chronic fatigue and acid reflux that just won't go away. It's true what people say we take our health for granted, and you end up wanting to cave your skull in through frustration... 😞

[@carolgleeson8743]

Thanks for the info, Amber, and I am very glad that you and hubby did not get very sick and are on the mend. The younger you are the easier it seems to be to recover. A friend of mine who is in his 60’s did not know he had Covid until he ended up in the ER with stroke symptoms, due to the vascular issues that it can bring on. That is scary! But then again, most of the symptoms are not severe and are so vague that I can see how someone would think they just have a cold or even allergies! Keep us updated on how you guys are doing!

[@robertescobar7781]

I’m on day 8. My symptoms were exactly like yours. Also never experienced a fever. For most of the day I feel fine but once 4-5 pm rolls around I’m extremely tired and need a nap. I do however get short of breath walking up and down the stairs or even simply walking to the kitchen then back to the living room. If I talk for awhile that also leads to shortness of breath. I hope you and your husband are back to good health and thank you for sharing your experience.

I'm sick with Covid now and my hands and feet are FROZE. This is day four for me. Day 1-3 was just a minor sore throat and as of about 28 hours ago, I've had severe body aches and a fever of 102.4.

Thanks, Brooke! Hope you and your husband heal completely. The week befor the big announcement ford Corona Virus, I became very ill, all the symptoms you gave, plus nausea, vomiting and diareah. The roaring headache went on for about 3 days, Fever came and went, around 102, and I was flat in bed most of time. I am 69 and already I’ll with several things and I expect that’s why It hit so hard. Chest congestion and cough. I know it had to be COVID, but my doctor waved it away, since I had no fever when seeing her, a week later! About a month ago, I had a chest ex ray, and result was light pneumonia, with round of meds. If she had checked when I saw her, it may not have turned that way! Stay young and healthy! 🙏❤️✌️

We had someone die where I work. Three others got sick. Two severely, and one minor. I spoke to one who came back to work. It was one who had it severely. She said everyone who got it had completely different symptoms. She said that you couldn’t tell from one person to the other that it was the same virus.

Thank you for posting. I’m 28 and my husband is 32, we are certain we have covid but my test results are taking forever. I’m heading into day 6 of symptoms and had basically the same progression as you, except my day 1 was diarrhea/chills/aches/fever. I definitely thought it would be a ton of coughing but didn’t show up til yesterday. I know there are way worse symptoms people experience, and my lungs are in pain but really missing my taste and smells

I just got Covid and day 3 into isolation. loss of smell and taste which is frustrating. Alot of chesty coughs. Feeling weak and drained. Cannot wait till this blows over.

[@candipoox]

I'm 37 and had it alot different. I had no cough, no fever, no headache, or loss of taste/smell. I had severe head congestion, extreme fatigue, and had a horrible time catching my breath. That was the most unusual symptom. I couldn't walk without getting completely winded. It was super scary. Another scary symptom for me was a sudden pain in my left chest that spread to my arm. It felt like I had broken a rib. The doctors think it may have been lung inflammation/pluerisy. That scared the crap out of me. I thought it was a heart attack at first. The pain was severe for one night then became mild for about a month after. My fatigue also lasted for a couple of months (although not nearly as severe as the 10 days I was sick). ( FYI: I am of a healthy weight and no underlying conditions)
