Oh, MsM I'm so sorry this all happened.
I currently have a test sitting on the kitchen counter, waiting the 15 minutes. I've been sick as a dog since the beginning of the week. This morning I almost took myself to the emergency room because I couldn't breathe. It's better now, that I finally got some rest this afternoon, but I still have a bad cough.So, what I thought was a bad reaction to getting two vaccinations on the same day, probably wasn't. This seems to be the more likely cause of my and DH's misery. I phoned the pharmacy. I spoke with the pharmacist. He said that Paxlovid wouldn't be useful, since we were vaxed within the last three months. Drink lots of fluids.

Oh no, I'm so sorry. I hope you have a mild case and get well quickly. Hugs.So, what I thought was a bad reaction to getting two vaccinations on the same day, probably wasn't.

For anyone who isn't familiar with the rapid antigen tests for COVID, this is what one looks like when it's positive. C = Control, T = Test.

When did you get Covid? Were you already vaxed?When I got Covid, I felt like I had been run over by a fleet of trucks. There was not a single joint in my body that did not ache. Lots of fluids, lots of sleep, and lots of whining. In two weeks, I was better but it took me another month to regain my energy.
I'm right there with ya. Been fighting this crap since a few days after Thanksgiving. Still hanging on. Lots of chest congestion (was on prednisone for a week) runny nose, coughing, etc. Haven't had much of an appetite, either. It's like I feel hungry, like my stomach is empty, yet I don't feel like eating anything. For some reason the only thing that sounds good right now is a bowl of Ramen noodles. Might have some tonight. Just sounds comforting to me.So... grandson gave it to his mom & sister, sister gave it to her Dad, don't often take a nap, but today... grrrr... got up feeling achy.
I have not had a cold/flu in about 7 maybe 8 years. Not a happy camper right now.
