Current Events > Got a Covid test. Hoping it comes out negative.

(+) Yeah! (+)

I got a really bad fever Saturday, so I went home early and got a lot of rest. The fever went away over the span of a single night but I've been having a bad tension headache, slight dizziness, a bit of a cough, and sourness at the back of my mouth ever since. Work gave me an at-home testing kit that I have to use and mail and told me to stay at home until the results come back, so I'm really hoping it's not Covid.

I caught COVID too, it was really scary thinking I was going to die, but you also did the right thing staying home too.

How are you feeling right now brother (or sister?)?

I caught it about a month ago, I'm very fortunate that I had a mild case. I'm feeling very close to a 100% right now. The only thing I experienced in the last week were headaches, though after blowing out my nose with all the excess mucus those headaches have diminished greatly. Hopefully I can make myself sneeze or something to see if there's any other shit I can get rid of lol

Probably 95% cough is gone finally but I still get headaches too especially when I lay in bed

My lungs have been fucked since July. Best of luck to you folks.

I had covid in late december. It took about 2 weeks for me to start feeling better and a little over a month to fully recover.

Comments like these scare the hell out of me. Come on vaccine companies and federal government! Roll this shit out faster.

I've been frustrated at this whole vaccine stuff too. I'm considered an essential worker yet for some reason I haven't been approved for the vaccine yet, despite some of my co-workers getting it. I guess because I'm in the "younger age group." I'm gonna be really pissed if I have it when the vaccine is within reach.

Edit: I suppose another weird thing I'm having is that I'm sweating more easily now. Though that part may be just a side effect of my immune system fighting whatever this is.

Damn, half a year with this bullshit? I'm sorry to hear that. :/

Has it at least gotten better since July? How fucked up are they if you don't mind me asking. Sorry

I had a mild fever that would not go away from July 3 to the 20th, and it felt like I was at 10000ft the whole time. Fever broke on the 20th and suddenly I could breathe again. No other symptoms during the sickness, but after that my whole chest hurt like I had been coughing for months. Eventually that lessened and it now feels just kind of tight when I take deep breaths. My heart also feels like it got fucked. I randomly can feel it beating so hard it shakes my vision.

Trust me folks, take precautions to not catch this shit.

Covid fucking sucks, I really wish I was more successful in life where I didn't need to share an apartment with siblings. I caught it from my sister who got it from her work. (They had to shut down her work place because of it) Also to the shock of no-one, at least masks work, lol. I probably had it with me when I last worked (last worked on the 13th of January and started showing symptoms on the 14th) and none of my coworkers got it. Especially since I was talking to two of them close by for longer than 10 minutes. So that was a relief >_>

I feel like you obviously done this but it's better to be safe than sorry and ask but... have you gone to the doctor yet? That's fucking scary

It's on my list I swear. I just got insurance in January so I can actually go.
