I got it once. I got the energy lapse.

Are you feeling okay? I mean, like no hospital? And is it positive?

No hospital (yet). I just found out this morning. I been sick like3-4 days. I went into the medicine cabinet and got a test. Big positive result.
I couldn't believe it. I though this was all in our rearview.

Surely you knew it was not over.

Does it feel like a sinus infection?

Yes, got it twice.

First time was bad.

Second time was bad.

School is starting up again so here we go again.

Yeah, the schools must come back, they get a government grant on every head in school.

I don't know. No one talks about it anymore.

It feels like a big cold. Cough, clogged nose, headache, fatigue.

I got it once that I know of but I'm not testing anymore so l might have had it more

Did you get a test?

Yeah, I had some already. Didn't think I'd end up using one again.

So you are positive.?

Yes.

I hope you get well, and your job isn't a jerk.

I had it twice.

You had this once before. You surely have antibodies.

How do you feel?

Yeah, thanks.

I believe you have seriosu energy depletion.

What what is like the first time?

MI4_REAL posted...

I believe you have seriosu energy depletion.

Probably. As long as I get over it.

Can you stand or drive?

First time for me was in 2020, I had a headache, stomach ache, sore throat, tiredness, short of breath when moving around too much, smell and taste loss (this symptom lasted for 3 months), ear pain, fever that hovered at 99.9 every day. It took two weeks for me to feel like myself.

The second time was this year in January. I had tiredness, sore throat, and fever again at 99.9. It wouldn't go high or low. Smell and taste loss (only one day this time), short of breath when moving around too much, and a new symptom, pink eye. It took two weeks again to feel good.

Yeah, so far.

Are you taking anything for Covid?

Also, yes, I went through it.It does indeed suck.

How did it feel the first time?

Take in water, chicken noodle soup, and bed.

You can order some chicken noodle soup and 7-UP, the old-school remedies.

Get well soon.

I've managed to dodge it thus far but my area is getting a spike in cases because people are gathering indoors due to the heatwaves.

I have to go now. Good luck.

No. I didn't know there was something to take, besides for the symptoms.

If its within a certain amount of days you can schedule an online doctor/nurse practitioner with Teladoc who can prescribe you the medication for treating covid.

Thanks. The first time I had a fever and my head felt it was made of cement.

Man I feel for you. Because of your job?

I also had it about a year apart, in late May 2022 and early July 2023. The second time was not nearly as bad. I hope you feel better soon.

Its probably a major factor, yeah.

I worked with kids all the way through. Kids are gross.

In fairness, two of those times were asymptomatic. One was like a heavy cold and the other two were pretty awful. Most recently I had it at the same time as dengue fever though, so kind of hard to tell how much of me feeling awful was that and how much was covid.

I got the vaccine as soon as I was able to but dont feel that its really helped all that much.

Never had it knock on wood

Aren't you in Vietnam? When did it become available there and how readily available or limited was it?

Hope you get better and there's no long term issues, get well soon!

I am in Vietnam but Ive only lived here for the last year. I was vaccinated in the UK well before coming here.

All my colleagues have been vaccinated but I think they had to pay for it.

Thanks for the well wishes everyone <3
