So, I got COVID

whatever you had Don't Afraid Be strong.

Both will recover soon Mate. Don't worry
 
All the best to both of you.
 
Thanks to everyone for your support! It means a lot!

If you were to compare this with one-week flu, what would you say?

For my dad that has his lungs impacted, much worse than a flu. So far I only have stomach discomfort and nausea.

get well soon mate, I lost an extended family because of COVID, hope this pandemic over soon

Sorry to hear that man. And thank you!
 
I still can't taste food a week after getting the corona, welp, at least I'm alive.

Best of luck my g.
 
Dang man I hope you and your father both get better. From what I’ve seen most younger people turn out okay if they don’t have any preexisting conditions
 
So, I got Covid from my father. He already had symptoms from the beginning of Aug: a bad dry cough and later developed fever as well. I started getting symptoms on the 6th of this month. It started as a strong headache and later that day I got a fever and felt very tired. I took an antibiotic and pain reliever. The next morning my temp was around 37.5°C, but it went away on its own. I am experiencing however, loss of apetite and fatigue. Today I had some soup (had lemon in it) because I thought I needed to take some liquids, but oh boy. I ended up vomiting and had to endure stomach pain and nausea for more than an hour until the medication I took would give its effect. Felt like hell. But now I'm feeling better.

My father on the other hand, though, is a different story. He has a dry cough which gets really bad sometimes and yesterday his temp reached 39.7°C. He also experiences fatigue and loss of appetite and is taking a bunch of meds.

This virus is scary man, and believe me, you don't want to catch it! If you're not concerned about yourself then please think of your family members. Beyond any conspiracy theory, or whether this was man made or whatever, this stuff is real. And it's impacting our lives!
It's all fun and games until you or a family member catches it, so please stay safe and keep those around you safe as well.


Hi VIP

I know the feelings.

Got a mild confirmed in late May. I am live in Vancouver area of Canada. i am a senior 67 with pre-existing conditions so scary, but got some meds and medical equip to help me measure temps. take repeat tests every day and feel little better, stayed home, got virtual and nurse medical visits everyday for my test samples.

took about 5 weeks to feel better. have been back to emerg and all reviewed. so no more bugs in me.

i just thank god i live here in BC Canada. I just do not understand how you Americans are so brave and do it.

good luck guy and everyone. i feel for you so much.
 
Just me. I am 67 yo. My dad dead 20 years ago.

true not nice but just got sideswiped by it I am always wear mask. only leave me home for groceries and such.

In my area of Canada we are lucky because the nurses came to my home, stood outside every morning, tested me and gave me the ongoing results from last day. only 24 hours. I was hooked up thru the internet to the ER and monitored 24 hours for any changes.

And yes it did matter i live in canada and our health system. i do not believe i would be alive if i was in usa. i am a long term diabetic and heart patient.

good luck to all and wear a damn mask and do not bunch up.
 
I am still not sure if I have covid. I am not having dry cough, but I have the usual cold symptoms. We all caught it including my 18 months old son. My wife, my son, our maids; all of them had fever. I did not. It stayed for like 5 days, and it is wearing off now.

I am afraid to go to a covid testing center as I could really catch the virus from there, or spread it to others. Did not take an antibody test yet, because the chances of antibody being present is not high right now. I guess I will buy the kit next week and do a test on myself first.

If this really is covid, then fuck you... you couldnt do shit to me. :p

Thankfully you're all ok now. Let me know how that antibody test goes.

Have you been tested positive?

Get well soon. I was tested positive before, but I had no symptoms at all. Very strange.

Thank you! No, didn't take the test. All symptoms are there, so we're sure it's covid.
Lucky you man. Any chance it could've been a false positive?

Glad to hear you've recovered! If only healthcare was like that all around the world. Take care and thank you!

Could be, yes. I was wondering as well. The chance of a false positive is quite high from what I heard.
 
Get well soon..
Drink more lemon juice as it have vitamin C which is good for immune system.
