I’ll just post my experience.
When I began to feel ill I thought it was pneumonia again. It felt the same as before. Doc listened to my lungs and ruled it out.
But, having 3 friends from work test positive I kinda figured it was covid. I spent a lot of time up close with them just before they got sick.
There are 3 strains. I guess I got lucky- it is not severe. Body aches seem different than when I’ve had the flu. I don’t know how to explain it- it just feels different. Ibuprofen does an amazing job of relieving the aches- to where I almost forget that I’m sick, that is, until I begin to sweat. For some reason ibuprofen causes me to sweat.
I lost my appetite for a few days. I did force myself to eat a little which would make me nauseated. I did have small urges to puke. I have my appetite back, but I can’t smell or taste anything. THIS is the worse part. It’s so foreign to me. It is messing with my mind.
Now I just wait it out...
