It seems like it's now my turn. Living alone sucks when you have to deal with this.
That sucks dude. Sorry to hear. Hope you get better soon!
Indeed it does suck, especially when that fuzzy head kicks in and you don't know if you are Arthur or Tuesday.
You are in IT make a list on your phone to remind you to do things like, eat, drink, take tablets.
Stay positive and good luck with everything.

Howzit All
Count me in...tested positive on the 26 June. onset symptoms were terrible fever and headache. Day 4 chest got just slightly heavy but nothing close to bad. Lost some taste on day 5 and surprisingly it was back by day 7.
Kept inhaling steam morning, lunch and night..kept taking ACC200 to keep lungs clear and all recommended meds from the doc and I was all good by day 9. Fevers stopped by day 5.
I didnt vape though for about 3 weeks from the 26 May. My wife got it worse than me with covid pneumonia but is all good as well now. We just have to be so grateful.

Wishing you a speedy recovery and please take your meds. Don't wait for symptoms to get too bad which usually happens towards day 5 or 6.
Thinking of you @X-Calibre786. It must be really difficult being on your own. Take-away deliveries to the rescue - if you have an appetite, that is!
My wife and I have both just come out of this. She tested positive on the 5th July and it was inevitable that I would also develop symptoms, and tested positive on the 8th.
We both suffered the awful headaches, fever and general “funk” of being infected. Jo lost her taste and smell (still hasn’t returned!) but I was lucky enough to keep mine. Frequent monitoring with oximeter, gallons of ACC200 and meals of vitamin c, D, zinc and other stuff became the norm. We were also prescribed Ivermectin.
Family and friends made sure we had food, even though our appetites were non-existent.
The worst, for me, was not being able hug and say good-bye to my son before he left to return to the States. His “vacation” back here was curtailed by lockdown and it was decided it would be best for him to return early. (Shame, the father of a good swimming friend of his, and fantastic all-round dad passed away from Covid on Sunday, which was very sobering!).
We both on our way to recovery. Still a bit snotty and weak, but getting stronger.

May Allah grant shifaa with Aafiyah, what area are you in bid?
Aameen. I'm in Erasmia. There is a community organisation that's been assisting people around here. They have been very helpful, alhamdulillah.
To be honest, I've been working from home and pretty much isolated for the past 2 weeks... I'm thinking I got it from those takeaway deliveries. Only people I've had contact with.
To all that had this or currently has it. Sorry guys. I hope your recovery is good and you get well soon.
Well said and x 2
Wishing you a speedy recovery mate.
Sorry to hear that dude.
Thanks guys. Was really hoping I would dodge this bullet. But I suspect my 4 year old might have brought it back from school.
First thought its just cold from this horrible weather. But then the fever started and my vape became more muted. So decided to go test. And here I am.
But everybody is ok so far. Going to get everybody tested later this morning and see where we stand.

Stay strong mate and do everything right, take what they tell you even if it seems weird, like the Colchicine (gout meds) they gave me. Don't forget to eat and stay hydrated.
Hoping everything goes well for you and family

Got a call from my dr already this morning. Gout meds was already prescribed on Tuesday. But they will up my meds now just for incase.
Thanks everyone. This is like the worst hangover ever. Constantly thirsty and a headache of note. My wife also feel a bit miff today. Going to get them tested this morning.
They say the jab makes the symptoms easier. I do not want to know what its like to have fullblown Covid without the jab.

The symptoms usually peak towards Day 5 - 6. Hang in there!
