Started feeling low last Friday.
I had the day off to deer hunt but just didn’t feel like going.
Cough and fever started Saturday.
Miserable Sunday.
Tested Monday.
Been coughing all week and extremely worn out.
The scary part for me was the worrying about all of a sudden not being able to breathe.
I’m on the downhill side of it now I believe.
I have no idea where I picked the virus up.
Just thankful that so far, my wife is COVID negative.

Glad everything is better
Glad you're on the mend.
Thankfully you are on the mend. I hope your wife, family, and friends stay negative!
If you can't feel the music; it's only pink noise!
Good that you’re feeling like your over the hump. Did you take anything for it?
prayers
Just cough medicine.
Stay strong Chief. My wife had it and I didn’t get it. Go figure and I didn’t wear a mask.
We had it come through here in July. I didn't get tested, but my secretary did and she was positive. Most of us got through it with just mild symptoms....I was just VERY TIRED with nothing else to show, but a couple people here felt a lot worse. I'm glad you are making the turn toward getting over it. I'm betting a lot of people don't know, but they've had it.
pretty sure i had it late summer im pretty much social distanced all the time by where i live and occupation. wife and daughter had it about the same time they tested pos....i never tested as i'd had to have been ten times more under the weather than i was to even think about seeing a doctor anyways... i started with a headache one evening which i almost never get headaches then just low energy for a a few days kinda normal for me that time of year after going 15 plus hours a day for a few months when i figured it out was one evening i quit for the day a little early as i was tired....anyways there was a new bag of Doritos sitting on the counter so i opened it up and grabbed a couple and went to eat them and couldnt taste them....im like WTF so i looked at one they had the seasoning on them so i went into bathroom and took a swig of mouthwash couldnt taste that either lasted for a few hours by next day most of my taste come back..... fortunately everybody i known that have had were barely sick with similar symptoms....i only know of four elderly people that were hospitalized for a few days all have since recovered
Hope you are back to normal in no time.
I hope you are feeling better. The few people I know that had it only one was hospitalized for a week. Most just felt as described by many here.
i just get concerned about my wife with Diabetes and HPB and her age she is in the prime category for complications.
Talked to a guy yesterday that his whole family had tested positive. Other than the loss of taste and smell it was not near as bad as the year before flu he had. Like everything else 99.6% of the people have few problems and others succumb. It has been way over hyped. If not for the Presidential election this year and it used as a tool to use against foes it would have not near got the pub.
Happy to hear you are doing better now....prayers for continued recovery
Vitamin D is thought by some researchers to cut down on the damage caused by Covid-19. It's something you need anyway so why not make sure to have enough. They are saying they don't think it's as toxic as they used to think.
The Shanghai health department recommended Vitamin C for Covid-19 infections.
Some claim the disease kills red blood cells and the hemoglobin in your bloodstream can reach toxic levels before the liver is able to process it. Maybe a mild natural chelator like whole grains or beans or wheat gertm would reduce symptoms.
Someone on here posted a few years ago that wild ramps can cure almost any illness. They are similar to leeks. I have read on a few sites that leeks can boost the immune system to be more effective against covid specifically, but too much raw leek can cause intestinal bleeding. It might pay to have one or two leeks raw for covid and to set them aside by freezing before getting ill.
