    Welcome to the party! I tested positive on Wednesday. I only have some head congestion and headache. I can't taste or smell either.

    The good part about this that when your wife cooks something you don't like, it doesn't matter because you can't taste it anyway.

    Prayers for a quick recovery, brother!

        Yes
        Tell your doctor you want a weeks worth of decadron

        It will speed up your recovery and kee you out of hospital

        It’s cheap
        One tablet a day

Went to my doctor Friday morning and tested negative for Strep and Flu so she sent me to the hospital for a rapid covid test. 2 hours later she called to confirm that I was positive for Covid. Great.

            So far the only symptoms that are persistent is this fever, muscle soreness and the chills. I do have a little pressure in my chest but O2 stats are staying in the 94-97 range. I have no underlying conditions luckily so maybe the symptoms will pass in a few days.

            Any recommendations on what to binge watch while I'm stuck away from everyone for almost 2 weeks.
            Hope you recover soon.... Do you think you know where you caught it? Do you wear a mask? I guess what I'm asking is.... Is there anything you could have done to avoid it? I think I had it in April (had all those symptoms) but never got tested.

                  I really enjoyed Narcos on Netflix. Also enjoyed the audio book Mr Putin by Fiona Hill

                    I have a personal friend who has it. Only symptom is loss of smell and taste. Thats it. No fever, body aches etc. My moms twin sister went into the hospital for Pancreatitis and she tested positive too. They treated her for the Pancreas and told her to let the covid work its way out. She left the Hospital in under a week covid free and feeling much better.

                          Good luck man. I’m half through my quarantine. Similar symptoms but neither my wife or I ever ran a fever

                              When I had it I binge-watched Narcos, Narcos: Mexico, and Ozark.

                              Watch your breathing and O2 stats. That can go south quick and if it does get immediate medical attention.

                                Prayers for you. I came down with something Wednesday night. Lost all sense of taste and smell, and have sever fatigue, but no fever. Problem is, in Lubbock, I cannot get tested until Monday to confirm. So I just sit and wait. Hope we all make it out of this alive!
