Hope you feel better soon Hitech!

Take some vitamin D liquid capsules, about 4000+ iu if you can. It will give you some energy to help fight it.

Surprisingly, this the first year I have not been sick with a cold. Usually comes around Nov-Dec for me.

I've been taking 4000 iu of vitamin D a day and it's really been helping me with energy and focus actually. Especially being out here in Oregon with so much rain.

If you aren't getting better In a day, try to go get Ivermecitin like Brooke said, or HCQ. That should clear it up quickly.

Crud.

Do you know how you got it?

Kids probably.  They are monstrous little biological warfare weapons.  They'll kill us all.  ;)

When I worked with people who had young kids, I was always sick.  Now I work with empty-nesters, I am almost never sick.

Hope you feel better fast, Dale.   I had it way back in March.   Luckily I only felt bad for a couple days.  It sure varies.

Were you tested for the anti-bodies?

Take care HT.
I had it in August, 3 days fever and cough and snore for some days, however one of my friends got it in April, have slowly recovered, but still work only 75% due to fatigue.

Hope you're back on your feet quickly! Did you have a fever? Low oxygen levels?

Had covid pneumonia last month, felt sick jan 1 and around the 20th started feeling better. Lucky my wife is head of respiratory and was able to get a home bipap for me. Once i got the steroids i couldn't stop eating, but still couldn't work up the energy to do much. Only able to work half days 3 days a week right now, just don't have any endurance any more. Any physical activity just burns me out, painted one room at the house yesterday and feels like i did a heavy work out.

Good luck!

Great prognosis. Those I know who've been bitten by this bug say it takes weeks + to regain full energy. Take it slow & easy.

Glad you're feeling better. My entire family got it in early January and it was pretty mild for all of us. We were all back to normal in about 2-3 weeks with our sense of smell slowly returning. Our kids just had a fever for 1 day and then were fine. I had a bad cough for a couple days and then the cough went away and I just felt like I had a regular cold. My wife was very tired and probably took the longest to recover. We know exactly who we caught it from and talking to them and their family it is crazy how everyone had different symptoms to Covid. Some mild and some required steroids at the ER and got pneumonia also. Take it easy and get well soon.
