I had it, and it put me down pretty quick. I got on ivermectin, zinc, vitamin C and D.
Got a Z pack a week later.
Good luck.

You got it, I was sitting in chair and started getting chills while watch tv one afternoon, fever hit 102 in the middle of the night, only ran fever for about a day. Throat hurt for a few days and body aches. Only about 24 hours of it sucked, just real tired for a good week afterwards, no amount of sleep helped. Can't believe the world is being shutdown over this. I've had sinus infections, colds, and flues way worse.

Are the free tests at Walgreens accurate

I had 2 test from my employer. First test was positive, so immediately they gave me a second test that took a day for results. That test appeared to be more detailed as far as the type of china flu.

I got bad when I was low on O2. That caused a host of issues like insomnia, no eating, high blood pressure. If you can, get one of those little finger clamps that measure O2.

Do you need a test to know that you have a cold or the flu? Get well and get going.

I started ivermectin, D3, C, and zinc as soon as I tested positive, which was 2 days into my symptoms. I don't knownif it was the treatment, or ifnI was going to simply have a mild strain anyway, but it never got very bad for me.

Good luck and I hope you're over it quickly.

Employer wants a test before I can return to work. I believe the tests are spotty at best on accuracy

Take a dose daily for 5 days, then weekly. Stay on your vitamins, add melatonin when you go to bed

Saturday evening 1-15-22 I was suddenly down with 5 degrees of fever and joint and muscle pain all over. I was feeling chills coming and going. My wife is an RN and had the rapid test kits at home. I tested positive. I immediately took Ivermectin and aspirin. The next morning I was improved but still had 2 degrees of fever and 14 hours after the first dose I took another dose of Ivermectin. My fever was gone by the end of the day. My wife came down with it and took Ivermectin also, 3 doses over the next few days.

It hasn't all ended well although my wife got well without complications I had some kind of secondary infection set in creating yellow blood tinged snot and extreme fatigue which is finally starting to resolve but not cured yet. A Zpack slowed that down but then it came back with a vengeance. I told my wife to get me a prescription of Vibramycin (doxycycline) which after 4 days seems to be working.

I had a regular doctor appointment yesterday and got sent home with another inhaler and prednisone with her prediction that my issues were probably going to hang on a while. She was aghast that my wife stood by while I took animal Ivermectin. Since my wife is friends with this doctor and is working in the same system I did not rat out out my bride and tell that she used Ivermectin herself.

A strange thing I thought was that my regular doctor appointment was 1-18-22 but when my wife told them I was Corona positive on 1-15-22 they did not want me in the office. When I was younger you went to see a doctor when you were sick. Now they don't want you. You get advised to go to the ER or urgent care.

I had it a couple weeks back, just sitting in the living room after dinner and the fever came outta no where.

I took a cup of coffee.

Stayed up until it broke, just didn't seem wise to go to bed the way the fever was going, I'm alone just me and the dog.

Next morning I felt soso, cold sweats the following three nights and it was gone.

Friend called a couple days later, he'd got it the same day as I, I'm 15 years his senior.
He's A vaxer/booster type, always bitchin' at me for not.

He freaked out, ran to the emergency room, they put him on some sorta dope and sent him home. He was in bed for a week, back to a urgent-care place a couple times, layed around the house for another week feeling poorly and worried.

His also passed.

We know how we got it, he was hosting 3 high-school kids from out of state that were here for a soccer tournament in Orlando.
He brought them to my place for some camping and fishing.

We were all in the boat together, sat around a fire together in the evenings, three days later BAM, we both had it.

Nothing like my first bout with COVID-19.
I got it when it first got popular.

I'd brought a guy in to from NY to help me with a couple houses I was putting on the market.
Most sure I got it from him, I felt like schit for a couple of weeks.
We were so f'in busy at the time I didn't have time for it.

Treated it with NyQuil and DayQuil, worked everyday feeling like hell.

It too passed.

Mid 60s here, very compromised restprotory system.

Don't freak out and do stupid schit, it's the flu mf'ers.
