I think I/we might have Coronavirus thread (release your isolation-frustration here)

(I used to be a horrible auditor - boo, hiss!)

PS. Congratulations on the fantasy rugby win.

sweated heavily for a couple of nights, with achey legs, very mild headache and if I take a deep breath I can feel something tickle at the back of my throat but it doesn't quite make me cough

no real ongoing cough either

Don't think it's covid unless others have very mild cases too but still putting me off going to stay at my parents..

Super mild symptoms for me however there are confirmed cases of people with zero-extremely mild symptoms which means I'm steering well clear of anyone obviously vulnerable

Not sure I did, did I?

Ooh, ooops; no you didn't - certificate of participation for you anyhow

This.

I am closer to what you describe than the full-on coughing, etc. But I am in isolation (with Mrs c00ps and mini/micro/nano c00pses downstairs - fortunately we are on three floors, so can function like this fairly well). I am not convinced this is it either. But without testing, what can you do?

Paperwork - pfffft!

Have woken up super snotty so this must just be a cold. Felt a bit shivery yesterday but no fever.

I had no idea I was a hypochondriac.

So much this.

Third day in, 38 °C, snotty, tired, coughing. Thank fuck I got tested otherwise everyone would have laughed at my man cold ;)

except all men!

@Stonehedge fingers crossed for you mate -

Still chortling at people's ignorance and selfishness around here. Mrs Pasty friends (one of who lives with elderly in-laws, one of which has cancer) messaging that there's no-way lock down is keeping their kids away from Mini-Pasty. "Erm, it will actually"

Hope you're doing OK.

Can I ask, on day 3, do you think it is getting worse/plateauing/getting better?

Blatant paranoia but no other symptoms other than a dull ache in my left kidney region. Was in contact with a potential case last week, thoughts?

That's like stubbing your toe and thinking you have corona.

fingers crossed for you mate

If this sniffle takes my life, avenge me.

In all seriousness, I've read a lot about how fever and cough isn't a symptom for a fair proportion of infected people. Crazy how hard this virus is to diagnose and isolate. I've also heard several doctors saying "if you're snotty, it's not coronavirus". I'm not so sure this is true.

This virus is very adept at what it does.

Umm, I think it's still getting a bit worse. But as I say, at any other time in my life I'd just say I was having a bad cold. The irritating bit is the cases who have suddenly gotten really bad and needed urgent ICU/ventilator treatment haven't shown their colours until day 7-10.

Symptoms to watch for:
Fever
Cough
Shortness of breath

not:
snotty
headache
paranoia
itchy cock
inflammed sense of self-importance
power button on the tv remote never works first time
window licking
hearing 'why does it always rain on me' at least three times per day

if you're snotty, it's not coronavirus

...Change my mind.jpg

I'm snotty and I have coronavirus.

not:
itchy cock

Oh thank god

Symptoms to watch for:

Fever
Cough
Shortness of breath

Tell that to Tom Hanks

You can't really say not snotty and headache

Also this

I've also heard several doctors saying "if you're snotty, it's not coronavirus". I'm not so sure this is true.

Seeing as @russmeyer has been tested positive and is snotty, obviously not.

Haha I’m sure I saw somewhere kidney pain was a symptom.
