Assessment said that breathing difficulties often come in about 10-12 days after initial symptoms, and that we should monitor O2 levels 3 times a day.
This is what I was told too, although I was in better condition than you the doc said it can still take a dive. Other advice was not to lie on my back and to do constricted breathing exercises, deep breath in, hold, release etc.
Hope you’re both on the mend soon.

Day 9 of symptoms.
Woke up much more comfortable, temp was almost normal, 37.2 ish.
Lungs feel really tired, still coughing, very out of breath.
Can't really speak too long without feeling out of breath.
Wife called GP for a sick note, and we've both been referred for further assessment.

And that if it drops to 92 or less, to call 999.
