I tested positive last Sunday, felt amonsgt the illest I've felt in my life in the early part of last week and then was negative again by Saturday/Sunday.
My chest is largely better now (still coughing a bit but only really in bed now) but I am cripplingly tired - to the point that I feel like I'm going to fall asleep mid-meetings etc. I went for a walk this morning for 15mins and it totally wiped me out.
What's the conventional wisdom to getting back in form again:
- total rest until I'm no longer tired?
- little and often with walks?

This. I had a friend of mine I work with try to come back too quickly and he's still not 100% a few months later. He told me to stay off work until I was completely better, which seems to have worked.
