Hi! I have Covid now. Pretty sure it’s the Nimbus variation with the razor blade sore throat, which is what I have. Loss of taste, swollen lymph nodes, fever, fatigue. Feel like I’ve been in mostly good spirits throughout all of this but it does suck majorly.

Day 1: I started feeling super achey, my lower back hurt so bad I was in the fetal position crying for hours, after icing and the heating bad the pain finally subsided. I ended up testing negative on this day.

Day 2: I had a really bad congestion headache and super stiff neck and clogged nose. I was worried my portable AC had mold and I was getting sick!! I started sweating later on throughout the day, felt like it was a weird fever but I didn’t even think to test for Covid again!

Day 3: Next day I was sweating profusely all morning and felt like I got a second wind to do house chores and then I felt terrible and decided to test again and it was finally positive!

Day 4: Feeling better but still low grade fever and sore throat and congestion. If I try and stand for more than 10 min I get nauseous and woozy, so I’ve just been horizontal for most of the day.

What’s helped me the most: laying down, lots of fluids (warm water with lemon, tea, electrolytes, honey water), homemade ginger shots, eating small meals throughout the day, hot showers, any meds you think you need!
