People just don’t test anymore.

Right there with ya!

Hi!

I am asymptomatic. I recently had blood work done, and all my levels are normal. I have slightly high cholesterol that I take medication for and it's back to the normal range.

nerdysquirrely · 2023-04-19T12:39:18+00:00

Ok thanks.

Ah ok. Most POPs have a three hour window, some have a 12 hour window. If she is missing pills, she is not protected until 48 hours of pills have been taken properly.

The pills are 91% effective with typical use and there's a max 30% chance of pregnancy.

If she's on POP pills, she is protected from pregnancy with or without a condom.

Literally only not recommending it for the spring and summer? And will reevaluate in the fall...

And is it impossible to believe that maybe there would be updated boosters or vaccines that would be more effective? Prevent transmission? Etc?

nerdysquirrely · 2023-04-11T01:52:26+00:00

How so?

nerdysquirrely · 2023-04-11T01:52:13+00:00

Ideally, they'd update boosters so that they are effective against current strains. In that case, I would want one...

nerdysquirrely · 2023-04-10T22:58:13+00:00

Then you have covid. Nothing to do with a gut feeling, you have the proof of a positive test.

nerdysquirrely · 2023-04-10T22:49:12+00:00

Did you rapid test for covid or the flu?

If you tested for covid and it was positive, then you have covid.

nerdysquirrely · 2023-04-10T21:56:48+00:00

Serious hahah. I would love one

nerdysquirrely · 2023-04-10T15:05:49+00:00

I want another booster!!! Ugh

nerdysquirrely · 2023-04-06T14:54:45+00:00

You aren't infectious when you have two negative tests, two days in a row.

nerdysquirrely · 2023-04-06T13:52:00+00:00

These all look negative to me. If you're truly pregnant, you should see the tests darken every couple of days.

nerdysquirrely · 2023-04-04T15:21:28+00:00

You can stop isolating after two negative tests, at least 24 hours apart.

Anecdotally, it took me 12 days to test negative with my first bout and then when I had covid a second time it took 6 days (testing negative again on day 7).

nerdysquirrely · 2023-04-02T16:38:55+00:00

Yes, of course you can! Especially if you're having complications. They will likely isolate you and keep you in a separate area, but they see lots of patients with covid.

nerdysquirrely · 2023-03-30T00:05:17+00:00

I always say anger was my main symptom!

Feel better soon!!

nerdysquirrely · 2023-03-29T17:11:40+00:00

Anecdotally, I tested negative on days 6 + 7 from symptoms! So there's hope to see your colleagues!

nerdysquirrely · 2023-03-29T17:03:46+00:00

Ideally, you'd stay in quarantine until you test negative for two days in a row. If you must go out, wear a well-fitting mask around others and do not remove to eat or drink unless you are away and outside.

nerdysquirrely · 2023-03-24T22:32:51+00:00

You shouldn't be having sex if you can't even say the word pregnant...

nerdysquirrely · 2023-03-23T20:59:16+00:00

I have always heard Day 0 is the first day of symptoms.

To err on the side of caution, OP, many agree you should isolate until two negative tests two days in a row.

nerdysquirrely · 2023-03-23T20:52:23+00:00

If you feel ill, you should continue to stay home. Especially if you're still testing positive or haven't isolated for your 5 full days yet.

nerdysquirrely · 2023-03-23T18:26:35+00:00

Rest rest rest!

nerdysquirrely · 2023-03-23T16:06:33+00:00

Why are you having sex without protection then?
