    Had covid?

    If you caught it AFTER being vaccinated, how long was it before you got back to normal? It's already cost me a fishing trip!

    Had the original two shots and the first booster that came out. Caught the vid this year and had a 102.1 on and off for 5 days and bronchitis type coughing. Felt way better after the 5 days but tested positive for 19 days.

    1st time sick for a couple days days. 2nd time sick for about a day. The second time around it would not cost me any fishing time. The first time it would have cost me a day. Now if I wasn't vaccinated.....

    Vax'd and boosted, and then BAM! Went to bed feeling tired/irritable, woke up with a nasty hazy feeling, full blow cold effects. About 7-8 days. 2 bads day of feeling like total crap, + another day of a very mild fever, and 4-5 days of cold symptoms. Lingering minor evening cough for a few weeks.

    I was still pregnant (pink) after 7 days of onset but felt 100%.

    It’s just the flu. Some have a harder time to recover that some people where it’s just no big deal. But Covid is just a flu. No more, no less

    3 times after 3 vaccines, the first was after the first two and I had an IV infusion that was great. Two days later I felt human. The next two were treated with Paxlovid and since I caught it so quick colds were worse. The cold I am just now getting over was MUCH worse than all three times I had Covid. The recent cold took a steroid shot, Zithromycin, and a steroid pack to shake the worse symptoms, still have a lingering cough two weeks later.

    I've had it once, mild flu like symptoms lasted about 3 days. Zero after affects, zero shots. My wife has never had it and she slept in same bed while I had it. She also hasn't gotten the shot.

    Vaxed and boosted in the fall. My wife did not get boosted this fall. She caught it for the first time in Dec and shared the love with me. She had it bad. Like in bed for 5 days. I only had slight cold symptoms for 3 days. We are both in our mid 50’s.

    vaccinated and I've had it 4 times. None of which were serious. Just like typical colds except the first time I got it i lost my taste and smell for several months.

    I got it after being vaxed. Really felt crappy for two days. Then much better. Then a cough for 3 weeks. Just enough to annoy you. Nose ran also. Finally all went away.

    Vaxxed and boosted. Got it once, pretty bad for a couple of days. Hard to breathe. Night time Nyquill was like magic.
