    Most healthy people don't need medical attention, especially these latest strains. Just like the Flu.

    I felt like crap for a couple days and got steadily better each day until about two weeks after. Then I had a lingering cough for 9 weeks. Would not be able to sleep without some cough medicine for several weeks. It too finally played out and now I have a problem with my eyes watering. My respiratory doctor says it has screwed with my asthma. I have asthma but not too severely. But after day three I could have fished if I was determined to do so. Take good care of yourself for a few weeks and you will be fine! Prayers for you Al to recover quickly!

    Too bad it had that crappy aftertaste, almost like eating an aluminum can. Lol

    Didn’t happen to me. Had it twice. Second time not as bad as the first. They were at least a year apart.

    Ha. Yep. Like sucking on a penny.

    My covid case did not return after taking the Paxlovid. And no, it was not difficult for me to get. I went to the clinic and requested it. Dr. said "sure."

    My doctor prescribed the Plaxavoid as well, although I didn't take it. It's also approved under the emergency use authorization, like the vaccine, and I had to sign a waiver after reading 5 pages about it. For men, the biggest side effect is what it does to sperm and it stated to not impregnant someone for 6 months afterwards.

    Upon reading more about it, it is RNA technology. Apparently there are 4 types of RNA with the vaccines being mRNA. I couldn't find anywhere online the type of RNA that plaxavoid was made from.

    It's been a month since I had covid, most symptoms lasted 7 days but I still have the headache. Tha kfully it gets better every day . Hope you feel better soon OP

    I got it for Christmas. I'm supposedly over it but I still cough a lot.
    It affected my sense of taste, like food had about 10% of the usual taste.
    Never had a fever but had to quit a tournament about two weeks ago because I coughed so much I got a headache, and I couldn't catch diddly.

    I just got it for the first time. Started feeling weird sunday and it went full blown on monday. Fever, chills, the craziest headaches, especially the sinus area, fatigue and coughs. I can deal with all of it but these headaches are another thing. Sick and tired of laying down. Havent been doing anything crazy medicine wise. Tylenol, dayquil for the cough and rest. Lots of fluids including tea. I'm on my third day. Hope to be over it by friday.

    Got it February 2021, was on a contract shoot of a Livestock show with two days to go. Got to my RV that night felt like death, took a dose of Ivermectin & some quinine, went to bed. Got up next morning and felt much better, went back to work and finished the shoot. Couldn't smell a thing for about 2 weeks, changed my taste buds even to today.

    I may have got it right before and during Christmas. Had flu symptoms with the worst symptom being bodyaches. Lost sense of smell but them again don't we all when our sinuses are messed up?

    Yep, same here. Had it in 2022, between X mas and new years- was wrecking the LM on JB. Just couldn't shut it down, felt like crap. New Years 2023 was wrecking the crappie, Covid again. Two nights this last time I had bad nights, coughing and sore throat. Sides hurt from coughing. Both nights I said I am going to urgent care in the morning. Woke up in the morning alive, went fishing.

    I’ve had it twice, both times I felt slightly bad for about 24-36 hours. Was bow hunting first time and still managed to hunt and drink bourbon every night with the guys on the trip and second time was on a fishing trip and all was good within a day. Hope your symptoms are as mild as most I’ve known.
