“About a month ago my entire home (husband and two teen daughters) got an odd bug. Low grade fever, headaches, sore throat, body aches, ears ringing and a dry cough.
“It cleared up quickly. Seasonal I thought?but it felt unusual/different… Two weeks later, March 15th, I woke up with all those same symptoms but super intense body aches, and 102.4 fever. I figured maybe I got the flu or..Corona?”
She continued: “I called a doctor/friend to ask if I could get the Covid-19 test on 3/16. He said NO, I didn’t meet the criteria.
“A friend told me that CityMD/Urgent Care in my neighbourhood had test kits, which appealed to me as I wanted to stay away from the hospital.
“I went on 3/17.First I was tested for the flu-which was negative.Then they tested me for Covid-19. I was sent home and told to quarantine myself until I had results, which would take 3-7 days.
“Well..today is day 5 and I just found out. I’m hoping I’ve been through the worst of it already. It’s very “morphy”. One day I feel crappy and the next I’m normal. Today my lungs are heavy, but I’m tough.”
She concluded: “I can breathe, and I’m going to heal here, in my own home! My family is under quarantine for 14 days.They have no symptoms. I think we all had it possibly already? Who knows.
“Anyhow, stay home people! Protect yourselves and your loved ones. Build up your immune systems. Good luck and God bless us all!
