I know no one will really be able to advise me here medically but wondering if anyone else has had the same.
Me and my family self isolated for 14 days mid March because I had a new dry cough, sore throat, bad headaches, aching all over, exhausted, burning pain in my lungs, coughing up green/brown phlegm on a morning only once, I ended up being given antibiotics to clear the mucus up, but my doctor spoke to me over the phone and said it was suspected coronavirus, I was very worried about the awful burning sensation In my lungs and chest pains. I definitely felt like it was coronavirus. I felt better probably around day 12.
Other family had milder symptoms a few days after me.
It has been over three weeks where I have felt back to normal, maybe just a mild cough every now and then.
Yesterday I have started again with a dry painful cough, I am just worried now, what if I didnt have it the first time and now I do?
Has anyone else had what they thought was it but then actually got it later?
I struggled with work believing me the first time and as I have to still go to work as a key worker I dont want to self isolate again, but obviously without being tested the first time there is no real way of knowing is there?
There doesn't seem to be anything online to advise in this instance where ive already self isolated.
