On Sunday 8th/Monday 9th I had an upset stomach and extreme tiredness (hard to get off the couch)
Wednesday 11th I started getting a dry cough (highly unusual for me to have any sort of cough since I stopped smoking 8 years ago), got worse on Thursday, felt wheezy on Friday/Saturday. Had a headache on and off over this period too.
Then my cough got better and pretty much went away Sunday / Monday.
Today my throat is soooo sore, if I hadn't had my tonsils out I'd think it was tonsillitis.
Anyway I've been following self isolation rules, I assumed until today that it was probably a different bug (or bugs) and not covid-19 but the fact I've now got a really sore throat is weird.
I'm not worried for myself but my dh is in the vulnerable category. I'm staying away from him as much as possible which is harder than I thought it would be as I want to sleep in my own bed and give my dh a cuddle.

Anyone else in a similar position?

Should add, no fever that I've noticed. I have felt particularly cold though but I have anaemia so that's not very unusual.
I don't think I've had a fever since I was a child, even when I had pneumonia, a kidney infection and a sinus infection 🤷🏼‍♀️
