Chest pain, breathless, sore throat, exhausted

[Jhust]

I have a pain in my chest, which is worse when I breathe in or deeply. I’m breathless. It’s not pleurisy pain as I had it when I was a child. I had a disgusting throat infection on Friday and I’ve been dog tired since Thursday. All day yesterday, everything hurt and I just lay on sofa. I had a busting headache which is now gone too. Normally I’m out running, groceries, meeting friends etc. I’m also so tearful. My throat pain has gone since i squeezed two mammoth tonsil stones out from my tonsils.

My taste has been all off all week, food tasting off,or like I’ve burned my mouth.

The pain in my chest and breathlessness is all that’s left, apart from being exhausted and tearful.

What’s going on do you think?

100% not pregnant btw, maybe pmsing!!

Well if your taste and smell is off you need to get a covid test and isolate don't you.

Get a covid test

Is this a trick question?!

Isolate and get a test.

I would guess as you have posted this in the corona topic you have an inkling it could be that and will be having a test ?

Smell is ok, I’ve a nose like a sniffer dog 😆

What are you asking?

isolate yourself and arrange to be tested.

They're not Corona symptoms. Call 111

Tonsil stones?! You did what?

They very much are CV symptoms. Chest pain and breathless.

Get a test. I started our like that, thinking I was better after 10 days. I ended up ill for months.

Still not right. 6 months later.

How can anyone who has paid any attention at all to anything over the last few months not realise that most of these are Covid symptoms? Change in sense of taste. Chest pain and breathlessness. Headache and body aches. Fatigue. They are all on the longer checklists. I never had a cough at all, though I did have a slight temperature for about a day. I had a terrible headache, tiredness, lack of appetite and firstly change in taste, then loss of taste.

Well you need to get in touch with 111 (or 119 if you suspect covid).

Chest pain has always been a red flag symptom that requires prompt medical attention. Never mind covid you could be having a heart attack or pulmonary embolism you daft woman.

And I mean that in the kindest possible way, but really!?!

What's a tonsil stone?

So instead of seeking medical advice from a trained professional you came on Mumsnet ring 111!

What's a tonsil stone?

It’s like a blackhead but on your tonsils.
