I’ve had to do a test today, hoping it’s negative but I’ve got all the symptoms (everyone in my household has). I started with a really bad headache that tablets wouldn’t shift, then I got extremely itchy eyes (not sure if there’s any correlation?) and now I’m extremely exhausted, I have a cough that is constant and I’m struggling to breathe with it. I haven’t left bed in days, I feel so ill😢

That sounds rotten. How are you feeling now?

That sounds like COVID. Sorry.

First time round diarrhoea- then everything except much in the way of fever and no loss of smell/taste.

This time round started with a sore throat, burning sinuses and cough. Lost smell/taste for a bit and now fatigued.

Hang on in there. Flowers

Fever and headache.. hope you feel better soon

Fatigue, loss of smell and taste. High temp

Also lost voice. Periods stopped for two months afterwards.

Fatigue, burning pain in lungs and cough. Oh and fever x

Achy thighs and legs, loss of smell, coughing and sneezing, tired, rash on stomach (thinking that must be related)

I started with a sore throat and what I thought was a head cold. No temperature or cough. My eyes were so itchy for days, they drove me mad. After day drive I felt much worse with a terrible migraine which lasted for 5 days, along with sickness. I do suffer from migraines but this was the longest I've ever had. No pain relief would touch it. Throughout I had no sense of taste or smell at all. My sinuses were terrible.

5 weeks later my taste and smell is still not back to normal and I have a constant humming in my ear.

I hope you're feeling much better soon. Those headaches are terrible. Cold / freeze gel is all that eased mine slightly.

Wow I second the humming in ears! I still have it now. Also haven’t had a consistent period either since 😩 my test was positive (OH works in retail so🙄)
