Freedom but still feel rubbish

[Fashionesta]

Today's my last day of isolation. My symptoms since I tested positive have been really bad head cold, sore throat on and off, lethargy, dizziness and lack of smell and taste. This morning woke up with sore throat again and feeling generally fluey and achey. Not had a cough or temperature throughout.

For some reason in my head I thought tomorrow I would go out and enjoy running running errands etc but I just feel rubbish and can't imagine it. LFT this morning negative which would indicate I am probably not infectious anymore.

I am dubbel vaxxed and appreciate my symptoms are far off what others have experienced but I'm just feeling so down feeling this shit still.

Anyone else in a similar boat?

Can you go for a short walk and build up? The fresh air will do you the world of good.

I’ve felt like this. I was free on Saturday & I’m still feeling grim. I’m currently working in bed as it’s the only place I feel well enough to be!

Still, trying to remain positive. I’m back doing the short school run for some fresh air, taking it verrry steady. I managed to get out for Sunday lunch with the family. I felt pretty shit but it was nice to have some company. Slowly does it but important to build up strength & not just sit still! It will eventually pass but it can seemingly take a few weeks!

Thanks. Will do school run tomorrow and walk the dog and see how I feel. I think walking slowly and fresh air will help. I just had visions of me skipping off to the local shopping center 🤣

Also wfh and working from bed with breaks in-between. Work thankfully being supportive.

Feel exactly the same and expected back at work for a full day. I don't see how I can.

Hope you feeling better soon op

Hi OP. Yes, was my freedom day yesterday and the coughing accelerated again. So fed up!

Apparently I need to get a doctors note but not sure at which point during my 10 day enforced isolation my 7-day self-certification began

Yes I’m the same - I’ve just posted a thread on it. I’ll have a brighter few hours then feel god awful as I do now. I’ve worked from home during being positive but I’m not sure how I’m going to get well without a few days off, yes there has been the weekend but with two small kids, restful it ain’t!
