Some days good, some days bad, post 10 days.

[musicalfrog]

Anyone else really up and down even though 10 days have passed?

I'm finding some days my glands are right up and others they don't bother me at all. The cough is lingering, but that's OK apparently. Taste is back to normal and I never had a fever. Testing negative on lateral flow. But still feel so rough sometimes and haven't seen anyone to catch any new germs!

Perfectly normal for COVID. The trick is probably to take it easier than you think you should on the good days or you’ll end up paying for it with some rough days.

It will probably pass within the next few weeks, but if it lasts much longer you should see your GP.

Yes, I felt generally shit for about 6 weeks - worse after my isolation than I did during the first 10 days! I do feel a lot better now.

6 weeks has been about the same as the people I know/work with who’ve had it.

Hope you are feeling better soon, OP.

Thank you, good to hear this is considered normal. I feel like I got off lightly but maybe it was saving something else after all!

I’m on my 10th day with covid and my sore throat is back, and am feeling really tired and coldy :(

I keep doing LFT’s but they are still testing g positive …

wondering when i’ll test negative ,,?

I tested positive 3 weeks ago. I felt proper rough for at least 12 days (as ill as I've ever been as an adult - though no breathing difficulties thankfully) and continued to test positive until about day 15 (not sure if that is relevant or not). I wasn't well enough to go back to work after 10 days and ended up begin signed off for another week by GP.

Now I am feeling much better but still get absolutely exhausted. Some days my glands are up and I have a sore throat. And sometimes giddy with a headache, and oddly, backache. Taste coming back, smell a bit patchy. My sleep is also odd (REALLY vivid dreams!!!).

In my case covid is certainly the gift that keeps giving!!!! Though obviously it could have been much much worse.

Hope you feel better soon OP
