Having a wobble

[Idontbelieveit14]

Tested positive on Wednesday - so day 2 now. I’ve just burst out crying, I have never liked being stuck in the house, and the thought of still being in this situation next week if I don’t get negative LFT on day 5/6/7 etc has just made me have a massive panic. I know there’s other people in my situation and I’m lucky as I have a husband and kids but I feel really lonely for some reason 🤷🏼‍♀️

I’m in a similar position. It’s rubbish. We’ve messaged all the friends we did online stuff with during lockdown and planned in zoom games, dinner chats etc. In that an option?
DH also felt well enough to do all the jobs we’ve been putting off for ages which made him feel massively like he was achieving stuff

At the moment there’s only me and the 4yo that are positive so the others have been at school/work. So that’s been hard, I’ve been messaging friends but it’s not the same as being out and about and at work etc.

I was in isolation over Christmas, it’s shit. Then as soon as I was allowed out, my 3 year old tested positive so I still couldn’t go anywhere.
It passes. Use it to rest and do things at home that you wouldn’t normally have time to do. And fingers crossed for a negative day 5 and 6 test!

I’m feeling pretty crappy and look vile so not wanting any zoom chats 😂 x

I’m on day three and feeling better than I did on days one and two. Podcasts are massively helping and just feeling whatever feelings there are rather than ignoring them!

I tested positive on Wednesday but had Symptoms on Tuesday so would that make me day 3 or 2? Sorry to jump on

I think it depends if they are the 3 main symptoms? I think if so then you’d be day 3. My throat felt strange on Tuesday afternoon but work have told me that doesn’t count as not a temp/cough/change is taste or smell

Tuesday is day zero, Wednesday day 1 so you are now on day 3

OP - hope you feel better soon and get your negative tests. As regards the crying, I felt very over-emotional with Omicron.

I had a cry too OP. Hope you are OK

The fatigue is the worst for me. I sleep 10 hours at night and then have several naps through the day and sit or lie down most of the time. Basic tasks completely wipe me out. I'm on day 5.

@Idontbelieveit14 I've had a a cry it didn't help that I came on my
Period the day I tested positive meh

Tuesday I had achy
Legs and a headache
Wednesday I tested positive
Thursday omg I felt like my head was going to explode and my temp was 39
Today just have a itchy soar throat

How u feeling ?

I’ve felt the same every day since Wednesday, headache, sore throat, blocked nose, cough x

@Idontbelieveit14 oh it's awful get well soon x

I had a cough on Wednesday which I assumed was from end of cold from last week. Last negative lateral was Monday ( I had done a few week before when cold started all negative)
Thursday cough not as bad but headache. Took lateral and really strong line appeared in minutes

So I'm counting Wednesday as day 0 due to cough so I'm on day 2 now.

Not felt too bad today just grotty and tired like j did when I had a cold. I did get chills in afternoon . I went to bed with all clothes on under duvet with a fleece gilet on with a hot water bottle inside that. I slept for an hour and woke up cold still and teeth chattering. That freaked me out a bit. I put jumper, dressing gown and coat over me and eventually warmed up a bit.

I've come to bed now still dressed with another hot water bottle inside fleece gilet on.

I thought you were meant to get a fever not feeling freezing with covid?

Oh no, I hope you’re ok @OneMoreWish - I’ve not had a fever, I remember a side effect of my jab was that I couldn’t get warm so maybe it’s fairly normal?

I’m having a bit of a panic just had an awful sharp shooting pain around my eyebrow, never felt anything like it before. It’s freaked me out
