1st Positive Test

So I tested positive today for the 1st time. Just wondering what kind of ride people had with the current variant. Especially interested in over 50s with pre existing conditions. I have mild asthma and I am heavier than I should be.
So far I have had to up my inhaler use a little and have had sore throat, cough, runny nose etc. Also fatigue.
Thank you

@Emmelina I’m not glad that you have those symptoms but I’m weirdly glad someone else has mentioned the jabbing feeling. I’ve had so much of that it’s made me cry a couple of times, full on stabbing shooting pains in different parts of the body.

Strange isn’t it? It hasn’t been so bad today, but the coughing has intensified. Hopefully as this is day 4 (I think?) this is the worst it will get.

Feeling much better a week on and will be back to work on Tuesday... in the heat wave 😮
