Everybody is different my friend felt better each day past about day four. I am still unwell on day forty four.

Felt awful for days 1, 2 and 3 - fever and sore throat and started improving from day 4. By day 6 I decided I didn't need to take paracetamol or ibuprofen any longer. My dw was similar and my colleague who I caught it from was too.
It was bloody awful. I really hope you feel better soon.

I'm currently on day 3. Felt like shit yesterday and worse today - whole body aches, sore head and stuffy. Three DC are ok and DP is 2 days infront of me and seems to be alot better. I had it last June and its not anywhere near as bad but I was 7 months preg at the time.

Thanks all - so weird how it impacts everyone so differently. Hoping I'm in the 'feeling better on day 4' camp. Sympathies to those suffering for extensive periods. Nasty nasty virus.

Six weeks now, negative for four, having bloods, ecg, chest X-ray, etc. Looking at Long Covid if it goes past 12weeks.
