COVID and nausea

[wonky123]

Has anyone who has had this new COVID strain had prolonged nausea? I have been ill since Tuesday. Achy, fever, headache and relentless nausea. Wondering how long the nausea last! I think it is COVID looking at the symptoms?

Hi @wonky123 I tested this evening and found that my cold is in fact Covid. I’m so pissed off; I caught it from a friend who has just been on holiday in Spain & thought she just has a cold
Think I’m on day 3.
Same symptoms as you, including mild nausea which started today.
No loss of sense of smell, which is different from previous infections. Tested twice as I was so surprised, both were v strong positives.

Horrible isn't it. Hope you feel better soon xx

Thanks. Have you tested? Will you?
Hope yours goes, too.

Thank you. Mine has finally gone. I didn't test but stayed in and kept away from everyone x

I had similar last year and doctor prescribed anti-nausea tablets, I took one and it went away! Definitely worth calling the surgery
best wishes for a speedy recovery

Im feeling the same, mine started last wednesday night with full on body aches like i had been hit by a bus, couldnt even turn over in bed without pain for a couple of day. Tahat part seems to have subsided now ive got the nausea part and waking up anxious between 2 and 4 in the morning! How long did youra last altogether? Hope your still feeling better!

Hi how are you feeling now? X

Hi how are you feeling now? X

Pretty sure I have had it for the past week and a bit. I also had nausea on and off. I have stayed at home all week. Felt too rough to go out anyway, but I'm a bit sad it happened over half term. Hopefully won't catch it again now though, so that's something.

Bless you are you feeling better? Im day 11 of this horrible thing and id say i feel 20% better but i have pre exsisting anxiety which was controlled with sertraline prior to this so not sure if its wiped out my tablets and im going through some side effects from that aswell! C

That sounds rough @KWC! I think I'm finally better today. Just in time to go back to work on Monday 😒

I have felt ok in terms of mood. Just very wiped out. I was tearful on Wednesday but that is very normal for me when I have a virus. I turn into a very weepy person which I am generally not. I cried at some random murder mystery on Wednesday and also cried because I couldn't go out

Aww bless you im pleased your feeling better but shame about the work part! Im porbably gonna have to take some more days off i think to get better properly! X

Thank you for asking, KWC.
Aches & light fever are being kept under control with paracetamol. Coughing is getting worse, a bit phlegmatic; I think the fatigue is the worst bit, both in general & if I dare actually use a muscle. I think this is day 9 or 10. Definitely more overnight anxiety than usual, had some completely irrational but very worrying money related dreams last night, took me a long time to unpick them & separate from reality when they woke me. (Thankfully, the likelihood of a previous buyer coming after us for cost of repair on a house we sold 15 years ago is pretty unlikely!)
DH (a couple of days behind me) has general fatigue & coughs but thankfully no fever or pain now.

I hope you’re not suffering x

Im still not great im now dealing with the cough which is producing (green) so possibly a secondary infection but im actually dealing ok with it but i still feel slightly anxious and exhaused! How are you feeling today? X
