Covid tips

[anonxc]

I've tested positive for Covid, last time I had this was 2021 and I was one dose vaccinated, I was very lucky I only suffered with a headache and a bit mucky generally but overall I was ok. This time I have a fever from hell, feeling like I'm going to vomit every ten minutes and very shaky and weak. I have not been vaccinated since the first dose that I had back in 2021 due to having side effects from it, I was too scared to get the second dose. I'm worried I'm going to have it severe as I've lost my hearing in one ear and I'm so so unwell and I've only tested positive today :/ I guess I'm just looking for reassurance and that Covid affects other unvaccinated people like this and they're ok? :(

You'll be fine, I know people who've taken every jab going and they still suffered with it badly. Keep hydrated and try and eat a little, not easy when you feel sick.

Thank you, I feel so sick it's so odd I've never felt sick with a virus before. Is it normal for chest and upper back to feel sore aswell like I've done a workout?

I have Covid now. I’ve had all the vaccines. I’m ill and off work. It’s the second time I’ve had it, but this is worse. Started with awful cold, cough and headache, and with some stomach ache. Cold symptoms easing, but headache and sinuses are bad. I’ve lost hearing in one ear. No sense of smell or taste.
