    I’ve had it once in January 2021. Was awful. My wife has had it twice. First she was just very fatigued. Second time she had a scratchy throat and that was it.

    Both my kids have had it as well when my wife had it for the second time. This was right after July 4th of this year. Kids ran fevers for around 36 hours and was fine. No other symptoms.

    I did not get it while everyone had it in my household, as far as I know. I have had previous infection and vaxxed.

    Wife's heart rate and BP were high last night, had to explain (again) that BP meds do not work like advil it takes days for the pills to work. She is fine during the day but nights suck for her. I am still clean.

    She is rebounding well, much better than even yesterday. I just feel a little off with a slight cough and a low grade headache, not enough to take advil.

    I'm sure she is so thrilled :confused: .... this to will pass ... nothing but a cold ... look at it this way, you now have anti-bodies... no damn jabs needed and your better off that way ... those jabs can harm or kill ya, this 'cold' not so much unless you have serious co-morbidities ..

    remember my words of caution- do not trust a first week 1-2 day recovery. You over do it and it will come back on you with a vengeance.

    Hope it passes soon.

    Watched pulp fiction for about the 100th time had a few beers, feeling pretty damn good. Will see how it progresses but I feel better than I did this morning. Coughed till I puked earlier but that has passed, love the dry heaves thought I crapped myself for a second. Going to have some screw ball on the rocks and a couple omega 8 dummies and sleep hard about 9.

    So my covid symptoms lasted 8 hours, slept for 3 of those, little runny nose but back to 100% going to take noodles advice and just chill till for a couple days. I feel fortunate the wife and daughter felt like hell for 5 days, they are a little pissed that the old man shuns disease, easily. I think covid got in me and wasn't feeling so good it's self. Honey badgered it got bitten by the cobra, I was a sleepy F for 3 hours and then got back it.

    are you on hydroxychloroquine and/or steroids for your arthritis? My mom is and has had C19 twice now, once early on (I think May 19?) and the other last November. Both times super mild. Non-jabbed.
