I’m in my 30’s, healthy with 2 kids. Had a terrible cough and dizziness back in March. All 4 of us. Kids were down for about a week. I was 2 weeks and my wife’s cough lingered nearly 3 weeks. Fairly convinced we had it. Cost me about $250. I’ll update in 3-5 days when the results come back! Really hoping we had it!

Congrats, I guess, on giving someone your money for zero reason?

So did I except I had 101 fever along with it. My wife caught whatever I had but got over it in about a week. Mine took three weeks to finally go away. I had a test but it came back negative and then was told it was probably bronchitis.

If he had it, then his wife will let him go on the beach vacation he's been posting about.

So if you're over all of that, why spend $250 to find out at this point in time? It's apparently has run its course already.

We're going to do it too. It's blood right?

I don't have to have that 5 inch swap stuck into my brain do I?

We had it done so my wife would feel better about going on a Memorial Day trip. Got it done at Quest Diagnostics in Lawrenceville.

So it’s well worth it for me so she can loosen the strings a bit.

No mine was a finger prick. We had the virus already and got over it within 6-7 days. My 1 year old kicked it in 2.

Quest is where I got mine done, negative as well over here. Only reason I did it was because I had leftover HSA money that I wasn't using.

Note: Results showed up the next morning like 26 hours later.

Louisiana ran 7000 test yesterday at a 3% Positive rate. That's amazing to me.

Just called our local hospital lab; they will draw the blood and send it off to Quest if I get a doctor’s order.

You can also pay $119 and order the test off quest's website as an individual if you have the funds and want to avoid the doctor --> insurance runaround.

Moar testing!

Now you'll need another test the day after..oh wait, now! You need another test NOW!

Has it been 5 minutes? Another test!

And guess what...you'll need another test after this next test.

And then we can really start testing! You'll start with a test, end with a test, a test in between the start and the end, ....
