My wife is a nurse and a patient who later tested positive coughed in her face last week. Luckily my wife's test came back negative this morning.

Clinic the gf works at is starting to see more and more positives, so figure it'll happen at somepoint. But allergies do a number on me every April/May, so hell, I probably would be never the wiser if I do catch it

Actually, I should probably just break up with her

I had a sore throat one day about a week ago and my first thought was "uh oh".

But I had no other symptoms other than feeling tired, but all that only lasted for a day, so I don't know what that was.

No purpose in freaking out about it. I'm guessing a not-small number of people on this board have had it without knowing.

I think there is a 50-50 chance my wife is currently getting over it. She was told to quarantine for another week and they wanted to test her she was told they likely wouldn't because she didn't have shortness of breath. Had fever, cough and lost sense of taste/smell (which hasn't returned). She's fine now other than an improving cough. Around the same time I had cough and malaise, so probably some chance I had it as well, though I'm somewhat doubtful.

I'm coughing and I feel like I can't breath the last 2 days, but pretty confident it's just pollen.

I have averaged a severe allergy attack every two days for the last three weeks.

I've never had it be this severe. I'm on three different antihistamines and just started Prednisone.

2020 step into the ring with the world ready to fight.

It's round 3 of a 12 round fight, and 2020 has won every round so far.

She had some body aches and a sore throat but that was literally for about 1-2 days and then she is fine. We’ve been home for the past 10 days so just a few more and we are done. Both of us feel and have felt fine and none of our kids seem to be bothered.

My 2 month old woke up 8 day’s ago with a fever and she was inconsolable. We know that kids don’t generally get the virus but we immediately feared the worst and called the pediatrician. They saw her around lunch time and it turned out to be an ear infection. I’ve never been so happy to hear my child had an ear infection in my life.

I have been experiencing the same. Been out of town for 3 months and haven’t had my monthly allergy shot. Worse now that my damn throat clearing constantly has irritated it. May need to get some prednisone.

I was tested on Monday at Mandeville drive though.

My little boy has asthma and was coughing since last Friday. No real fever and other than coughing he was almost himself. We called his pediatrician and they said breathing treatments. He still has a cough but is acting normal.

I started feeling bad with I thought was a diverticular flare AND stomach ulcer with cold chills and very mild fever. I am constantly fatigued and was also having what felt like minor aches in lungs. My head also hurts at times. This started for me Sunday night. I also have nausea that comes and goes (figured ulcer/ulcer medication related) today it’s slight shortness of breath....no fever.

I went into my doctor this past Monday and he gave me a flu test (negative) and said he wasn’t worried about my boy or me with this virus said we would be fine if we had it even with both of our underlying conditions and said for peace of mind if you want he could get me tested. Then he told me by the time I get results I would be through the worst of it already.

Oh well, if breathing gets labored bad I will go to hospital, but I will ride it out as long as possible.

This is the first time I want a medical test to be positive lol

Oh yeah I just read that many new positive cases are only showing signs of abdominal discomfort so, who knows?

That's the thing that weirds me out.

Been getting whipped by allergies which is pretty normal for me at this time of year.

However, for the past week or so, my stomach has felt "off". Not terrible, nothing that keeps me in the bathroom -- just a kind of uncomfortable feeling in my stomach. No fever, no persistent cough, no breathing issues at this point. Just the allergies and this stomach weirdness.
