Did you lose your sense of taste and for how long? 4 weeks here. Ughh


No, had a headache and a low grade fever for two days, both of which were eased by acetaminophen. The flu was worse.
Wife (no pics) had a severe case; every symptom except difficulty breathing. After, 3 weeks she still says her sense of taste and smell hasn't fully returned.

Had it and went to the ER thinking I was having heart issues because I had no fever and had consistent pain. Still have pressure near my heart/chest for over 5 weeks but now improving. I wasn’t super scared of Covid but the process was something.

My wife tested positive and I had my doubts she truly had it. I slept next to her for the entire time and we even banged and I never got sick at all. Now reading all y’all’s stories I know it was a false positive she never lost any senses and was back working out after two weeks.

Never lost taste or smell. Have been sick for 4 weeks with a week stay in the hospital. Lost 25 lbs. Can't get rid of this damn pneumonia. Getting better every day, but slow progress. Was never seriously afraid of dying or anything.
glad you are getting well. Mind me asking the loss of weight as a percentage of total weight?

We are the few and the proud! But no I didn’t. My wife did for a week or two.

Odd comment for a guy who asking for everyone to pray for him yesterday.


So a Christian can’t make jokes about sex? Let’s have a paradigm shift.
