Test results came back and he tested positive for the virus. So far all he feels is extreme fatigue, nausea, and he has the shits. I got an opportunity to call him on the phone and the he was more worried about me not taking him fishing this weekend than the actual virus.

He’s in his mid 70’s. Lives in Belle Chasse. A bunch of his friends who are around the same age have it too who all live in the area.

I have been nauseated for over a week (with underlying heart conditions) and my littlest (with asthma) has been coughing for 10 days (he is acting fine otherwise). I was negative for the flu....so they swabbed me for covid19 and oscher doesn’t even know how to update there system to put in my correct email for results.....I can’t believe this crap.

The point is nausea is a HUGE symptom for this virus. I hope I have it at this point. Man, I am sorry about you grandpa and I pray for a speedy recovery. I actually feel slightly better, but just want my dang test results back. I hope they are positive at this point. I have never wanted a positive medical test back so bad lol

Hopefully he's not about to meet Big Lee at the Pearly Gates.

I'm hearing nausea too. Was discussing that yesterday at work, we're thinking it's maybe tied into hypoxia.
