re: Update got my Coronavirus test. Positive for pneumonia.

Labcorp uses UTM's and nasalpharangyls... so basically a swab up your nose

Elderberry syrup helps a lot with the flu. Does anybody know if it would also help with the WuFlu?

I was having the beginning of flu like symptoms earlier this year. Started taking elderberry and felt better in a day or two. Maybe it will help with the Chinese flu.

OP, I’m curious as to your test results. You described my symptoms perfectly from about a month and a half ago. Exactly the same. I had not traveled, but several folks in my office had recently been to various locations overseas.
I tested negative for the flu but was told by the doc I had the flu anyway. Took a dose of Xofluza and was mostly symptom free 3-4 days later, except for shortness of breath and an aggravating, unproductive dry cough that lasted nearly 3 weeks. My wife and 3 kids had similar symptoms all of varying degrees, mine being the worst.
I was convinced this virus had already made its rounds through our home. If your test comes back positive, I will be even more settled on that being the case.
Either way, prayers to you and yours for quick healing regardless of whatever it is you’re battling.

That's not from the virus.







Seriously though, hope all is well and it just turns out to be a little cold or something not to serious along those lines.

Well if I get the Chinese AIDs, I guess I’ll just die then.

Getting my Coronavirus test tomorrow!

I've been traveling quite a bit but started feeling bad on Wednesday afternoon with shortness of breath, chest tightness, head burning up while rest of the body is freezing but no fever, little nasal drip, dry throat, extreme physical exhaustion, head is clear not groggy/foggy, and cough that is persistent but not deep.



I had these exact same weird arse symptoms mid December. The groggy/fogginess/and shortness of breath was the most unusual part. Had never experienced that before.

The symptoms do not include groggy/fogginess with my head in fact I feel very clear headed. However, my face, ears, and forehead feel like they are burning up but no fever at all. My arms, legs, and body below my neck feel super cold. Head ache or pressure on the temples is also uncomfortable.

I asked earlier and he ignored me
