I was out of commission for a few days in early Feb and had all the typical symptoms. I stayed home and hydrated.

It may or may not have been the Kung Flu, but the thought never crossed my mind. If it would have happened this past week I’d assume the worst and gone get tested.

I’m young and healthy so I’m not even worried. Although about once a month I go visit my grandparents but now I’m holding off until this blows over just to be on the safe side for their benefit.

None of you guys were sick from covid unless it happened after the middle of February. Pretty soon we will all be posting here about our aches and pains and feeling like we are drowning.

While testing I'd love to see if they can test for antibodies to see if people already had the damn thing and didn't know it

I'm starting to wonder. Last Monday night, I woke with body aches and a fever. Felt like a damn truck hit me. I stayed out of work. Did a Telehealth doctor visit on Wednesday and he said it's likely the flu (presumptive) as I had no cough or upper respiratory sx at all. Put me on tamiflu and today is the last day of meds and I felt fine after Wednesday.

It's being dismissed as good potential news because if true, we're way further into this than thought and it's likely not as bad as it's being made out to be.

I think the wife and I both had it, and in my personal non-medical opinion I feel like an assload of people I know had it already. Same symptoms, tested negative for flu. I think this shite has already been around the world twice.

Got sick the week of thanksgiving. Never get the flu. Had a fever and slept in a full track suit. When my fever broke I was drenched in sweat. Worst I have ever been sick. Lost 15 pounds.

Haven’t had the flu in at least 20 years

Looking back on it now I think I had it. Was in Thailand for a month starting Dec. 15th. Felt really tired for about 3 days starting Dec 27th, but not really sick. Everything was in my chest.Congestion,soreness, and a little shortness of breath.Then proceeded to have an annoying dry cough for the next two weeks. My symptoms went away right before I flew home.

I never really thought it was the virus because everyone was talking about how serious it was, however my symptoms were mild. I was also mostly over it before it hit the major news networks. I just attributed it to the horrible air quality. The rating was around 150 or higher for the majority of the trip.

I will say I inadvertently self quarantined for about a week because the time change was fricking with me so bad I'm in my mid 20's FWIW.

Actually, a doctor on here yesterday was saying that only about 1/3 of patients present with a fever.

One of major studies out of Wuhan found that while 90%+ of confirmed patients that were hospitalized had a fever, only about half of total confirmed patients had a fever.

I had cold like symptoms, started as sore throat, then sinus infection and chest congestion with cough about 3 weeks ago. Did I have Corona Virus? I didn’t go to doctor, but other than going to store, stayed at home for 3 days. Felt bad, but no body aches.

I possibly had it right as it was hitting the USA. I had a heavy cough, low grade fever, very sore throat, and definitely wasn’t breathing at full strength.

It was worse than a typical common cold, but I never had the serious sinus problems or the body aches of the flu. So it has made me wonder if it was Covid 19.

I’m 98% over it and never got tested. No one I’ve come in contact has gotten sick since.
