It might be my turn

[kluurs]

Started today - chest congestion, slight cough, fatigue, general malaise... Went and got the test, but no result yet. The lines at testing places are out of this world.

My molecular biologist spouse says that even it is negative, I shouldn't give that credence as people who have gone through the booster seem to test false negative with greater frequency - at least early on. In any event, we will see how this plays out - but definitely just in time for Christmas.

Geez...hope it's a nothingburger.

And, if it's not, hope it's the most moderate and mild outcome possible.

[kluurs]

Makes two of us.

Ugh, hang in there. Fortunately you are vaccinated and have a high degree of protection from serious cases.

Either way, I’d start loading up on Vitamin D, Vitamin C, and Zinc Lozenges. There are questions about whether they help, but they sure won’t hurt! Keep us updated!

Hoping it turns out to be a common cold or less, Ken.

Why are you wishing a coronavirus on him?

Jeez....

It looks like my spouse is a few hours behind me. She's also feeling carpy now. That's concerning as she is immunocompromised.

Last night I ran 8 miles at a good pace. Tonight, took the garbage to the alley - which seemed like a lot.

I think we'll both go for another round of tests tomorrow - even though I have not had a result provided as of yet.. My spouse is at the University of Illinois where they have nearly 100% compliance with vaccines - and they've had a few hundred come down with COVID over the past week.

Sorry to hear this Kluurs. Really hope you and your wife's symptoms are short-lived.

Update?

[George K]

Bump....

[kluurs]

Still waiting on test results. Very fatigued, lots of congestion. Mrs. Kluurs has all the symptoms I have plus nausea. Going up stairs is very tough. I joked that if something hits the floor, it may stay there a while.

[George K]

Thanks for the update.

Hopefully this will pass quickly.

And you and the Mrs. will recover in a heartbeat.

I know it sounds silly, but try to have a reasonable Christmas.

Sorry to hear. Are you monitoring oxygen?
