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.

Sorry to hear. Are you monitoring oxygen?

About the same - no worse (coughing, congestion, extreme fatigue). I'm pretty much a lump on the sofa or bed. Hope to try a different testing place as I still haven't heard from the first.

Well, at least no worse...
Your bride?

Went to a different testing place - seemed a bit more together and took the quick test. We both got a negative finding for COVID. We are both still heavily fatigued though less congestion. I'm guessing we caught the flu - though both of us had the flu shot. Still, if this is a milder version of the flu, I'd hate to meet the real deal.

You've got man-flu, dude.
Very relieved to hear it.

Did either of you lose sense of taste or smell?

@jolly No, we can taste and smell - the one major symptom we missed from the onerous list. Also, while the quick test is less accurate, the fact that both of us got negative results provided some assurance that we're dealing with a flu.
As George noted, nice to not have to contemplate long-term issues.
This morning I feel about 10% better - congestion isn't in the chest as much - though my voice sounds ideal for FM radio.

It's been going around... sinusitis, bronchitis, etc. I had it for nearly 2 weeks. I've had a flu shot too. The lack of breath part scared me, but I never lost my sense of taste or smell, so I was pretty sure it was n't covid. I feel for you guy.... it just takes the punk out of you..

Same here. Haven't been on a bike in 2 weeks. Maybe Friday.

Kluurs, we are hearing similar here. People coming down with flu like symptoms yet testing negative for C19 and despite having had flu shots. Everyone is just assuming it’s the Omicron and hunkering down accordingly. Anyhow, I hope you and your spouse recover quickly from whatever bug it is you picked up.
