Did you experience a resurgence of symptoms after the Paxlovid wore off?

A bit, yes.

It will be interesting to see what happens when his course of Paxlovid is over.

Is 10 doses a large number?

[kluurs]

I had 10 doses. Yes, it had a dramatic effect within 24 hours - but I'm at day 17 and still not well. I test negative - but still have respiratory issues. I could work in my current condition - but a lot of physical activity would be contraindicated - (e.g. campaigning).

Kluurs- have you resumed jogging?

[Mik]

I think they gave me five. I never took them after reading about the side effects, and everyone I knew who took it relapsed.

Nope. I've done weights for the past week - but no running. I'm feeling like I may be into the final stretch at the moment.

Yeah, I wish I'd done a bit more research on Paxlovid - though I probably would still have taken it. It did seem to have a pretty positive impact. From friends who've done Paxlovid, most said they'd skip it the second time - unless they saw the angel of death outside the window.
