Symptoms
-
Dry cough all weekend. Low-grade fever. Nausea is the same. Lots of fatigue.
She was tested on Friday, but no results yet.
She lost her sense of smell this morning.
Getting tested again.
Monday’s patient left me a voicemail. She said she has been sick for a while but didn’t want me to know because I would cancel the appointment and that would look bad for court. I’m not calling her back now and I’m recusing myself. Goddamn it. Good thing she signed a form saying she didn’t have any symptoms Monday. That did me a lot of good...

Ugh.

Amen.

Hoping it ends up being a mild case, with a quick recovery.
+1 She's young and should recover without too much trouble. I hope that's exactly what her experience is with this. Yet I understand your concern and am glad you are staying in touch with her regularly. Please keep us posted.

She’s young and healthy and comes from a healthy family. I trust she will be fine, but the worry has got to be very difficult.
Has she started taking Famotodine or anything else to help mitigate symptoms?

Sorry to hear. Fingers crossed.
A good friend of mine caught it, a bit older. She was just miserable for about a week, nothing indicating hospitalization needed. She lost taste and smell and made little progress for months but now suddenly is 100% back on both.

Sorry to hear this, George. If it helps at all I have two healthy colleagues of my age who caught it and shook it off in a week with no real ill-effects.
