Sick and terrified

[Mvanessa]

I’m feeling quite sick and getting flu and covid test tomorrow. I’m panicky scared about this. I am immune deficient and rarely have left home since March.

Sorry to hear this.

Do you know when you'll get your results back?

 

[Mvanessa]

I wasn’t able to get test today. I get covid test tomorrow. Dk about the flu swab

 

[may71]

I think they're much better at treating this now than when the outbreak started. It's still dangerous, but not as bad as it was. Not sure if that's any consolation.

I hope your test comes back negative.

How severe have your symptoms been?

 

[Mvanessa]

Flu was negative. I have felt like flu since Sunday. Knocked down and not able to function. Very dizzy with flu like symptoms

 

[may71]

I've read that dizziness can be one of the symptoms for Covid. The fact that your flu test was negative also makes it more likely that it is Covid.

The good news is that if you've already had it for almost a week and you haven't been hospitalized, maybe it's less likely that you will be.

Are you expecting the results of your Covid test by Sunday?

I'm not sure if your doctor needs to know about the symptom of dizziness or not, but maybe.

People at work have same thing going around on top of the normal cold/flu season It sucks we also have covid on our backs to worry about. Lets hope it is not it. When do you get your results back?

 

[Mvanessa]

I’m not sure. Still no results. I got fluids today-was pretty dehydrated and ear tubes replaced

Sorry that you're sick again. Is it worse or better?
