Flashing smile, Asa, Stickymockwell…. How’s the COVID?? 10:53 - Mar 23 with 1420 views | unstableblue | Wondering if you were feeling better? And getting back to normal? (Yes I know we’re supposed to ‘just get on with it’ and ‘millions have it why mention it’) I’ve had symptoms since Sunday. Monday and Tuesday were bed ridden flu symptoms… but was feeling better last night and was convinced it was almost over, then woke up with a b@stard sore throat at 4am this morning. Just knackered today but trying to do some work, as getting behind. Got a positive PCR through Monday. And lateral flow this morning a very strong line - so guess still contagious. Don’t want to give to my lad who has exams. At least it’s sunny!! |  |

Flashing smile, Asa, Stickymockwell…. How’s the COVID?? on 17:26 - Mar 23 with 1286 views | LegendofthePhoenix | I tested positive (for the first time) on Monday morning. No symptoms, worked from home (as per my employers policy), then yesterday started to get a stiff neck. Then about 9 pm, suddenly became feverish and shivering. Today absolutely everywhere aches, and keep getting hot & sweaty spells. Coughing, sneezing as well. Like flu, no really sore throat yet....... I'm sure I picked it up at Oxford. Get well soon all. |  |

Flashing smile, Asa, Stickymockwell…. How’s the COVID?? on 17:39 - Mar 23 with 1273 views | belgablue | Get well soon. I'm currently on day 12 and feel back to normal now, if a tiny bit bunged up. From day 4 it was the sore throat and fatigue that got me but I seem to have finally shaken both. When I first tested positive I was expecting something pretty mild but I found it pretty rough, I'm relatively young and tripple jabbed as well! |  |

Good to hear you're back to normal. 12 days to be fully back to normal seems long, when young and triple jabbed sounds long, but guess my have been worse if not jabbed. Day 2 and 3 I got my worse symptoms, now on day 4 and just knackered (possibly as been up since 5am with the b@stard throat - which has really cleared through today) with mild flu symptoms only. So sounds like you had it worse than I. Its everywhere currently, and it seems most people are getting it sooner rather than later. Ipswich one of the highest case areas in the UK. Plus areas like Maldon in Essex. |  |

Get well soon legend. I also have a b@stard sore neck! what a bizarre ailment it is. And clearly very very transmissible. But hopefully its just a bad case of flu for the TWTDers rather than anything worse. |  |

Yeah we picked it up in Essex, I travel a lot for work and managed to avoid for two years but guess it had to happen at some point. I'd say I felt normal from about day 8, just the lingering bunged up nose and tiredness. I must have got through a pack of strepsils and halls soothers a day. Good luck with the sleep, that was the most annoying part. |  |

Flashing smile, Asa, Stickymockwell…. How’s the COVID?? on 18:10 - Mar 23 with 1203 views | The_Flashing_Smile | Getting there, thanks for asking. I'm on day 8 and the sore throat has almost gone now. Just really knackered. Still testing positive and been isolating away from Lady Dollers, who amazingly is still negative. Bored of these 4 walls but at least the pain has gone. |  |
| Trust the process. Trust Phil. |

Flashing smile, Asa, Stickymockwell…. How’s the COVID?? on 18:17 - Mar 23 with 1191 views | PhilTWTD | I've had it since early last week and not showing too many signs of going away as yet, hence sniffliness on podcast. Similarly very knackered. Get well soon all, although I realise from certain other posters we really all ought to just ignoring it and be getting on with it.

Flashing smile, Asa, Stickymockwell…. How’s the COVID?? on 18:19 - Mar 23 with 1165 views | Steve_M | I've joined the ranks of the infected. Came home yesterday and felt fine only to deteriorate fairly rapidly, slept badly and it's sort of come in waves today - feel ok at one point and then sh1t again 20 minutes later. Sore throat, bit of a cough, feverish at times. I guess I've got a few days of this to look forward to and then hopefully better during next week. At least I avoid rail replacement bus sh1te on Saturday now! |  |

cheers usb. The neck is I think the worst symptom so far, it really is a b@stard. Neck and shoulders. I hadn't hear of that as a symptom. |  |

Look you don’t have to be brave for us. Do you want someone to take over the running the board for a while? |  | |  |
Flashing smile, Asa, Stickymockwell…. How’s the COVID?? on 18:47 - Mar 23 with 1118 views | Asa | Thanks for asking. Feint line on the LFT yesterday and even feinter today so should be negative today or tomorrow judging by how the wife and kids tests went the same way. Slight cough still but that aside I feel back to normal. Just very tired from a couple of weeks of the whole house being ill and sleep being all over the show. Get well soon and hope the others mentioned are doing better too. [Post edited 23 Mar 2022 18:48]

If anything speaks to how nasty Covid can be, it’s got to be you breaking your wall of neutrality with a slightly sarcastic (and justified) tone there, Philip :) Get well soon. |  | |  |
Flashing smile, Asa, Stickymockwell…. How’s the COVID?? on 19:01 - Mar 23 with 1087 views | mylittletown | Very faint line yesterday and began to feel a bit better, Today I feel really rough and the T was back as a very strong line, 8 days in.. One of my friends is still testing positive on day 11 and he still has a terrible sore throat. |  | |  |

Get well soon Phil... sounds like you're experiencing a longer bout! I got bullish and went for walk in the sun, and then came back for a much needed siesta. Banjoed. Kudos to the 'certain other posters' line, firstly where was the compassion for fellow board members, but secondly as the growing length/information of this thread perhaps proves... the transmissibility and symptoms of covid are something different |  |

Sounds like my symptoms were pretty mild in comparison to some of you, so hope everyone recovers soon. |  | |  |

Cheers. Indeed, there's a lot of it around at the moment and not felt as rough as this for years. Just glad I've had three jabs and am pretty fit, assume it would be somewhat worse if not. |  | |  |

Think Ipswich one of the highest case rates in the country. Yes, if someone was in ill health and unfit not sure they’d have liked my Monday night much!!! |  |
