Current Events > Just had another covid test done

(+) Yeah! (+)

I started developing some symptoms over the past couple days. Fevers at night, congestion in my throat, sore throat, chills, and slight headaches.

I never lost my senses of taste or smell, which is a good sign. Should hehe the results within about 15 minutes.

Tested positive for covid. Shit.

Well that sucks. Hopefully it won't get too bad. Any idea what your exposure might have been?

---

Ah, best of luck to you. I've luckily come out clean from the dozens of tests I've had to take for my job

---

that really sucks, man.

hope that you recover well.

Ugh that sucks. I hope you feel better soon. My husband went to get tested this morning but we wont get results for 2-3 days. Rapid testing sites are booked out.

So far no fever, cough or aches. But hes had sore throat, runny nose and congestion. It seems like a cold but you never know.

Hes quarantined in a room away from me as a precaution.

If this has any long term effects on Cable I'm going to fucking RAGE!

Shit, I felt that. Any idea what might have led to this? Hope you don't have any issues from this.

On the 10th I had someone come out to fix my washer / dryer and he seemed to be sick. That's the only thing that sticks out in my mind.

I and my roomates have all those symptoms as well

Any trouble breathing?

that's where you most likely caught it from no doubt about it.
hopefully it ends without no long term effects they suck hard.

No trouble breathing. I've gained a considerable amount of weight back since I've been stuck inside, but I just ran up the stairs to get to my apartment without any trouble.

have you been going into the office

I've been to a couple different locations since I tested negative on the 16th

Man... I'm so glad I switched jobs last year. If I was still at my old job, I'd most likely still have to work through all of this. But this new company has a robust COVID-19 plan for employees where we aren't required to work at all while we recover. They've even gone so far as to switch out the on call shift that I was supposed to start tomorrow.

Seems like a little thing, but this is so fucking major to me

Diarrhea?

Diarrhea?

Nope

A rapid test? Don't those have a much higher chance of false positives?

I think so, but I've been feeling like shit the past few days, so I don't think this is a false positive.
