antigen test this morning came out positive. I had to walk 30 mins each way to a pharmacy to get my state mandated PCR test. surprisingly I was feeling okay all day until a few hours ago, when I crashed hard. just ate some bread and took an ibuprofen, hopefully that'll help

fwiw I'm triple vaxxed

State mandated PCR test (where they send the sample off to a lab). since antigen tests have false positives and whatnot

nope, first time. I did have a scare about a year ago though, where the antigen test was positive but the PCR test was negative

It's the law in my state (and possibly the rest of the country, I'm not too sure). If you get a rapid test and it's positive you have to take a PCR test to 'confirm' the positive result

Gotcha. So the timeline is, you weren't feeling well so you took a quick one. That came back positive, so the law says you have to go get a PCR.

Accurate?

average run time for this covid movie is 5 days. maybe 10 if it's the long version.
people have gotten long covid despite vaccination.

here's hoping you don't get any of that.

Get pedialyte or that Gatorade version and stay hydrated. Take care of yourself, you'll pull through in a few days.

Even if you have no appetite, try to eat, it always helps after.

So I received my test result for the PCR test. Positive, as expected. I can enter my name in the online form and get a certificate, which I can later use as proof of 'vaccination' (people who have recently recovered from CoVID have the same status as vaccinated individuals here). The catch is that the name I enter has to match the name the pharmacy tech entered when she carried out my PCR test. And based on the error codes I'm getting, it seems like she entered my name wrong, despite having it in front of her on my ID card

I got it a month ago, with really bad throatache too.

Switch between ibuprofen and paracetamol to avoid getting a too high daily dose of either.

i seemed to remember those now. they seem to work better for dehydration. ice cream is kinda fattening compared to as many popsicles as one can down.

Yeah, see what I mean. It's a drug used to treat covid, afaik you can only be prescribed it if you're "high-risk" (obese, old, etc.)

Reduces the risk of death by like 89% or something

Still positive, but the line is not as strong compared to previous days

As for symptoms, all that really remains is the coughing and the ear infection-like stuff. Might call my doctor and ask about the latter

The coughing is probably going to stick around for another week at least, when it's over your chest is going to feel absolutely ravaged, so be prepared for that.
