BrokenArrow 52 Posted July 6, 2022 My kids teacher had covid. Pretty sure he brought it home to me. My kid was sick for about a week and he's fine now. Well, right after that I got sick. I don't have shortness of breath or anything really bad but what I do have is probably the worst congestion of my life. I blow my nose every 30 seconds or so all day long. I also have a pretty bad sinus pressure headache basically all day long. I lost my sense of taste and smell about 4 days ago and I still have absolutely nothing back. I have been dealing with the overall symptoms for about a week or so, maybe 8-9 days. I don't really seem to be getting any worse, but I don't really seem to be getting any better either. I don't really know what to do here. I don't want to go to the hospital or the doctor just for a stuffy nose, I feel that it kind of a waste of time but I'm just so worried I'm gonna end up getting a ton worse out of no where. Right now my daily tasks are pretty much the same. No fever, no shortness of breath, no extreme tiredness but this congestion is just insane, worst I've ever had times 10. Also, I haven't been tested so it might not even be covid, I'm sure it is but I don't know for 100% certain. I just wanna feel better and be able to breathe out of my nose.

PennyPanic 275 Posted July 6, 2022 I have a friend who had the monoclonal antibodies treatment after getting covid and he was feeling better within hours. Personally, I'd get tested...there are several antiviral treatments/pills/etc...now that can help. Hang in there and keep us posted. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
