Hello,
My daughter (29 years old) and I (54 years old) have been running low to moderate fevers and mild symptoms for 3 weeks. Today, I feel far worse than before with a sore throat, headache, dry cough, and fever. My daughter feels fine, just running a low grade fever. I know every case is different, but I want to know if anyone else has or had experienced something similar? Thank you.

I think this disease can take a lot longer than the authorities are suggesting. It might be worth contacting NHS 111 or your Doctor, but I'm not sure there is much they can do. As long as your breathing is fine, it is probably just a case of looking after yourself until you improve. But a medical opinion might set your mind at rest. Take care of yourself.

I think talking to your doctor might make you feel better about it. But unless you're having trouble breathing the doctor will suggest self-care at home.

I haven’t had those symptoms but is there anywhere that you can be tested? I think it would be a good idea since you said you were feeling far worse than you were before. hopefully everything will be OK but if you ever developed shortness of breath, get yourself checked out. Take care!

I self diagnosed with the standard symptoms the first week of March and returned to work the first week of April. Four days later I fell ill again, with similar and extra symptoms. I am still ill, with a sort of 3 steps forward 2 steps back scenario over the last 2 weeks. Overall I think I am improving. Around midday I feel ready for bed again (sometimes I give in). My airwaves seem sensitive to extremes in temperature/humidity, and as the day progresses they become sore/burn. My brain is active but my body is fatigued. Related depression/anxiety has been ongoing but manageable. I am 55 and female. Speedy recovery & best wishes to all.

Hope you're feeling better soon. I think that's what I've had for the last 14 days and it's rough. I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

Absolutely Yes. I would have some energy do a few things be up for 2 hours and then have to sleep for 6 hours the mild symptoms, swollen glands sore throat some sneezing would return as well as Brain Fog. I celebrated the day I did not have to take a nap! 6 weeks later.
I had to learn to take it easy. Hope you feel better soon but do not rush it.

I tested for COVID-19 on Wednesday, April 22nd. They called me this morning the test was negative so I'm confused as to what is going on. Anyway, maybe I'll start feeling better soon.
