Sounds like exactly the way it was for me when I had it. RS!

So what should I expect?

I lost my sense of smell tonight BUT...

I was congested for a few days and have been on Sudafed almost non-stop. I can taste a little, but pretty limited.

Planning to test tonight for COVID. Are there any rapid testing sites around Lakewood? Or should I just do PCR and wait it out?

R"S!!!

My brother in law, sister in law, and neighbor 2 doors down from me have COVID.

Refuah shleima! May very well stay just loss of smell/taste, like so many others including me who didn't develop the rest.

I progressed from there to a sinus infection type feeling and a light cough. Not much more than that other than generally feeling tired. I brought my kids to wide open empty areas for chol hamoed

Sorry to interrupt the conversation here, but I have a question about Covid...

DW and I have had mild symptoms for a few days already. Congestion, cold, cough, and for me, lack of smell also. No fever, fatigue, or any other symptoms. Should I expect that to change for the worse? Is there any reason for me to look into treatments, or could I assume I'll skate by?

If there are any detectives here, they may know from here or here that I weigh more than the average person, which can potentially put me at greater risk if this thing escalates...

There's no way to know if or when things will get worse.
Do you have a pulse ox at home?

So just monitor yourself on that and take it easy for a few more days.
