@annbin - that sounds like a bad dose. Have you recovered now?
Weāve been getting out of bed, with a struggle, and with aching, fatigued bodies, then basically sitting still in comfortable warm clothes the remainder of the day. Iām not so bad in terms of being mentally fogged out, so I have been coming in to the community to keep up to date and write a few things, but physically Iām wiped and get breathless coughing bouts from just walking a little or dizzy if I stand quickly etc.
Iāve just tested positive again this morning so on it goes.
Sounds good any day of the week, covid or not!
get well soon @Richard_close2u . We were only commenting the other day that we have seemingly escaped it OR certainly had no symptoms. Neither my wife, kids or myself have had any symptoms since day 1 and despite testing never got a positive result. That said we did have go to see family last weekend and most have had it in the last few weeksā¦so a thatāll be a test. Weāre as up to date with our jabs as we can be so weāll wait and see.
Richard, yes it has always been part of my daily routine I forgot to mention that during covid I started taking several deep breaths (7 - 10) through the nose while washing to maximize the benefits. It works for me. But I suppose a hot shower would work as well.
Hi Richard, Iām reading this only nowā¦I hope youāll get well soon! In the meanwhile just rest, itās the only way to get all your energies back.
Hang in there we had it last year in June the fog came after the cough stayed for about 5 weeks we had had 3 injections hate to think what it could have been like without them stay safe keep warm and donāt push your self it takes time to get over it I was positive for about a week and a half.
Sorry to hear you are sick Richard. Rest up and I hope you feel better soon!
I hope you feel better soonā¦
Get well soon Richard @Richard_close2u
Strange isnāt it, Covid has disappeared from the news in the UK and yet in the last couple of months I have heard of more relatives, friends and acquaintances with it than I ever have had since the start, most of them like you have had all the jabs.

Get well soon Richard
Richard, I hope your unwanted visitor leaves soon. It looks like this Community is providing you at least a bit of distraction from feeling cruddy!
Hello Richard, I hope youāll get well soon. All the best .
Still testing positive.
Still feeling lousy.
I dare not say or suggest anything, but I do pray for you several times a day, that you will get well asap!
Careful there, I ended up passing out, falling and hitting my head on the granite counter. Was not a pretty sight! All fine now though. Told people I was in a bar fight.
Get well soon Richard! Wish you all the best
Thatās because the jabs canāt keep up with the mutations. Similar to the flu, you never know for sure if the yearly shot will be effective or not. Itās a crap shoot.
Exactly this. I had my first ever flu jab in time for this winter and I caught the most hideous bout of flu in February anyway that put me in bed for 11 days and took many weeks to recover from.
In terms of being careful thereās only so much you can do before youāve basically got no life and still could catch these things. I rarely go to pubs, get my groceries delivered, live alone and only go to the office once a week on either a Monday or Friday which are the quiet days but I still caught covid last summer and then this awful flu thing this year.
Been there, man, not a good feeling. Youāll get better after a couple of weeks. Stay strong and positive.
I assume you mean mentally
Cheers,
Keith
