Still testing positive, I'm ok bar an annoying cough but still testing positive 8 days later. I get tired quickly for no reason, e.g while watching a movie and an hour later I can barely keep my eyes open.
If it's not gone after 10 days I'm ringing the docs. any advice on cp and the Rona? Other than that all is great!

I don't have CP, but I did have coronavirus back in December @wandering_chris. I felt pretty unwell, and still felt fatigued for a short while after. Thankfully, I was pretty much back to normal not long after.
Though it's not specific to CP, the NHS have a website dedicated to recovering from coronavirus, which you might like to take a look at
I'm also wondering whether @Richard_Scope may have some advice on this. -
Hi @wandering_chris
I have quad CP and had Covid back in December. The best advice I can really give is to stay really hydrated and rest as much as you possibly can. The fatigue (although most have a level of that with CP) and the cough were the last to leave me.Scope

I definitely felt like my energy levels were lower than usual the week after testing negative again.
