Hi!

I tested positive yesterday and I’d consider my experience so far no different than a flu would be for me usually. 

Should I still go for Paxlovid and what other recommendations do you guys have? I’ve not yet been able to reach a medical professional. 

Any and all experiences are welcome.

    Hi @daisymae23
    I cannot give direct medication advice for Covid-19. However, I have had Covid twice and relied upon plenty of rest and staying hydrated. 

    Should you start to feel worse you must contact a medical professional.

    @Biblioklept I no longer have a fever but cough still persists. I’m assuming that’s normal. Didn’t end up taking Paxlovid as it was pretty late to start taking it. ❤️
