#jn1 #jn1variant covid #covid19 #covid_19
Just got positive Covid test yesterday. Four days prior I felt tiredness, constant coughing, congestion, hot and cold chills, loss of appetite, headache on left side, frequent urination, I want to say that it came on Monday. Today being Friday I still have symptoms. …
Currently have Covid. 8 days ago I thought I was coming down with it then felt fine for a couple of days. Then 5 days ago my throat got sore that night which progressed to being achy. Woke up the next morning with a terrible headache. Those first 48hrs were sleeping, headache, body aches, slight congestion, chills and shivers mostly during night, and fluctuating fever from 99.9 to peaking at around 102.7. Fever broke after that. I'm on day 5 since onset of sore throat/fever, etc. A couple of symptoms different than the past couple of times I've had it are eye pain and gas. The symptoms I've experienced so far are:
-Sore throat
-Fever
-Body Aches/ Feeling Crappy
-Headache
-Eye/Behind Eye pain when moving
-Extreme Gassiness
-Supressed appetite in waves with random mild nausea
-Blocked/Stuffy Nose
-Random Sneezes
-Ear Pain/Pressure/Feeling Full or Blocked
-Random Sharp Pains
-Bottom of Feet Hurt When Standing to Walk
-Stuffy Sinuses/Feeling Like Chest is Tight With Mucus That's About to Start Breaking it up
-Worse Anxiety/Worry/Depression
-Irritability
-Increased Thirst
-Taste is Fully Present, but Tastes Different. Bitter Sometimes
-Dripping but Also Stopped Up Nose
-Clicking and Painful Ears (Whole Area From Head to Collarbone
(Husband and oldest daughter similar, except theyve had a cough too, as well as diarrhea for a day)
Note: None of us Have Ever Been Vaccinated.
I tested positive today and had loads of them on your list too.
The random sneezes, sore throat, fever and muscles aches. Plus the gassiness and I have an awful headache.
I just tested positive and I have most of these symptoms. I noticed on the first day I felt sick my left arm was feeling numb/tingly too.
@@amethystlake yep all of that. I thought the gassiness was just me 😂.
But the excessive sneezing, nose dripping and also stuffed up, fever, exhaustion, brain fog, sore throat .. all of it.
I am vaccinated though. This is the new variant I guess.
Everyone in our household has Covid.
We all originally thought we had sinus infections throat pain, congestion, stuffiness of ears. Then there was chest pain which then extended to the full body. Very very bad pains, fevers chills, congestion in chest and nose, excruciating headaches. I’ve had Covid before and the weird subtleness stood out to me at beginning.
oh wow- so sorry to hear you're all sick! hope you get better soon and thanks for wrting!
My name is healer_a2zee.
on Instagram.
Have a solution of it.
Me and my family are suffering from the same symptoms you mentioned since December 19
I first experience with covid. Dec 23 started with watery eyes, felt pressure on my left eye for 2 days. The worse headache. Lost taste and smell immediately. Chills, joint pains( but no fever) and cough. My ears feel full. I'm very fatigued. Sleeping alot. My husband also has it. Same symptoms. Though he did have a fever for 3 days and he also said that his toes hurt alot. Hopefully well start feeling better soon.
I haave same symtoms.from pakistan😢. But no cough. I thought its allergy .. so i took fexet
I have the symptoms for 3 days, how are you now?
My dude, you're describing a flu. Quite a far cry from people dropping dead in the middle of the street like they tried to claim in my country (Canada). Take some Tylenol and rest for 3 days. You'll be fine.
@@shaistakhan270you have IVM in Pakistan freely available not sure why you don’t know about it for COVID??
Did you ever go through a period where it felt like your brain was swelling?
Got Covid for the first time 3 weeks ago. I've had all the vaccines and boosters etc. up until this last JN.1 variant as my city really didn't make it a big deal about it. My symptoms started with feeling really down/off, like I knew I was getting sick really fast within 3 hours; bad headache, weird feeling in my eyes. Went home from work on my lunch break and tested positive. I was freezing the first day and half (even though I had only a very very mild fever) and headache was still bad. Then my head got filled up with pressure and I felt dizzy and unsteady gait. Super stuffed up! Like I felt my nasal passages and brain were swollen and had a tight belt around my head. Lost taste and smell. Thank goodness my lungs were not too affected during the bad days. I tested negative last Sunday the 25th of Feb. Was able to return to work, but my eyes are really bad, dry and itchy. Not like Pink Eye, just messed up. Also, I still sound stuffed up to people who know me, and a bit tired still. The lungs are now breaking up. My eyes are really worrying me as I am an artist. So, I will probably be seeing my Dr. about this. ~ The recovery will probably take a while for me as I have Hashimotos Autoimmune. But at least I can return to normal daily duties.
Sorry to hear you’re under the weather. Hoping that you get better soon!
I am also a family practice provider and I was just diagnosed yesterday- I feel like I weigh 1000lbs, extremely low energy and dry cough. Not much congestion, no GI sxs, etc. The lack of energy is the worst. Thank you for the info!
Hang in there, fellow family doc! Send you prayers!
I was diagnosed on the 9th. Thought it was a sinus infection and the flu. Never got a fever. Didn’t realize I lost my sense of smell and some taste until I was almost finished my oatmeal. It’s just strange
@DrJenCaudle QUESTION:
DID PEOPLE WHO GET VACCINATED STILL GET COVID?
ANSWER:
YES.
NEXT QUESTION:
ARE VACCINATED PEOPLE CONTRACTING JN.1?
ANSWER:
YES.
I AM A CERTIFIED CHIEF PHYSICIAN AND I CANNOT SUPPORT THIS MADNESS.
HERE YOU ARE TELLING PEOPLE TO GET VACCINATED WHEN THEY CAN STILL GET COVID AND JN.1.
THAT WOULD MEAN THAT IT IS NOT PROTECTION YOU.
AND YOU SAID THAT THOSE THAT HAVE OR HAD COVID ARE CONTRACTING JN.1.
I AM PRETTY SURE THAT MOST IF NOT ALL OF THEM ARE VACCINATED.
YOU SHOULD BE FIRED AND SUED.
LONG TERM STUDIES WERE NOT CONDUCTED ON THE COVID VACCINE WHICH BRINGS ME TO THE LAST QUESTION:
HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT THE VACCINE IS NOT WHAT IS CAUSING THIS OUTBREAK?
ANSWER?:
THE MARK OF THE BEAST
It's the JagJabclotshot, dear.
Currently have COVID. Tested positive yesterday. Symptoms: sore throat (initially), now nasal congestion, fatigue, some chills at night. No cough. Not so bad. I am in Virginia. Second time having COVID. No vaccines taken. No loss of smell or taste yet.
Oh wow hope you get better soon!
I thought i have seasonal allergy .. but its covid .. i have blocked nose, sore throat , and bodyaches
What medicine aare you taking. My immunity is weak . And i think i got covid too. I have few symptoms
Both times that I have had COVID I immediately begin lots of Vitamin C, Zinc, B Complex, Quercetin, and use a Netti pot twice a day with a salt solution. Also gargle three times a day with Crest or Listerine. Hope you feel better soon.
@@droberts276You missing the most important Vitamin D3! and Magnesium, K2 mk7.
My family recently caught COVID in October. My household never caught it until this October. Afterwards I was like thank God it wasn't that bad, remember at the beginning the symptoms of it were horrible? Apparently it's not that bad this time around, feels like a regular cold, depending on how well you keep up with your health.
My children had mild symptoms, we all were really exhausted.
My symptoms were exhaustion, a day of body aches. OMG I can't explain the pain I felt in the lower half of my body, my legs felt like jello and hurt at the same time.
My youngest was hospitalized, but that's because he has Sickle Cell, the COVID aggravated his sickle cell, he had a 104 temp, for SC patients high temps are critical, because Viruses and bacterial infections send SC patients into pain a crisis.
We were all tested for COVID at the hospital and I don't remember hearing this variant come up, so idk if we had this one or not.
We all slept for days 😂 though I do know that. Exhaustion is a real big symptom of it.
And this time it seems like COVID is mimicking a cold, and COVID can be asymptomatic so people might think they have a regular cold but indeed have COVID.
So be careful out there everyone, don't let your guard down and keep your mask up. Especially when going out into public.
And if you have any pre-existing conditions, please please please take care of yourself. Now is the time to do any doctor visits if you can ❤
Oh wow very sage advice for everyone out there- thanks so much for sharing your experience with your family! Pls stay safe!
I'm absolutely terrified for the long term health of my friends and family that took the triple you know what.
You still on that dum sheep bs? Lol any day now, right? 😆 🤣
Exhaustion, body aches (need to sleep all the time), severe headache that doesn't really go away with painkillers but low grade fever thankfully.
:-(
Are you okay now?
I just tested positive Friday and feel fine physically (it is even way easier to get up in the morning) but I find myself in an extraordinarily bad mood, continuously impatient and making everybody with whom I come in contact angry.
Funny thing is my nose always runs, except now. This week it has been remarkably clear!
I’m glad you don’t feel too sickB
Just got diagnosed after going to the hospital early this morning with extreme nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, general inability to keep liquids down. Thought I had a stomach bug or food poisoning, but it’s Covid, really awful, but paxlovid, Zofran, and ibuprofen seem to be helping quite a bit. No sore throat or breathing issues at all like my first COVID experience in January. Really appreciate the video, you’ve got my subscription!💜
Aww you’re so kind and I hope you start feeling better really soon! Hang in there!
How do you know it's not a false positive? Jerry Mullis the inventor of the PCR said it should only be used for lab research only
@@pure-blood69how do you know if you’re a conspiracy theorist jackass?
Ah! I was looking to see if anyone had commented about having vomiting and diarrhoea with Covid!!!
Same symptoms here
I’m currently getting over COVID and I can say it sucks. It started as a mild sore throat and that night I had post nasal drip. I tested negative at home because I knew I was exposed at Christmas.
The next day my legs were sore, I started to lose my voice, and it felt like I had tons of junk in my chest that I couldn’t clear. When I went up my stairs it felt like I was on my 30th flight of stairs which is crazy because I typically run several miles a week. I tested negative at home again.
The following day (day three of symptoms) is when it hit me. 102 plus fevers all day, body aches, and I started coughing up yellow crap. You have to keep coughing to clear that stuff. Today is day four and I had a terrible headache earlier and body aches, but that it’s getting better. I also feel like everything smells bland, which is very very odd. It’s like walking around smelling a freshly painted house or something. I tested positive at a drive through test site.
This is my first time getting Covid. I honestly felt like I had Flu A strand, but it came on much slower (which is probably why it’s so contagious).
Gosh I’m so so sorry- you might qualify for paxlovid- have you called your doctor?
@@DrJenCaudle My doctor wants me to ride it out unless my O2 goes below 92 (my wife is an ER Nurse). They laid out treatment and COVID isolation protocol for someone who has been vaccinated and received boosters.
Thanks for making this video. We are a family of 5...all of us had it. I would say more gestational in the kiddos. This variant is no joke. It makes me concerned with seniors and the immune compromised. It's winter people, take your vitamins and remember to exercise. God bless.
Oh no and I’m so sis prey to hear-hopefully you’re all doing ok now 🙏🏾
I, along with my 18-year-old son, have it. I'm immunocompromised and have asthma. My son has a strange thing called pericardial effusion hospitalized 3 times in 5 months. Doctors at Stanford don't know what's causing it all to say. I'm very worried as his doctors said it can cause his pericardial effusion to flair, which is a build of fluid on his heart. This is a nightmare. My symptoms are eye pain, headache, fatigue, body aches, sore throat, dry cough, chest pain just feeling blah. They prescribed me a Pavoxid (wrong spelling) five-day course. Be careful out there, people. Blessings to all. Thank you, Dr Jen, for making these videos.
Wow I’m so sorry you and your son have it though I’m glad you have paxlovid. And pericardial effusions can be scary. Hope they figure out what’s going on and wishing you and your son the best!
@@DrJenCaudle Thank you so much!
It's the JagJabclotshot, dear.
This is my second time I have had Covid. Brain fog so real and worse this time than first time. It was interesting I unrelated to my Covid but I broke my wrist about a year ago and sometimes mildly tender. With Covid it was much more sore than normal,
gosh i'm so so sorry- hope you get better soon
Wow ok so I broke my wrist too, a year prior to getting covid and it almost felt like covid was highlighting all my sore spots 100x over… especially my wrist area
Dr. Jen Caudle, Your videos always make me happy, so I subscribed!
Wow, thank you!
*Just a reminder:* CDC defines "covid hospitalization" as ANY hospitalization with a positive test result ... including car crashes, etc.
I don’t think so
@@DrJenCaudle CDC "covid hospitalization" 2023: " patients hospitalized with a documented positive SARS-CoV-2 test." And that's it. No exceptions.
@@DrJenCaudle You're wrong. It's been documented that people who died in car crashes were labeled "covid deaths" because they tested positive.
@robotron17 Yes a big difference between hospitalised with covid, not because of it. If you break your leg and the hospital staff do a covid test.. are you hospitalised because of covid?
@@waynenixon729 Yes. Fauci used that same example in Newsweek interview: "...if a child goes in the hospital they automatically get tested for COVID and they get counted as a COVID hospitalized individual, when in fact they may go in for a broken leg or appendicitis or something like that."
I didn't get tested for COVID but am assuming I have it. It started out with a bit of a sore throat for 3 days. During that 3 day period there was a little congestion. On the 4th day my nose started to run noticeably. The 5th day I was horribly conjested to the point where I couldn't sleep and had a dry cough. The 6th and 7th day I had a headache behind my eyes, eyes watered, sneezing alot, weird aches in my arms and legs (what we used to call growing pains when we were very young or bone aches) and complete loss of smell and taste. The 8th day I had a bit of diarrhea and coughing up lots of mucus. I haven't had anyhing like this since my children were small. I am 58 years old today and spent most of the day taking it easy. The fatigue wasn't bad. My husband faired better this round than I. My doctor told me last time, "rest when you are tired and walk around when you aren't". That's what I have been doing. Prayers to all those who are sick. This is not fun.
Gosh I’m so so so sorry- hang in there
Thank you so much and I’m so thankful to have found your channel. ❤❤❤
Wow thank you!
@@DrJenCaudle I feel safer here as opposed to an office full of sick people. I have many health problems and several autoimmune conditions. I’m praying this will work out for me because I’m not comfortable with Western Medicine right now. We’ll hope this thing will turn it around..
Good To Be Informed! Thank you 🙏🏼 so much for Sharing ♥️ Dr 🧑⚕️…
My husband and I have covid right now, I've been ill since 21st Dec , aching all over, coughing,blocked nose, no appetite, exhausted,sleeping all the time, no smell or taste ....we're on the mend but it's very slow ...we're in the UK.
Are you okay now?
@@winwinner4851 yes thank you for asking 😊
@@littlelisa2120 did you cough with phlegm? How many days did you recover?
@@winwinner4851 yes we both had phlegm with the cough, I've still got it but my husband is ok
@@littlelisa2120 you have ig or fb? I just have a few questions, im afraid of what im feeling right now, it's hard
I just tested postive for covid.
It started very subtly with a slight headache and eye fatigue.
I thought that was brought on by a lot of driving yesterday as I drove 6 hours to get to my destination.
The symptoms quickly progressed to chills in the back of my neck and all throughout my body.
My nose is very stuffy and I feel aches and difficulty to find the energy to get out of bed.
All I want to do is rest and sleep. I am vaccinated and boosted up to date.
My mom and I got tested positive a few days ago. I have fever, chills, vomiting, body aches and achy ears and leaky eyes. I have the urge to sleep at any moment during the day. So exhausted. I don’t know how long it will last. My mom got hit with it hard. This is our first time getting COVID.
It give you pain behind your eyes if that make senses and a head ache like you're going to have a stroke or something. It's a little bit different then your regular cold and flu. It can take you out.
You’re right!
I have the same symptoms, are you okay now?
Can it make you feel like your brain swelling? Can it causebrain damage if so is it permanent
Sudden onset of freezing, teeth chattering and severe abdominal pain with vomiting on 7/20/24 around 8pm. ER visit at 1:30 am with dehydration, severe stomach pain, lower back pain, fever & vomiting. Negative for Covid. Returned to ER on 7/21 at 5:30pm for same symptoms. Still negative Covid test. Awake all night with continued symptoms with the addition of severe stuffy nose. Finally a POSITIVE at home Covid test at 10:30am on 7/22/24! Never been this sick in my life! Vomiting stopped on 7/23/24 but this stomach pain is horrible!!!
Oh no gosh I’m so sorry
Thank you for the update on the new variant!
No problem!
I caught it for the first time November flying home masked from a medical appointment. My symptoms started with a slight cough for two days. So slight I attributed it to flying from a place where it was cold to a place where it was warm. Day three I tested out of precaution and was shocked to see a postive. That night I got hit with an intense headache that I thankfully was able to sleep through. It was resolved by morning. I noticed my appetite was off the entire time. I am a sushi lover and the day I showed symptoms I ordered sushi for dinner and it resembled fish bait to me. I never skip meals but didn’t want it and found that unusual. The next few days I was averse to anything that wasn’t liquid or a smoothie. Then I was able to tolerate things like ez Mac and cheese. I wouldn’t eat anything that had different textures or wasn’t soft. Essentially solid food seemed like biting into a rock. A kidney bean reminded me of a bug. Strangest food stuff ever. By day three I took paxlovid and metformin both of which my doctors wanted me on to avoid long covid bc I have multiple health conditions including POTS which a lot of people get post covid. This was always the plan to not exacerbate my preexisting issue. Day three I had a sore throat but it was lower than a regular sore throat usually is. I’ve had worse sore throats but it persisted for another day. Day four I had the fatigue everyone talks about. It comes out of nowhere and makes you feel drugged. I assumed I wouldn’t feel it bc my conditions already cause me a great deal of fatigue but this was incredibly different. It reminds me of the scene in the wizard of oz where the witch puts a curse on dorthey, the tin man and the scarecrow in the poppy fields where they all start dropping like flies so they can’t make it to emerald city. It literally is like someone put a curse on you. Thankfully the next day I was fine. I should add up until this time I was well enough to run basic errands and even grocery shop, pick up meds ect and of course I went out masked in an N95 to protect others. The fatigue day was the only day I was home bound. I also noticed some neuropsychiatric symptoms on day 5 and 6, crying, emotional, cranky ect for no reason in particular. I also became incredibly into Taylor swift music. I liked her before but the covid variant made me borderline obsessed her with songs. I spent the rest of my recovery watching the reputation tour as the eras one wasn’t out yet. I found that incredibly strange. That part isn’t a joke at all. Another thing that was weird was along with the emotional symptoms and Taylor swift obsession I also felt like peoples personalities were robotic to me. It was like no one had any emotion. At one point I dubbed my mom “robot” and whatever she said I would just say “ok robot”. I asked my doctor about all this and he said he thinks it was all brain inflammation. My appetite came back and I started eating normally again. The only thing that was constant and that remained the entire time was the cough and it’s not how I imagined it. It was deep and dry with no congestion but not frequent. I was blessed that at night I didn’t cough at all. I had some shortness of breathe after talking long periods. I ended up testing negative on day 11 but was still coughing. It turns out I was left with bronchitis for a few weeks after testing negative. I was subsequently treated with an inhaler and steroids. I am vaccinated but only the primary series and one booster. My doctors decided it was best for me to not be further vaccinated after I had a allergic reaction to my last booster. The worst part was being left with chest pain not from covid but from coughing so hard from bronchitis. That took the longest to heal. I was about 90
Percent recovered when my sister came in for the holidays and infected me with another random virus that wasn’t cold/ flu or strep. The sore throat on that was far worse than Covid. My 80 year old father had been vaccinated from hell to high water. We call him Bob the booster bandit. He had recently been vaccinated a month prior with the omicron booster. It’s interesting bc his symptoms were less than mine. He had a tiny cold. I’m pretty sure I had the JN1 variant bc I got it in an airport or on an airplane around when it was first circulating. It’s a totally different virus than it was several years ago. My experience was very weird but thankfully can be classified as mild. I know other people were not so lucky early on and my heart is with them and their families.
Wired, but simaler thing happened to me, I’d wake up every night at 430-5am and have random songs stuck in my head(which isn’t normal for me) and I’d know way to many words to songs I don’t even care about. There was a lot more but wanna keep it short. Also had a sore hip/leg going on 3 months now, like a pinched nerve, many inflammation who knows.
@@Dave-lg5oz it was strange for sure.
@guitarkatie oh my god -I'm still laughing about some of the things you said cause they're actually so true...I have covid right now(day 5) and I've suddenly become obsessed with a band which I didn't even know existed - Postmodern Jukebox-and have been listening to certain songs over and over(I've subscribed,followed, liked,bought tickets to their next concert etc) and when I'm not listening to it,I just keep hearing it in my head ...also,that 'yes,robot'...😂😂 today I accused my mother and sister of being unfeeling and have been cussing out my friends in my head for no reason.But that 'Bob the Booster Bandit'😂 ....that really made me laugh out loud-thanks for that! I'm feeling better already!
@@alexandratsaliki6577 im glad I could make you laugh! If it makes you feel better my sister was positive last week. My entire family was around her and didn’t get it so the antibodies should be good for awhile. I tested negative on day 11 so hopefully your on the up and up.
I initially had Covid before the vaccine was released and I thought I was experiencing a chemical burn in my lungs because it hurt so much. I ended up going to the doctor but nothing could be done and was told to do OTC meds. The other symptoms I had were fatigue, fever, itchy throat, etc.
I then got vaccinated and was okay for a good long while. I went to New Mexico for a work conference and made a vacation out of it and returned just last week. The next day after returning home my throat was itching so badly. I thought maybe I accidentally inhaled dust. The first two days were just itchy throat, watery eyes, and congestion.
The third day I thought I was going to die. I had an intense fever and was so fatigued I couldn’t move from my bed. I was incredibly dizzy and lightheaded and kept sneezing. My eyes, ears, etc were all continuously running and even worse my stomach started hurting. I suddenly became incredibly nauseous and couldn’t eat even soup and over the following hours my stomach started swelling and felt like a sharp pain. I couldn’t go to the restroom or throw up. It just eventually went away.
The two days I still had extreme fatigue and all of the previous symptoms aside from the stomach pain.
I am now currently on the 6th day of having symptoms and last night I was worried I wasn’t breathing enough while sleeping. It kept me from sleeping well at night and I put on a o2 monitor (finger) at home so it’d wake me up if it dropped too low. I kept feeling like I wasn’t getting enough air. No crackling in my lungs or anything just feels as if my lungs are fatigued or something. I can manually breathe deeply.
I still feel just “off”. My breathing sounds fine and my resting HR is normal (my normal) at around 50-70 BPM. I’m much less congested today but feel like something is in my throat, my throat still itches, I’m a bit nauseous, and definitely still experiencing fatigue/fogginess.
I have it right now i have bad post nasel drip leading to throwing up in the morning, i have muscle ache i have the head confusion and head ache and i had a little respretory issues this morning where it felt like i couldnt catch my breath fully and it hurt to take a really deap breath
My boyfriend and I came down with a bad cold, runny nose, coughing, congestion, and very tired. We do not have fevers or chills. We did 3 covid tests but they came out negative. We have had this since July 5th. What the hell is going on?
Not sure but he should see a doctor
In great Britain just going through these symptoms acute fatigue body pain aches shoulders kidneys and headaches intermittent coughing dry so much it's causing sleepless and trying to starve it.find lying in bed facing upwards relieves coughing
Had it 5 days and feel I'm winning.still on hunger strike.I'm told it's causing concerns with elderly in derbyshire villages now jan3 2024
Ok, I just got covid for the first time 😒. Started on Friday evening with a sore throat. The next day I had a full blown 100+ fever, my head felt like it weighed a ton, headache, ear ache, sore throat, no cough(yet), chills(sometimes I felt hot and cold), my eyes were wet, and stuffy/runny nose. This continued up until Monday night. Tuesday I got tested and was told I had covid at this time my fever broke and it was 98.3. I starting to get stomach pains two day ago. My stomach has been upset for few days.... I thought it was the dayquil, but it was the covid variant. So right now runny nose and coughing to cough up phelgm/sputum are my last symptoms. Dr. Prescribed me with benzonatate for cough. The worst was the sore throat and the fever I was so hot my body felt like I was near a oven!! Also note my heart was racing more than normal during the last 3 days with covid.
Oh no I hope you feel better soon!!!
Me and my daughter had Covid in November around Thanksgiving we had cold like symptoms but the headaches was terrible I had it for two days ughh it started off with a dry cough it gets bad at night my toes started to cramp up I had a low grade fever around 99.9 body aches it was horrible thank God we got over it ‼️‼️‼️‼️
Oh no! But, yes, so glad it’s over!
Runny nose, Congestion, Cough, Sore throat/Itchy throat, headache… i tested positive on an at home covid test that is already expired. Does this mean, I’m covid positive?
January 2nd I started having extreme headaches, pressure in my right eye, sneezing, runny nose, stuffy nose and muscle aches with a scratchy throat. Also fatigue. 6 days later loss of taste. However I doubled up on zinc and vitamins C and magnesium. I also took day and nighttime cold & flu meds. It's the 8th right now having a loss of appetite. For that, I drank a high protein boost. Also drinking Gatorade and water. Trying to stay hydrated. Hopefully, soon, this will be over. I did take a covid test that came up positive. Best of luck to anyone who gets this.
At first I thought it was a head cold. It's like a head cold x100
I am ill with COVID right now. I have had symptoms for 7 days, and have tested positive for 4 days. Initially (when testing negative) I only had a mildly elevated temperature. Once positive, I had a sore throat, a stuffy and runny nose, a headache, a neck ache, and my temperature went up quite a bit. At its worst, my temperature was 102.8. I was concerned if it climbed much more, I would have to go to the ER. Thankfully, I quickly went on Paxlovid once I tested positive, and my nose and throat symptoms went away in about 2 days. My temperature went down to the 99.5 range also after 2 days. As of right now (day 3 of Paxlovid) my temperature is in the 99s, and I feel a bit weak/tired, with a mild headache. I am still testing positive on antigen testing, but it is more of a faint positive.
Just tested positive now but i live in New Zealand 😅 sore throat, runny nose, sneezing heaps, had to use my inhaler last night i felt abit breathless, the body aches yesterday were insane oh and today gastro upset both ends, mad headaches and fever sweats and chills. I have two autoimmune disorders though and bronchistasis so i expect to get sick when i catch something. Not as bad as omicron was for me though. Hoping i only got a few more days of feeling terrible
gosh i'm so so so sorry to hear. hope you'll be getting better soon. and yes, others have mentioned stomach symptoms as well. please hang in there!
I had covid, for the second time, two weeks ago. My symptoms were pretty much exactly how you described. Runny nose and congestion, muscle aches, fever. Lasted about 4 days. Oddly, my wife didn't get it this time. Maybe it helped that I just happened to not give her any kisses for two days before my symptoms started. Wore a KF95 masks to help
It’s good you wore a mask and that might have helped! Glad your wife didn’t get it and hope you’re feeling better!
Hello Dr. Jen my grandson came home from college and got Covid but he hasn’t had any symptoms and no complaint for 5 days now. I think that’s great but I on the other hand have contracted a bug that hit me hard but I’m negative for Covid. I needed antibiotics and my doctor gave me steroids because of my COPD. My voice is almost gone although I don’t have sore throat I have never had a cold like this before ever. I planned to spend time with my grandson but he doesn’t want to come over because he thinks he’s going to make me even sicker. I don’t think so but what do you think?? Any advice helps. ❤
I think he should follow cdc guidelines and isolate per the cdc since he had covid
I have Covid now first time having it, my symptoms were runny nose, sneezing, body aches, headache, sore throat and exhausted. I’m feeling better now it’s been 12 days since I had it and my test is still coming back positive. When should I test again and am I still contagious?
hi there and i'm sorry you had covid but glad you're feeling better! what you should do is google "cdc covid isolation" guidelines to find out what to do next! sometmies the test can stay positive for a while
@@DrJenCaudle but is sneezing one of the symptoms
Just got my postive test today. Was exposed on Thursday last week. I felt bad starting yesterday. So tested today and had major congestion, couldn't really move around or talk much today. No fever as far as I can tell. I am fully vaccinated.
Oh no hang in there
First 2 weeks I had a dry cough, no fever..went to the doctor I also complained of no taste buds...doctors at Kelsey Sebold wouldn't give me a COVID test, told me to go spend more money at CVS for a test...i went home instead. Worked as an educator for another week in school until I could not take it anymore, end of second week I had lung pain with congested cough, a little runny nose, no fever or chills or aches..into third week I demands at test from another medical provider with had sneezing, excessive phlegm in lungs bronchitis.. into 3rd week I had 3 days of pink eye, everything lasted 4weeks to drain lung congestion. Had to be placed on steroids and asthma inhaler and cough syrup 😮
Oh no! How are you feeling now?
With covid: started with a fever, cold sweats, awful coughing.. after testing positive 10 days later.. it’s worse. Uncontrollable cough, chest and throat soreness, I could barely talk. It’s too much. I’m not sure what I should be taking.. there’s also labored breathing, no fever since the first week.. I didn’t know you had to clean your area as you improve or you’d just keep getting yourself sick? Is that true?
I’m so sorry
Body aches, chills, fatigue, runny nose. First day of symptoms, hopefully it doesn't get a lot worse.
I test postive AGAIN yesterday. This is my 5th time having Covid. Definitely not the worst of the 5 times, thankfully. I'm just baffled why I keep getting. I have been vaccinated and the first boosters. But I will not get any more vaccines. Started with sneezing Wednesday, then body aches and major head congestion Thursday day...low grade fever that night. Doctors office Friday and boom....positive Covid test. All in all, this one is not nearly as bad but the previous 4 times have caused me to have health issues, even hospitalizations for Dysautonomia/POTS. I hate this virus!!!!
Gosh I’m so sorry- some people are more prone to getting infected. Hope you get better soon!
@@DrJenCaudle thank you! My pulmonary rehab RT thinks I may be a vaccine non-responder. Trying to get titers done and anything else I can. I have long Covid which turned into Dysautonomia/POTS. It’s been hell since Aug 2021. But even worse than hell since April 2023 after the first hospitalization with Dysautonomia.
I had had Covid 4 possibly 5x. I'm sick now.... I have Hashimoto's and HBP (take lowest dosage meds). I'm wondering if the reason i keep getting ill is due to my Hashimoto's ? if so, is there anything i can do besides taking supplements? Thanks
I was just Covid positive on New Year’s Eve. My symptoms started with watery eyes runny nose and out of the ordinary joint pain on December 30 thought it was just seasonal allergies took OTC allergy medication. Woke the morning of the 31st with temperature 100.1 and I could not smell anything and then I knew it must be Covid, so I took the test, and of course I was positive. I had extremely high fevers ( 104.3 ) the whole day of the 31st and I started plaxlovid on that day. This is my fourth time having Covid and only the second time losing taste and smell. On my last three Covid cases it started with sore throat and headache. I do not normally get headaches so to me that’s a sign of Covid but this time I did not get a headache at all. It is probably because I was treating the fevers with Tylenol and Aleve. Feeling much better today have been a afebrile all day with no fever reducing medication. this is my third time using Plaxlovid, for me, it really helps. I have not had any rebound Covid cases from using it in the past. Hopefully I will not this time as well.
So so glad you got diagnosed and you got Paxlovid! Yay! And you’re doing great- hang in there and hope you get better real soon!
The pills do help I just couldn’t stand the bitter taste
I have been very blessed to never get Covid because I don’t be exposed by lots of people and I used EXTRA precautions while going out to public crowded places 😷
Ma'am is jn.1 more dangerous than omicron or it has mild effects like omicron?
I got diagnosed three days ago with Covid I’m a pretty healthy woman, active and throat was hurting and burning my throat felt like it was closing up. Literally . My body - Everything hurt like unbelievably every joint went to the ER and they gave me three treatments of steroids. My throat seem to open up, and the swelling went down, and I could breathe much better, they sent me home after my throat and my breathing got back to normal and they said the shots would last about 4 to 5 days. I’m having some pretty painful strong abdominal pain which I didn’t have the first time I got Covid. In June It started out with runny nose and sore throat and then I got a high fever and then nausea then the pain was out of this world the abdominal pain is just different it hurts. I don’t know what to do for it. Hot packs have been hot packs helping a tiny bit.and ibuprofen
Gosh I’m sorry to hear about your symptoms. You may want to call your doctor to see if you qualify for an antiviral like paxlovid or some other medications to help your symptoms
I just recently got this variant I had no clue until a family member did a covjd test, I scrambled to take one myself it came out positive a faint line but, was there. I’m in the mend so makes sense for it to be faint though I genuinely am just in shock, I also accidentally exposed my coworkers to it so I made a call to my work to inform them asap before my results were done as well afterwords. They now are enacting our Portocall and I’m not working for awhile until I’m deemed safe to return meaning I’m cleared from covid. It started with my body temperature dropping me during a concert at a festival and from there once home seemed like a typical cold, I could breath not normal but, where as I had it before it was a a major struggle to breathe when I got covid so it just never crossed my mind. I do want to note that the stomach seems more upset during this time both at the beginning and when I’m nearing the end of the infection.
I have totally different symptoms... Im from pakistan..
I have severe severe headache two days ago. Later on it felt like i have lost taste, but then i took my anti allergc medicine. I feel cold i feel kind of swelling and inflammation in nose, and have sore throat as well. Feeling something in my throat like flu symptoms but not runny nose. Its blocked. Feeling congestion little difficulty in breathing.. no cougj
Thank You, Dr. Apparently on my day 3, home test came back positive on Wednesday. Started with sore throat, followed by chills, fatigue and headache. Then appeared mild fever, and headache became worse, nasal congestion. By the end of day 2 , my headache, mild fever and cough went away, but I started experiencing hip pain. Now on second half of day 3, and on top of the other symptoms I’ve had two diarrheas. Still body aches, and loss of taste and smell .Hopefully I will feel better by day 4.
was around someone for about 1h on christmas who turned out to have it, immediately the next day I noticed the off-taste in my own throat mouth. Took my vitamins and got rest, but sadly, it progressed. After about 3 days I had suppressed appetite, some chills, a little head ache, and some mild fever symptoms. Just entering day 5 now, it feels like I had a good solid 'hot sleep' last night and feel a lot more clear headed today, hopefully I'm over the hill.
Oh no I’m sorry to hear!
Im not sure what I have.. I took a covid home test, it was negative. But this cough! It’s coming from deep inside.. soul deep.. it’s absolutely terrible.. I’m using my son’s albuterol because I feel like it’s aggravating childhood asthma. And the body aches😮😩🥴 from the waist down. Taking Tylenol every 4 hrs or so.. I have the chills and my body temp is running a little low
I’m so sorry you’re sick. Have you seen your doctor- would definitely be a good idea!
OMG that stupid cough is aggravating. I recommend children's Mucinex just the cough version Target carries it. For me it was more effective than adult max Mucinex. I took the children Mucinex cough and almost instantly globs and globs of mucus started coming up with terrible cough. The mucus went from green to clear in about a week but I been coughing it up for about 2 weeks. Now it's a dry cough and inconsistent also but cold air or smoke will trigger a cough and my torso is really sore from all the coughing
It maybe RSV and flu if not COVID because they're all kinda similar.
Bio-Weapon
Just got over it
Started very slow sore throat the kept coughing at night mainly couldn’t sleep well at all I remember coughing sometimes like an 1hr straight 7 days on the couch not much energy
Never lost taste or smell never had a bad fever never had any trouble breathing
Just some low energy on and off watery eyes / tons of post nasal drip and a shit Ton of coughing and hardly any sleep because of the coughing
Oh no how are you feeling now
💯 except a little dry cough here and there
It’s been two weeks today since it started
I got diagnosed with COVID Sunday getting better. I had fever like 101 with coughing and runny nose and congestion
I think i have covid; throat pain, loss of energy, loss of appetite. Next to that I have weird sensations to my nervous system; I can’t fully explain it, but it’s like something I have had never had before. It’s scaring me.
Not sure what variant it is but I currently have a slight chill, tiredness, nasal drip/runny nose, congestion, headache
Oh no! Hang in there
How are you now?
@@winwinner4851 So, I did a telehealth to get a better understanding what this new variant is and whatever is going around now is targeting more so the sinus, head, and throat. Not so much the chest like when the first COVID wave reeked havoc on us.
As a rule of thumb now, from the start of the symptoms there is a 5-7 day window for the ability to spread.
I was prescribed some prednisone to take for the next 6 days and fluticasone nasal spray.
The part that had me anxious and worried was the fact that I COULD NOT sleep for 2 days and the headache was unbearable. Not even tylenol or ibuprofen helped.
That has subsided though.
As far as the sleeping goes, i take some full spectrum cbd which helps some.
Takeaways... Stay hydrated if you do get it. If no appetite, drink some broth, but definitely stay hydrated. The dry mouth and nasal drip isn't anything I've experienced before.
I went to sleep feeling fine ,started running a 101 fever and woke up freezing. Slept for 15 hours couldn’t stay awake. Body aches, headache, back hurting. Diarrhea. 3rd day now and I feel better no fever.
Thank you Dr. Jen! I had covid a month ago ( 3rd time since 2020) ,this last time was like a really bad head and chest cold . Stuffy head , nose, chest congestion, headache , bad sore throat, and about a week of laryngitis..took a few weeks to fully recover back to everything normal again ...have a great weekend dear 😊🙏💝
started with a slight sore throat on tue night , wed i was feeling tired and not great ,thurs awful tested neg,friday really sick headache,nasal congestion,tired,cough ,fever amd chills ,sat was better symptoms milder and i had more energy , but tested positive, sun was ruff again add nausea to the list .Im hoping im past the worse part .I had bronchits 3 weeks ago ,my husband and son both sick on xmas day and my mother thats 81 with dementia was in the hospital with the flu .It just been awful .Do I count from the day my symptoms started or do I count from my postitive test ?
I’m so sorry you’re sick- and through the holidays too which is a bummer. Just Google “cdc isolation covid” and the cdc calculator for isolation will come up and it will tell you!!
My mother and I both tested positive for covid 1 day ago we knew to take the test because we both Completely lost our sense of Smell and then taste we had been sick for a handful of days with Flu like symptoms along with A cough and Headache .This is the 1st time either of us have had covid.
I don‘t get how loss of sense of smell/taste is supposed to be so Covid specific. I always lost my sense of smell/taste whenever I caught a cold! Not one exception! I had Covid very early 2020 and I had several symptoms that I would see as more specific than loss of smell/taste. The extremely dry cough coming from nowhere in an instant for example. Or the unusually high fever I had as well as a racing heartbeat while I just lay down (sitting to laying down) and shortness of breath without really moving. Ok, I get it, the symptoms changed anyway with the new variants but I always found it strange to say that loss of smell/taste was so covid specific. It was always one of the first symptoms for me to know that I contracted a cold.
I have Covid just now. Tested positive 36 hours ago. Symptoms are:
Runny nose and blocked nose
Headache
Temperature
I’ve been in bed all day today and now starting to feel better. I’ve been taking paracetamol to bring the temperature down. I’ve not taken any in 10 hours now and the temperature has not returned so I’m hoping I’m on my way to recovery. I’m not vaccinated (not because I don’t want to but because they say I’m not old enough).
Oh no how are you feeling?
@@DrJenCaudle thanks for asking. It’s all over now. It just took me 36 hours in bed and that’s it. Went downhill really quickly but recovered really quickly too. Thankfully the virus cleared and didn’t leave anything behind 🙏
Im soooooo worried😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢 m feeling a lil difficulty in breathing my sinuses are blocked
Day 3 of covid. tested negative until today. Feels like the flu, body aches, head ache, now blocked sinus and seriously sore throat. No energy, tho i did manage to do some car maintenance yesterday changing an engine air filter and cabin filter. Now i feel worse tho so glad i did that yesterday.
Hang in there- how are you feeling now?
My fiancé 39 M with history of SJS/TENS with a positive test on 2/10 had fever, URI symptoms, vertigo, chills, severe back pain, full body aches and flu malaise. He had vomiting and diarrhea. He later had 3 seizures possibly due to dehydration and hypoglycemia. For me 42 F, acute onset of dizziness, then severe chills, fatigue, then headache, congestion, sore throat and fever for days, bad full body muscle aches and back aches.
What tests are needed if you are infected with JN.1 COVID ?
Just a home COVID test will work
None, if you’re sick stay home.. same as it’s always been.
omfg give it a rest it's over you killed trust in science.
No 😢
@@DrJenCaudle You're on the wrong side of history.
I am indian have some. Different symptoms too much coughs this is too much seriously same as my father have and also thier office persons.
Oh ok
For three weeks stuffy nose sniffling..tried Benadryl, Zyrtec, DayQuil nothing helped after i thought i was dealing with allergic attack because i kept sneezing…negative test then a week later stuffy nose snifffling sneezing chills body aches test is positive 6 days later tested negative after getting positive for pcr
I hope this doctor takes 10 boosters. We dont want her to get sick or anything.
I’ve only been having GI symptoms. No respiratory issues. My main problem is the diarrhea, it’s horrible. Chills, lack of energy, gas and intestine cramps. I had nausea on the first day (Thursday) but no vomiting.
Ok pls hang in there and get better soon
Highly recommend some prune juice if you can get it down. Drink plenty of fluids no sodas or alcohol where I messed up thinking I was good. No drink coconut water. I could only drink water and soup broth but also the hot broth sparked a fever. The prune juice helped break up that painful gas.
Today I woke up with severe body aches, headache, runny nose and now fever starting ugh
I just tested positive. The chills, body aches and the worst sore throat ae terrible. Temp is 102. Today is day 2.
@@halvorsa how are you feeling now? My flu like symptoms are pretty much done. The body aches and fatigue is kicking my butt still.
@@ThePatriceProject Hi. I feel great but I am still testing positive. I am actually going to get some things done today so that's a good sign. the virus moved through my body quickly...ended with stomach issues but today I feel back to normal. Keep resting and treat yourself well.
@@ThePatriceProject Also lost taste and smell.
@@ThePatriceProject All in all I'm feeling almost normal again. It moved quickly.
lost majority of taste, lost voice from excessive cough, nose and head congestion, really tired all the time and difficulty breathing. Feel like I have lost some lung capacity from this.
Oh no I’m so sorry
My symptoms are extreme runny nose, post nasal drip so bad that when I cough I throw up the liquid that dripped from my nose, 360 degree headache and terrible sinus pressure. Also eye pain and swollen eyes, body and joint pain especially in the lower back, consistent nausea, shallow breath, chest tightness but more so in the back?
My whole body feels like it’s in shambles
Currently have covid, i tested + on Friday the 26th, woke up feeling like i had weights on my chest… i could breathe fine but chest felt heavy. CXR was clear and o2 sat was good but I put off going to the dr for about 4 days after dealing with dry cough and headache. Finally went and got put on azithromycin which within hrs of taking loosened up my chest and started producing ugly mucus. Currently just feel minor body aches and constant URI nasal drainage and have also lost my taste and smell.
Its been 7 days and im about ready to start feeling better 🙏🏼 i hope.
My kid came down with what i thought was a stomach bug, high fever, throwing up, headache, and eventually diarrhea. No cough or runny nose. She’s back to normal (on the 4th day) I caught her stomach bug and took a Covid test, which I felt was silly since I didn’t have a cough or runny nose, and it came back positive, so far my symptoms have been extreme headache and body aches, low grade fever and chills, and threw up in the morning, besides that I don’t feel flu like symptoms…It feels more like a stomach bug
I have it right now and those are my symptoms. Exactly nothing big.
Oh wow!
Fake RUclips doctor at it again, it’s time to stop ✋🤣
I have covid right now. It started 11 days ago with a bad headache and sinus pressure. Then I had a scratchy throat for a few days and really bad congestion. I lost my sense of smell for 4 days and partial taste. I could taste my coffee but not garlic hummus. Some things still taste off and my sense of smell is still off abd things don't smell right. The congestion is better now but its still there with sinus pressure and now I'm feeling really fatigued all the time. I'm hoping the fatigue goes away soon!
The whole covid stuff has been very quiet lately 🤔
I've got small vessel lesions after covid in September, 10-12 of them 0,2-0,25 cm in size, im still experiencing headache, ear ringing, brain fog, memory issues, & im young male 33 yrs old
Only mild symptoms. Runny nose, headache, a little fever.
Oh please…..
Why do you say that?
Tested positive on this variant and all i can say is yes, these symptoms are true, its more contagious than deadly
Update: you also get a weird taste in your mouth
There's no test kit that can identify this variant.
I was working at the Dallas VA Hospital when covid first broke out and it was mandatory for us to get the shots. So I got them, then a few months down the road I had a runny nose and a slight cough, so my supervisor made me go to employee health and I tested positive, so I was sent home for 5 days, all I did was Grease my throat and chest with Vicks Vapor Rub and in a few days I was fine! I'm just curious if they just automatically call the Flu, COVID??? I seem to nevva hear anyone say that they just have the FLU anymore? Thank you for your videos, I really appreciate you ❤!!!
Thanks so much for watching!
@@DrJenCaudle 😊😊😊!
Does 7 tests saying negative forsure mean yiu dont have it
Not if they are taken roughly at the same time
Injections helping, People?
Yes they are!
Are you seeing sore throat as popular symptoms? I haven't tested for Covid but my throat hurts. It feels like glass cut it and hurts to breathe. I also have small red spots in my mouth (throat area) that I think are petechiae. When I lay my head down I can hear liquid in my ear and my right ear feels clogged. The throat issue is the MOST uncomfortable though. I can barely swallow! I hope it isn't Covid but these symptoms are so strange. It feels like an allergy, almost. A very intense allergy. I thought I was having an allergic reaction so I spent the week cleaning everything - and the "allergy" persisted. Lol.
My symptoms are extreme fatigue cough. Exteme loss of appetite but sense of smell and taste are fine.aching joints and pain in previously healed broken bones. My 92 year old mother had almost identical symptoms but worse due to her age. Other people here mentioned loss of appetite and st least one other mentioned pain in old fracture. I am just listening to my body. Fasting and being lazy.
My period recently started when I started having symptoms of cramp (which could be period cramps) runny nose coughs headaches and fever im 25 year female we haven’t went to the hospital to check but I’d wanted to share how I’m feeling I also have bad taste in my mouth but my parents said it could be due to cause of fever last night while getting herbal tea I got so dizzy I fell to the ground idk why but I remember my heart racing that time there’s also weakness and I’m trying my best to eat it’s just been a bit difficult
Runny nose and cough, same, hope u get better xx
I had something that was making cough up blood 🤧 through my chest. Felt like a truck hit me and lost taste and smell for the first time in my entire life crazy shit
Just to mention, I live in a country where Paxlovid is prescribed only to 60 plus years old with comorbidities, my 80 years old dad recovered earlier than me with it and had more strength. It's heavy on the stomach though.
I'm relatively healthy & current with my vaccinations. This is my third time getting it and it's been the worst. I also tested positive for strep throat. I think it's Day 9 for being sick overall. I started with a scratchy (not sore) throat and sinus congestion. But on Day 5 I had a fever, an actual sore throat, in addition to my sinus infection.
So I don't know if it works like this, but I'm calling that my Day 0 for COVID-19. Now I'm on Day 4. I started Paxlovid on Day 2. Since then, congestion has spread to the chest, I started having pink eye on both eyes and twice have woken up with eyes sealed shut.
The nostrils and throat feel very raw from the coughing and blowing my nose. OTC Dayquil is helping me bare it along with just resting. My sense of taste and smell are altered but not completely lost. Also, thank goodness for tissues with lotion.
I was given Paxlovid because I do have a higher BMI than 25 and my fever didn't begin until "Day 7"so I think my provider agreed with when I said it didn't feel like COVID-19 until Day 5, so resetting the count, I'm on Day 4, within the 5 days of having COVID-19 symptoms.
One other thing - I have tinnitus and it's extra loud currently.
we got it . the worst nose and chest pain .
Wait if you have JN1 will you be positive for corona virus? since its a different variant? we might need a whole different test kit
Coronavirus is Coronavirus. They can't test for variants.
Anybody pin’s and needles
