A guy writes his experience while in throes of the corona-virus at his home:

D1:
The day of fevers and exhaustion...Shivers and sweats were the story of the day. That and being utterly exhausted, with whole-body ache...No appetite at all... cough started in the afternoon, Not a bad cough, and not productive. But just there every now and again to remind me that my lungs were also not happy.

D2:
No energy. Horizontal is the position to be in...Sweats/shivers ongoing, but not as bad as yesterday. Cough more noticeable but not a big issue....Intermittent headache started. Whole body still aches, and feeling weak. Zero appetite.

D3:
Feeling worse. Headache and fatigue worse..Cough less frequent. Appetite improving but far from normal....another day of frequent naps & predominantly horizontal state.

D4:
Ongoing fatigue and reduced appetite...Cough very infrequent now. Headaches still present, but improving...Whole body still aches. Functionally pretty useless. Would quite like to feel better.

D5:
Still pretty tired....No headaches any more. Appetite up to 1/2 or 2/3 of normal..Still no desire to leave the bed/sofa, let alone the house, which is fortunate since I still have 2 days of self-isolation to go.

D6:
Feeling a little better...Or, thought I was, but then fell asleep on the sofa for an hour. So fatigue ongoing, and lacking energy...Still no desire to leave the house.
Hoping tomorrow will bring much more energy
That is as far as I have made it (so far).
