Do I have Coronavirus?
Me | 3/13/20 | Dallasbiff

Posted on 03/12/2020 10:27:12 PM PDT by DallasBiff

Mild symptoms, a very weak runny nose, a slight fever, no headache, no cough, and very mild and isolated muscle aches.

I work as a shuttle driver at the DFW airport. My two possible exposures could be a group of 14 elderly Japanese tourists returning from Costa Rica two weeks ago and staying the night before their departure back to Japan or an American caucasian couple in their 60's and live in the DFW area and had a 40 day cruise in the South Pacific and stated about 1/3 of the passengers were Chinese and that was last friday.

Don’t ask for medical advice here

Go to a doc

Runny nose is NOT a sign of coronavirus. Sounds like you have a regular cold. But I’m not a doctor, nor do I play one on TV.

A patient they interviewed in Georgia said he had extreme joint pain (the Waffle House guy). There is another who felt really exhausted, but that was probably a side effect of low O2 which he had when he was admitted

You are 95% not likely to have it. Virtually all the cases start with the “unproductive cough” and slight fever. You likely have a cold. Sneezing and runny nose are not symptoms of this Corona virus. An unproductive cough is a cough without mucus coming up. Its often called a dry cough. This cough is persistent during the entire illness. But near the end, you will be coughing up mucus.

Do you have an urge to buy copious amounts of toilet paper and blame Trump for your runny nose?

Well no cough as of now, just a weak runny nose and a few sneezes.

That’s an informative video, but I wonder why he didn’t emphasize the importance of early diagnosis.

If you start craving blood and or brains, then start worrying. If not quit being a wuss and take Tylenol.

You should STAY HOME and take care of yourself as if you had the flu!!! Aspirin every 4 hours, vitamin C, vitamin D, and force fluids down just to be on the safe side do not go near anyone elderly!!

I have all the symptoms for having this virus except that I feel like I have a fever but don't. Went to the docs yesterday to make sure I wasn't contagious. He said I wasn't and prescribed 4 blood tests for Lyme. Waiting for the results now.

You may just be coming down with something common.

Due to your job, get yourself checked. Peace of mind is a great cure.

I think you should self isolate but call your doc to get the testing...you could have a simple rhinovirus or the flu....

No. No sniffles with coronavirus. Sounds like a rhinovirus, common cold.

And Dallas announced a health emergency 3 hours ago. I bet you have it. I hope not and I’ll be praying for you. I’m in Denton. It’s swarming us.
