Two weeks ago I thought I had the flu......after 3 days I was on the mend so I didn’t test for covid.
About the time I started feeling better my wife got sick.
After 4 days of fever we decided we better test her and sure enough she tested positive.
She hasn’t bounced back as quickly as I did. I contribute that to my exercising regularly and apparently in general covid hits females a little harder.
Neither of us has ever even considered getting a covid shot and that hasn’t changed.
Hopefully now we have natural immunity.
Also, her Dr prescribed her paxlovid but the taste side effect was so bad she quit taking it after one dose.
We are the opposite. It hit my husband a little harder than it did me. One thing I can say is that he has to sit at a desk all day long and work, while my work is keeping the house clean and orderly, and the yard, too. I’m outside nearly every day tending to something out there, and in the winter months that can be snow or ice or gathering kindling from the fallen branches, chopping wood into a manageable size. So every day I get some sort of work out in. We both walk for about 3 or so miles every day, which has been wonderful for both of us. We cherish that time together.
I hated Paxlovid and if I ever do get CoVid again, I won’t take it. It’s been almost a year since we had it. For us, it was very mild. I have had other viruses that have knocked me on my butt more so than CoVid did. I realize that’s not everyone’s experience.
