Thanks

I’ll add another scary part is my family. There’s 4 of us and I’m the only one so far that’s shown symptoms. Hope it stays that way.
Yea, thats my biggest concern of catching it, would hate to pass it to my wife or kid. Are you isolated from them in the house?

It’s crazy. I’ve never had this symptom before with anything else. I never had a temp worth noting btw.

For me this was the worse thing by far. I had it mid to late Jan and it wasn't really a thing. By day 4 I was genuinely worried I had lost it forever.

It's hard to describe how weird the feeling is. You used horseradish but I think you will agree you could have a blind taste test and eat frozen dog shit and you seriously wouldn't know it wasn't ben and jerrys nutty chocolate one.

I remember being cold and shivering but not a temp to be concerned with either.

Nope. We were around each other hugging and kissing for days before I showed symptoms. I got home last Tuesday evening and symptoms didn’t show up until Thursday night/Friday morning. So we wait but it’s been awhile for them so I’m confident they’re fine.

Btw let me state I haven’t been around them the same way but I’m not locked in my room. Hopefully that answers your question.

Oh I told my wife, “This would be amazing if you wanted to lose weight. You wouldn’t care if you were eating healthy bc it taste the same as chocolate cake.” Lol

Are you ready to admit that Altuve was wearing a buzzer or do you need more punishment for it to sink in?

i've heard that after Day 7 is when it takes a turn to try and kill you.

12-24 hrs into Day 8 and it's either the start of recovery or time to get to the ER.

be vigilant, fren.

Hoping for the best! I did have one day (Monday) where I felt good again and Tuesday was not fun at all.

we should all remember that Matrix @Matrix and people like him aren't going to show up in the Confirmed Case numbers...

Oh I’d be willing to bet that MILLIONS of Americans have had this. My symptoms are probably more moderate than most. The flu drops me when I get it so I’m not surprised this stuff affected me somewhat.

If you had to bang one of the property brothers, which one would it be?
Drew or Jonathon?

Thanks for the thread.

I had light flu symptoms last week. I hid from my family for two days in the basement and it turned out to just be a regular bacterial flu. The stress of how long I would have to be away from my kid was the worst part. Do you have any indication of how long you stay contagious after the flu symptoms pass?

Hey man sorry to hear you got sick. Was there a point when u knew u had it? As opposed to another illness.

I'm not trying to cast doubt in any way I'm curious as if it has a feature that will make you remember it in years to come.

I don't want to be insensitive. I'm always told I don't "read the room".

But this might be a good time for ATM since you cant taste or smell.

Sunday was the day my throat and tongue had that burning sensation. That was something I’d never experienced before so it was probably that day but on Monday I found out about my colleagues positive tests and I was 100% positive. My wife thought I was crazy until I told her about them. Lol

Nah I’m not sure. I still may be. I’ve read so many conflicting reports tbh. We’ll quarantine till at least middle of next week if not the end of the week. Be safe bud.

Dang I hope you make a good recovery dude. And I hope your family are safe too. If there's anything any of us can do that you need just let someone know. We are a strong community here.

I missed this! The one on the right. Isn’t he the “handy” one? I’d end up slapping the other one while he tried to argue the best way to make me a sammich.
