[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Wow, this blew up.

First, I called it mild because that’s how it’s classified when you have all the symptoms except shortness of breath and low pulse ox. Look it up. I put “mild” in quotes because I feel like absolute garbage and have been sleeping probably 16 hours a day. I just woke up and I usually feel ok in the morning before the fever returns and it goes downhill.

Second, I don’t have kids. My family consists of my husband and me. I am not “lying” about our activities. We are working from home. This virus is very, very easy to contract. One of us clearly made a mistake at some point— touched eye at grocery store, didn’t wash every germ off at the gas pump, whatever.

For those of your who accused me of lying, or exaggerating, or trying to scare people, or not being as sick as YOU were when you had some other illness, I’m sorry you are so filled with rage and distrust.[/quote]

Thank you for coming back OP and for being reasonable. I had the moderate case (my doctor called it moderate, I don't know what made it so, possibly my pulse ox was 95% and I would have had to go to the hospital if it was 94%). It sounds like a lot of people on here are (a) making it political, (b) in denial about how easily this transmits, (c) just argumentative assholes.

I hope you feel better soon. It lasted pretty much 14 days before I finally felt better and two weeks later I am finally at the point where I'm not out of breath going up and down stairs (but I still can't make it around our slightly hilly block). This is tough, get LOTS of rest and take your vitamins!![/quote]
