[quote=Anonymous]My 2nd year college kid felt off on Aug 15. Weird symptoms 16th. 2 rapid home tests were negative. 17th went to primary doc wearing an n95 because he felt soreness in kidney area. Doc said probably not covid. 18th DH took him to ER and waited for hours masked outside. ER doc did a PCR, EKG (mild chest pain), blood work, ultra sound of kidneys and he said “for fun” let’s look at everything. All normal. Said probably covid. By the time DS came home from ER he felt fine. 19th positive PCR. We were all already masking and isolating at home, so we counted from onset of symptoms (15th). He repeated PCR on the 25th and it was negative. DH did PCR with him also negative. I did two rapid tests prior to move in day (yesterday 27th day 12). We masked and moved him in. He’s not masking, and his school is no longer requiring. They also lifted the guest policy ban. Glad he got it and it was mild enough. Hopefully immunity plus fully vaxxed and boosted will be protective. Freshman first semester seemed like a month long of crud in his dorm. If anyone cares to know symptoms, started with mild chest pain without chronic cough, tingling in legs for a day, and kidney soreness. All resolved within 24 hours.[/quote]
