covid

We all had the crud last week too. It caused vastly different symptoms in all of us. I don’t know what it was.

100% allergies

Before COVID we weren't going around trying to know the scientific name for viruses, we were just sick! "A cold", "The flu". As said before, the treatment is about the same for all and viruses don't impact every individual the same. Call your doc if you are worried about symptoms/longevity of feeling ill.

Could be walking pneumonia. Which is usually bacterial, but could be viral.

Why do you need the name of the virus?

Sometimes you just aren't going to know. There are hundreds of human viruses, with 3-4 new ones being discovered each year.

+1 it’s not allergies. Allergies don’t cause fevers.

My husband is getting over this virus - he’s on day 8 - not Covid. Same symptoms you describe. It’s been allergies+flu

Probably should go to a doctor??

DS8 - started with a sore throat and fever, which were the only symptoms he had for several days. On day 6, he developed additional symptoms of nasal congestion, cough, and lethargy (on top of the original sore throat and fever). The fever finally broke on day 8, nasal congestion cleared up a few days after that, cough is still hanging on 2 weeks later. Strep, flu, and covid tests all negative. What the heck is this? Is anyone else seeing this in your house?
