Covid-19 Positive - Day One

Wednesday, July 29th, 2020, I awoke with a headache, runny nose, and lots of ear and sinus pressure.  I took some sinus medication and got ready for work.  I arrived at work and went through the door screening and my temperature was taken (97.1) and got on with my day.  Throughout the day I started feeling some fatigue.  After work, I went home, ate some dinner, and laid in bed and watched some television.  After a couple of hours, I took a shower and turned in early thinking that some sleep would relieve some of my symptoms. I woke up several hours later with an oral temperature of 101.5 degrees, chills, and a dry cough.

At 3:58am I contacted my boss and advised her of my symptoms and was told I needed to go get tested for Covid-19.  I made an appointment at 12:30pm for myself and my husband as more symptoms started to appear.  When we arrived at the clinic for our testing we were taken to separate room and our stats were taken.  Mine were as follows:
  • Temperature:  100.0
  • Pulse:  88 BPM
  • Blood Pressure:  173/104
  • O2 Stats:  92%
Came home after my nasal swab test, took a shower, and spent the rest of the day in and out of consciousness and feeling worse, feeling as if I would pass out when I stood to go to the bathroom.  Every 6 hours the Tylenol would wear off and the fever and chills would come back.
