My doc prescribed a z-pack and some steroids with the intent on reducing the risk of pneumonia or other pulmonary infection.
I still have the cough but it doesn’t hurt anymore. Day 10 and banged in sick for tomorrow. I’m not going back coughing like this.

I had COVID early January, I would not have known if my husband didn’t have it first and tested for it. I decided to test once he got the positive results, and he only tested because he was supposed to fly a contract trip. My Covid experience was a very runny nose which is typically what I get with any cold, and maybe a little fatigue followed by no smell. My sense of smell was absolutely gone for at least 2 weeks. I smelled ammonia (I believe a central nervous system response) the day I lost it, also very weird, but I knew that’s what was happening in real time. Everything has returned to normal and sense of smell back after a few weeks. I guess I’m lucky, he was bed ridden for days and still has a cough. This thing doesn’t care, it just bites certain people harder than others.

Finally back to 100%. Going back to work in a week or so. Have to admit I'm a little apprehensive about going out there and being exposed again, potentially to the new variants that can elude the antibodies generated by the first infection. Vaccines aren't available for transportation workers in my state as of yet.
