How many of you?
I lost my sense of smell and taste last Sunday (9 days ago). My wife followed suit the next day. As of right now I am sitting in a treestand. All is good. We have abou 20% of our smell and taste back. No fever.
How many other from here has caught this nasty virus?

Day 14. No taste or smell. Cough finally getting better and can breathe. Had muscle aches and stuffy head until 3 days ago. Never had a fever. Can’t go back to work until 72 hours with no symptoms. Wife tested negative multiple times.

Did you have any other symptoms? If so, how bad was it?

Home from a contact this weekend. No symptoms but work got word and I am out for two weeks. Guess I'll trap till I get symptoms or my two weeks are up. Glad I planned for this financially and have vacation time saved. Hopefully it won't happen again or I will be in a tighter spot then.


Life sure is tough when you don't learn from the mistakes of others.

If your work told you to stay home, aren't you eligible for unemployment benefits? Instead of wasting vacation?

Had it from the last couple of days of August for about 10 days into September.
Bad fatigue, slight headache, change of taste, everything tasted terrible, fitful sleep with minor confusion (hard to explain) for the first seven days, finished up the last few days with a manageable cough. No fever or nausea.
100% back to normal about two and a half weeks from first symptoms.

Everyone needs to have a blood-oxygen monitor; less than $20 on Amazon.
If your oxygen level drops below 90% get yourself into the hospital, mine got down to 92%, normal is in the mid 90's.
You will feel okay into the 80's as your body has a way to compensate, but when you get down into the 70's you will feel that "heavy weight on your chest" and other symptoms. By that time your medical care team will have to play catch-up and it's much harder to battle than if you got in there earlier.

No taste or smell for the last 4 weeks. Had a headache for 6 days or so and that was about
It.

I wouldn’t buy a new truck if I couldn’t enjoy the new smell.

No other symptoms. Just a slight cough a few times a day.

I lost my sense of smell the first of October. I could taste salt, and sweet, but no flavor of any food. I have a little back, but not all. Much fatigue, and a splitting headache for the first four days, then it all got better. I had a rough night, with what Waggler described as minor confusion, but never had a temp. The day before I lost my smell, I was in a van with six other people for four hours going to a football game. They all had to quarantine because of my positive test. No one ever had a symptom, no one in my house ever had a symptom.

I read that people with low Vit D are more likely to catch Rona and they have worse symptoms. Its not like it will cause a problem to take Vit D
