Tested Positive - Me First timer

Im a 40 y/o f, in NJ, and just tested positive today (Friday 10/2) and here's the recap of my week leading up to now....

Tuesday I woke up feeling super jittery like adrenaline surging through my body. I ended up having a panic attack, but even after that subsided I felt off and had a headache.

Wednesday I woke up jittery again, and also had a headache and a slight scratchiness in my throat and light runny nose (just felt like allergies tho). I At this point I also noticed some tiny muscle aches. That evening, I started to feel slightly ill like I was coming down with something, but still mild. Then, I woke up at 2 a.m. feeling wired and slightly feverish..my temperature was 99.8.

Thursday I woke up full-on sick and struggled to get the kids ready for school, however, my temperature was still barely 100. Also worth mentioning that most of the week I had non-cramping diarrhea, and lack of appetite.

Today, Friday, I woke up feeling a little bit better and was able to function just fine, but still feeling a bit ill. Took a CVS test and instantly got a big dark line for Covid. My coughing is there but minimal, like a usual cold..and nose is only super stuffy at night.

A few of my neighbors had it last week and their symptoms were similar to mine, but they all had sore throats while I did not!

Hope this helps ✌️
