Covid experience and anxiety

[michigan07]

Hi everyone, I tested positive for Covid on Monday of this week having exhibited symptoms on Sunday but I was not testing positive until the following day. My wife and her sisters went on a vacation to Florida and brought it up with back with them.  I had a sore throat Sunday and Monday and that was about it. I did try paxlovid on Monday night and had to DC Tuesday am due to a horrible, horrible stomach ache and nausea. I also found out that it was contraindicated for many medications including one I was taking (doctor didn’t mention and had to contact about what to do) I was wondering a couple things. Is this usually how it goes for those who have it mild or does it progress further at this point and does anyone here deal with any anxiety and did this make your covid experience worse for you? It has not helped mine at all lol. Thank you for any and all answers. As a side note I am vaccinated and boosted x1 as it we want until recently they made a second booster available for my age group.

I guess that is good to hear since it didn’t start bad and I have no symptoms right now. It’s that fear of symptoms coming on in two days or something that makes me anxious. I very much appreciate your response and kindness.

Well, you had symptoms on Sunday, right? It's Thursday now. I can't imagine it will get suddenly worse. :)

Remember that for the vast majority of people, covid causes no real problems other than feeling lousy for a few days. Hang in there. :)
