In late March, I came down with a really bad cough that knocked me down really hard over a weekend. I stayed isolated in bed and pretty much slept that whole time. Cough lasted about a week, but I don’t think I’ve ever been that sick. I should get antibody tested, but at the time they were only accepting patients with fever and shortness of breath, which I didn’t have.

Was sick around mid-March when I went to Australia on holiday with my family. I had a rash on my back then a week later I got a sore throat, chills and a wet cough. I coughed so much that I coughed up some blood in the middle of the night. Woke up in a bed drenched in sweat but I felt fine afterwards except for the cough (which was easing off) and hoarseness. It only lasted an evening so I continued on with my holiday. Everybody in my family caught a similar bug shortly afterwards and my sister tested positive for COVID 19 antibodies as well so it was probably the coronavirus.

In February, yeah.

Sick as in self-inflicted from vodka then yes.

Apart from that I only ever get a cold twice a year. Trust me my diet is shit and live like shit and I'm really healthy on the outside. I'm plagued by suicidal thoughts at times, but you should see my hair.

Late December to early January, I was pretty sick, I had the chills and was burning up badly, along with a bad headache, went to doctor an they said it was the flu an to rest, this was before the big Covid stuff came around. I haven’t been sick since then.

In February I got hit with some nasty shit that had C19 symptoms- fever, cough, my throat felt like hot razors being run through it and I was ridiculously tired. Lasted about a day. Worse I’ve felt since the flu the whole family had back in ‘07 (coming out of both ends, felt like death warmed over).
I often wonder if it was C19

It's a good chance honestly. The most prominent symptoms are fever, body aches, fatigue, headache. Dry cough actually isn't one of the most common symptoms, even though the media is pushing that as the symptom to watch out for.

last time I was sick was with the covid the week after christmas.

Reminds me of my Christmas. Was feeling under the weather Christmas day in the morning, decided to take a walk for 20-30 min and see if I could sweat it out. Drink some water during the walk. Started getting worse throughout the walk, labored breathing / upper respiratory, slight soar throat, feverish. Didn’t want to go to my sis’s place, I just wanted to rest in bed but for some reason I went. Everybody thought I was feeling good enough to go but I was just holding up strong and really felt terrible. Got worse and worse and by the time the Lakers Clippers game came on I was feeling miserable as fuck. Could only lay down and rest. Once I ate some food felt a little better, but before that, fuck, that was one of the most uncomfortable times being sick and still trying to function. Why do those sick memories always stand out so vividly? It’s like we recall every detail better when there is struggle involved

Last time I was sick, was March 28th, and before that, about a week prior; I had relapsed with the same virus

I came back from vacation in orlando in the last week of february. Few days later i had a weird fatigue. I'd come home from work, lay down and sleep for hours. Also had sore throat.
Wife, who traveled with me, had severe flu symptons. My mom came to see us when we arrived and got sick too.
Could've been covid.
