On Friday someone came into my workplace showing major symptoms, she was coughing none stop and said how lightheaded she felt, but our manager made her too afraid to go home as she needed her to help with meetings.

I've been developing a nasty ass cough and during my night out to celebrate my birthday I got a really bad fever and had to go home early.

I'm hoping I'm just overthinking this and it's just a random passing bug but a part of me is kinda shitting it, not for my sake but my family.

I think this is karma for my Corona posts.

I'll always remember you all, especially Elektro for his shit posts and MHK for being my brother in arms.

Gonna get some rest as it's late here and I'm finding it harder than usual to breathe so will try and stay still and sleep, I'll wake up to your posts of glee to my impending death x

Hearing such stories buffles me, regardless of corona.
Why did that college go to work that day? Why did she even risk getting her coworkers infected by whatever she has?
Nobody deserves to be put into that risk.

Edit: your symptoms sound like corona, get yourself tested and isolated.

Bro, relax, I don't think you got the CoVid-19.

Read about psychosomatic symptoms and if you do have it, stay away from your parents if possible!

I did a nettipot once when I was super congested. I didn’t read the instructions and just used tap water. I either did it wrong or was too congested for it. The water just sat in my sinus instead of flowing out. Shortly thereafter I got a headache so decided to google nettipot headache and learned that people can get a bacteria that causes meningitis from using tap water with it.

Of course after reading that my neck started to stiffen up. It was just my brain being an asshole. Psychosomatic symptoms are definitely a thing.

Not to be that guy, but isn't the opposite true? Plus, I thought it was trendy nowadays to not masturbate? Literally, if you're dying from the Kung Flu, that's the last thing you should do.

Treat it well bro, you'll be fine. I view each virus as an attack on my body now, my temple. It's for me and my God and for what I hope to accomplish; not some foreign invader up to nothing but destruction. Fight every cold / flu anything really with your best effort, it's a fight

So envision wellness in its entirety. Do not stress, but be active in your efforts

-Drink plenty of water while you're awake close to 24 cups should be your goal
-Gargle with himalayan pink salt a few times a day. Even if you don't have a soar throat, it would help to give you extra minerals and can help break up phlegm and any mucus in your body
-Eat raw health foods if you can, or eat and drink a lot of vegetable soup. Lots of greens, add colored vegetables to it, many different vegetables. Eat as much as you can with each meal really eat/drink up
-Brush your teeth with unrefined coconut oil
-Don't give in to sugar during your return to health, have tea with stevia or monk fruit to stave off any sugar cravings. Buy tea and stevia. Tea will help you heal if you pick the medicinal and herbal ones
-Focus on oxygenating your body. Water, light walks if you can manage that, breathing exercises or meditation, maybe some yoga poses to get the lymphatic system going
-You should try to move a decent bit when you are up to it. Body was meant to move. Even when sick, I believe. Your systems have to be up and running and even if it's only a little bit, just stand up, do some arm circles, some light twists, a few dynamic stretches carefully, just get the life force the blood moving some so you can deliver nutrients from the many liquids and healthy foods you should try to be eating to keep your strength and immunity up
-Buy Umka Care medicine, all natural and will help ease cough
-Zinc and honey lozenges preferably with no dyes, sugar, buy a quality brand with health in mind, not one that uses sub standard or standard ingredients
-Healthy fats and high quality proteins in your diet
-Lots of vitamin C so maybe a smoothie with acai unsweetened puree

-Sleep a little bit more elevated than normal if you want to alleviate some discomfort. I think it's advisable if you have an upper respiratory tract infection. Sleep well in a dark room, no tv on, phones and electronics out of the room or turned off and several feet away from you

It's the basics man, putting up a good fight is just about effort during the discomfort and before you know it, you'll be feeling better and glad that you decided to be active in your recovery instead of just "waiting it out" in a miserable state. If you're feeling miserable, you need to sleep or rest and then execute a plan to get back to health / fight off the virus

Stay up bro, our bodies are incredibly powerful and resilient when you align with the truth

I had regular flu for almost two weeks, felt so bad I wanted to die. I'm still coughing all the time. The other day in line at the McDonald's cash register I had to cough a few times. The looks on the other people's faces.... I wanted to dissapear, man. This shit really sucks.

Oh and I now saw the first empty toilet paper, noodles and disinfecting soap aisles at a few supermarkets. Fuck people who go out and buy 25 packs of toilet paper, and fuck the stores who don't impose a maximum quantity of sale per person.

Check your body temp for fever. You are looking for a combo of fever, cough, sore throat. Could be all, could be one, but the most serious cases seem to have a fever and cough.

Edit - Difficulty breathing and general fatigue too.

Thanks for all the lovely message guys (and the not so lovely ones, they made me chuckle)

I have woken up with an even worse fever than last night which sucks massive balls.

I'm coughing up enough mucus to fill up jars which is like really nice obviously.

Things that never got me out of breath like just putting shit in the washing machine and walking DOWN stairs are getting me breathless.

The UK say anyone showing the slightest symptoms should self isolate but I don't wanna piss off my work and suffer from severe anxiety so this whole situation makes me ten times more panicked than usual.

I'm doing a lot tips that you all have said (apart from masturbating) so thank you to the likes of Elektro Demon Elektro Demon and Cutty Flam Cutty Flam for the advice.

I'm too breathless to go gym like I usually do so am gonna stay at home and work on some more beats and maybe play some games.

I'll wait till tonight/tomorrow morning to see what I should do next.

But seriously, thank you all so much. You're great people, hope you all stay safe aswell as your loved ones during these times ❤️

You need to see a doc, brah. You're in denial about your symptons.

Edit - I should say, speak to a doctor or whoever it is you need to speak to. They need to know where potential cases are.

Having a harder time breathing is like the Nr. 1 sign of corona. Especially since it lacks a lot of other symptoms you usually get with the flu except for high fever. It could still be something else of course (definitly not an expert), but your symptoms are way too close. Self-isolate. If the breathing gets dangerous, go to a hospital.

Also fuck your manager.

I wish you speedy recovery than man. It's not just a flu, so really seek help as soon as possible, because there is a chance of developic chronic lung problems. And still I hope that you are going to be Covid free, that is something different.

Yesterday I was feeling a little short of breath so I started getting paranoid. Today I seem fine so I think I was psyching myself out.

Now I'm out having a quick lunch with my mom and wife and 10 minutes ago we got sat down next to a family with some kids. This little girl then coughed on us for like half a minute and the dumbass parents didn't do anything about it even after I gave the mom a look. Like fuck man this is how shit like this spreads. Stupid fucking people. Even if we didn't have this Coronavirus going on you should make your kid cover their damn mouth. Retards.

You should self isolate now. Goddamn people, can you not read? Doesn’t matter if you have Covid19 or not: DO NOT GO OUT unless you’re going to the hospital ER, in which case don’t take fucking public transit and make sure you notify whoever is taking you or your circumstances.

Some other bad viruses going around the UK atm.
My GF has been ill and coughing since Thursday. She says her chest is ok but it's been hurting her throat so she's been coughing loads. It really knocked her on her ass.
I've not caught it or shown any symptoms so far but were both self isolating for this week.

Even if it's not kungflu, you still don't want others to catch it and make them weak.

It boggles my mind.

You caught a nasty respiratory bug from a co worker that came to work sick.

Now you’re febrile and short of breath and you think it’s still a good idea to “watch it” and go about your daily life? In what world does it make sense to go back to work? Someone already tried that. That’s how you fucking got sick.

Jesus man. If you’re as short of breath as you think you are, you shouldn’t even be posting here. You should be on your way to the nearest ER in the back of an ambulance.

Still the flu season in general and around here since spring hit pollen count has shot way the hell up from what it's been all winter. So a lot of people will start having allergy and sinus issues just from spring growth. Considering the mild winter I expect shit to come out early also.

Do the cough test!
Hold your breath for 10 seconds. If you cough you could have flu or corona.
Also.
