(9,874 posts)My sons came down to NC where I live for Christmas for about 5 days. My youngest, 32, felt awful when he got here and 2 days after they left my wife came down with it and then myself about 5-7 days later. A terrible, dry, almost contant cough. Mine was pretty bad and my wife's was worse to the point that I demanded she go to her doctor, who could not figure out what it was. It lasted almost 2 weeks and then suddenly was gone. No fever, no sore throat, no body aches, just a horrible cough and a nose that ran like it was a faucet. Otherwise did not really feel "sick".
I also noticed a shortness of breath when out walking the dog but didn't think much of it and that has since gone away.
I wish the antibody test was available so we could see if it was Covid or not.
