I really appreciate yours and the other comments. I had a phone appt w a Dr yesterday and was given an Rx for cough medicine w codeine, along with prednisone, since I’m asthmatic and am displaying bronchitis. He didn’t weigh in on it being RSV, but I’m pretty sure that’s what it is. Day 7 here, feeling a bit better…finally. I think I’m out of the dark.

I had the flu shot along with the new updated Covid booster.

I’m sick. On day 6 now. Started off with a drippy nose and warm head. By day 3 I had to cough up so much mucus making my muscles sore. On day 4 the constant sleep began, punctuated by painfully clearing my lungs. Day 5 even worse. Today is day 6 and I honestly don’t know if I have the strength to cough. My whole body aches from coughing. I wonder if it’s RSV. Seeing Dr on Tuesday. Hopefully I’ll get a script for antibiotics since I still have a while to go. Wear your mask ppl. This sucks. I don’t want you to get it.
