Asymptomatic

I find it amazing that some people have had the virus and had no symptoms.

Does anyone think they fall into that bracket ?

Oh doh... thinking about it though you wouldn’t know 😂

I have had severe shortness of breath but no other symptoms other than crazy chest pain.I think I had some night sweats a few weeks ago. I dont know if heart problems can cause such bad shortness of breath or whether I have the virus aswell.

Hi Moonflower. I think you should call 111 - those symptoms could be heart related. Best to get it checked just in case.

Yeah well I know it's my heart but I am pretty sure I have corona aswell. The ambulance came round the other day it was so bad but ecg and everything was ok. I am going to call the cardiologist secretary again tomorrow.

What is the chest pain like please?

We had a flu like bug go round the office in January. Several peopl were off for between 1 to 3 weeks. The symptoms remarkably similar to what's described for C-19. I didn't get it then. This shortly before C-19 hit the news. I do wonder if that was it? No one knows as no one was tested obviously.

heard many similar stories. i suspect this has been around in the UK for much longer than anyone will actually admit.

I have a feeling I may have had it, excruciatingly sore throat, like swallowing glass, headaches , dry hacking cough and debilitating fatigue at times, also the worse sinus problems. This was at the beginning of February After returning from northern Italy. Contacted 111 and filled in the online form to which a reply was sent back, saying to stay in and I would be contacted within 24 hours to be tested. That was on the 8th February and I’ve heard nothing since. However, my husband had a few symptoms, mainly the cough and fatigue and we are feeling ok now but it would be nice to know if we have had it and whether we now have antibodies.

I know what I mean, I felt rotten for a few days, high temperature, really sore throat but no cough, I also had diarrhea, which some say is a symptom and some say it’s not.

I’ve done some research on COVID 19 on cases in China. Many people had diarrhea and nausea/vomiting.

In Japan they have concluded that the virus could also be transmitted through feces and recommends that everyone drop their toilet seats after using. Of course, the Japanese have amazing toilets that do everything from singing, washing, drying and analyzing your output!

[Hidden in reply to not2worry]

I thought as much, I’ve never had a temperature spike like it in my life.

Didn’t know about the singing Japanese toilets thou... everyday’s a school day 🙂
