Well got a few bone aches on Monday nothing new to us I know 🤣 but worse then usual ,then by Tuesday night started to get a sore throat come Wednesday it was worse and felt cold so after work I took a test and yes positive. We t through the channels and sure enough NSH called me Thursday evening 25 hours after test but as I was not feeling that bad infact slightly better we decided to leave treatment . Friday had a slight cold and got on with things as normal same today slight headache but started to think maybe I don't have covid as symptoms are so mild ,just done another test and even stronger line then before 🤣 now maybe it's because I have had Delta and 5 jabs and I'm hoping this is it but anyone else have had a similar experience also and may not be related but I have a cloudy vision in one eye phoned the hospital but they didn't seem concerned apart from my blood pressure which was not bad 124/97 although they told me to double my lisinopril to 5 mg and report back Tuesday again anyone else had this

I haven't had COVId either, however, your eye situation has not been something I have seen reported in relation to either Covid or CLL, so I thought you might benefit from the following linked article:
I'm into my 5th day with Covid and don't have a problem with my eyes ... but the sore throat was WAY above anything I have ever experienced.
It was torturous trying to sip water the pain was unreal.
This morning I have just passed the halfway mark in taking my course of Paxlovid ...
( why in the name of god we have to wait until the symptoms get worse after testing positive for Covid-19 before we are prescribed this treatment here in Scotland beggers belief ... well unless it is a financial decision and not a medical one ... I wonder how long our health minister would wait before getting treated ... )
... this morning, I can take liquids with little pain ... now it's heavy Catarrh and lots of it, coughing is painful, but I 'feel' that maybe I've turned a corner.
I still don't have an appetite, but my stomach has started 'rumbling' after a diet of soup and soft bread, and best of all frozen fruit berries and yoghurt.
My son has the 'bone pain' symptom .. I hope that all will be well with you asap.
ygtgo
( You got to go Oww! ... except with that sore throat ... I couldn't even speak never mind Owwing! )
I have been so lucky ,as I said sore throat Tuesday evening Wednesday ,gargled salt water and gone Thursday morning where I had a few sweats but nothing really , Friday slight cold but we'll enough to respray the back end of my car which had bumper damage , took another test Saturday as I feel even better and the line was much stronger that worried me so phoned the covid ward who rang me back this morning (Sunday) and speaking to the doctor again it was decided as I'm not suffering it would not be worth me taking the covid treatments as in there opinion and I probably agree I don't need them and now day 5 they said if I was going to get ill I would have my now and that most people produce a stronger line in the test 5 days in then it quickly goes . Sorry to hear your suffering but glad you appear to be on the mend
If/when I get sick, I am going to exaggerate my symptoms if I have to, to get treatments. I like to think I am an honest person, but when governments pull stuff like this, I am going to lie to protect my immune compromised self. Can't swallow! Blinding headache! Trouble breathing! Terrible pain! Everything smells awful! Too weak to walk! Constant nausea!
I have not even really been that ill ,no blocked nose just a bit stuffy , sore throat one day with slight chills then just a bit off . I really think the decision not to treat me was the correct one I obviously didn't need it and remember taking these drugs can have adverse effects like all drugs . In the time I have been positive I worked first day not knowing, second I cleaned all the kitchen cupboards ,third day repaired my bumper on my car and last two days enjoyed the gorgeous weather went to the beach and had my first swim in the sea of the year . I'm expecting to return to work tomorrow overall I have been very lucky and I'm convinced it was the fact I only had my 5th had a few weeks ago that has helped me escape most symptoms
Hello.We’ve not had covid (yet 🥺), but I wish you a speedy recovery.
My daughter in law is just recovering and now my elder son has it ( we’ve not seen them for two and a half years ☹️) … we really thought we might be getting back to a bit of normality and we’re hoping to see family … but it seems covid has other ideas ! I hate being so far away!
We do have ( as long as they test negative!) our younger son and family coming next weekend…I’m very worried, but my husband, who has CLL has had enough ! It will also be the first time we’ve seen them throughout all of this..
I’m just praying that they don’t bring covid with them and treatment will be there should we need it!
