After 6 vacinations I now have covid again! Got it this time last year. Couldn't have come at a worse time just now. My 92 year old Mum was admitted to hospital with jaunice and a blockage in bile duct, unfortunately this was terminal pancreatic cancer. Now unable to visit her neither is my brother and sister in law as we all got within 2 days of each other,only my husband that doesn't have it. Thought as it being the 6th day I would have been negative today but no im still testing positive. It never rains but it pours! Thankfull her Grandchildren have been visiting. I feel so useless not being able to visit so.now crossing finger for tomorrow's test.Wish me look

I'm sorry to hear about your Mum, that really is upsetting and I can understand how you're feeling about it. I'm also sorry to hear you have covid and I agree, it really couldn't have come at a worse time! Good luck for the test tomorrow, I really hope it's negative and that you'll be able to visit your mum. x

Oh no! Absolutely typical isn't it, just when you needed to be fit and well!! At least she has the grandchildren to visit for now. I really hope you test negative soon and can then safely visit. Good luck. x

Oh I’m sorry you’ve caught covid again - so frustrating especially after all of those injections and just not what you want right now with your mum. Thank goodness for the grandkids.

Will cross my fingers that you test negative tomorrow and your life can get back to normal x

What a rotten time for this to happen to you but glad other family members can visit your Mum. Please be kind to yourself too as stress increases pain and generally does not help with your own wellbeing. You need to keep well and strong.

I personally don’t think jabs work at all. How many do you have to have for an effect. Just my opinion

Think it did work in a way because although Indidcfeel unwell itvwas more a bad cold and sorr throat

Oh that is terrible timing. You must be a bit stressed about it. Sorry to hear about your mum, hope you have a quick recovery and test negative today 🤞. I was unfortunate to test negative for 5 days and then test positive again with a rebound infection which is reasonably common apparently, so watch out for a reoccurrence of symptoms within the first 10 days after a negative result.

Sending all good wishes that you test negative very soon, and also that your covid recovery is good.

Love to you, your mum, and your family ❤

Truly frustrating for you. As you have had it before are your symptoms the same?

No the syptoms were slightly different, this time I had dulled taste and sore throat which I didn't get last time, but its still not as bad as others have it.

Yes I wore a mask at all times as recommend ,I cant use any other nasal spray as I'm on a steroid one. Besides when I saw boots had to withdraw their advertisement guaranting it stopped covid I didn't want to buy it because of fls advertising. Plus the nose isn't the only entry point for covid. So I presume people would have wear gloves ect too

sorry to hear that. I thought I was bad with three infections and am only getting on my feet after what feels like 5 months of being ill and sore.

I ve had 6 jabs as well and won’t be having anymore. If I can get the right travel insurance am gonna go to get some heat in Spain.

Hope you are better soon.

This is from the government site about how covid can be caughtWhen someone with a respiratory viral infection such as COVID-19 breathes, speaks, coughs or sneezes, they release small particles that contain the virus which causes the infection. These particles can be breathed in or can come into contact with the eyes, nose, or mouth. The particles can also land on surfaces and be passed from person to person via touch.

How frustrating! Hope you get a negative test soon and get to see your mum. Great the grandchildren could keep visiting though.

Not arguing just informing like you did to me about about the spray, I m glad you have never had covid.but I'd rather rely on the advice given than just nose spray that was wrongly advertisered in the first place and which I can't use anyway.but happy it works for you ,Maybe its because I'm immumosuppressed or you have a natural immunity that I got covid and you didn't and yes any virus or any germ can be transferred by touch its a proven fact. Why else do medical.people wear gloves. Thanks for alll the advice .
