Now got covid probably due to been on pred ,no extra booster

Only symptoms so far is hacking cough,but not all the time

Should I bee worried due to low immune symptom to fight it

Now taking 25 a day .

Doctor would not listen when I said it was too early to reduce.

After only 3 weeks on that dose and only just beginning to feel better, not write

Yet πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™‚οΈ Try to suggest 2.2 .

Doc say THE GUID LINE SAYS πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™‚οΈ

It’s no way to be πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«

How are you placed

A sad Ronzy 😩

πŸ€πŸ€πŸ€πŸ‘to you all

Hard luck Ronzy - but most people catch Covid even though they are not on pred!!

Get well soon - I assume you have had all your jabs?

Have you tested yourself.

See this for info to get antiviral drugs -

β€˜Take a test if you get symptoms (valid until 31 March 2022 – to be updated).

If you have any of the main symptoms of COVID-19, you should take the PCR test as soon as possible, even if your symptoms are mild.

You can find PCR home test kit instructions for people eligible for COVID-19 treatments on GOV.UK. You can take a rapid lateral flow test while you are waiting for your PCR test result or if you do not have a PCR test.

You must report your COVID-19 rapid lateral flow test result on GOV.UK. This is so the NHS can contact you about treatment if you have tested positive for COVID-19.

When registering your PCR test and reporting a lateral flow test result, it is important to enter your NHS number, contact details and postcode correctly so the NHS can contact you about treatment.

What happens if you test positive

If either test shows that you have COVID-19, the NHS will contact you about treatments that may be available to you and make any necessary arrangements.

If you are not contacted within 24 hours of your positive test result, you should contact your GP or 111 who can make an urgent referral.
