I’ve just finally contracted it for the first time. I’m vaxxed and multiple-times-boosted, so it’s not that bad…

But it’s still pretty fucking miserable. Ugh. The paxlovid seems to be helping some, but in return it’s giving me the most horrendous taste in my mouth. Like a battery fucked a lemon in there.

What worked for you when you caught it, lemmings?

    I had it pretty easy and before there was a vaccine. I had large joint pain(knees especially), light body aches(more muscle soreness), some fatigue, and it was slightly harder to breathe. I had never had a cold or flu before, so it was very foreign to me.

    I did bed rest, Motrin, and the thing that helped the most to provide comfort was Epsom salt baths. I soaked in the tub like 3-4 times a day for the 3 days I was symptomatic and it helped me feel so much better.
