I was never officially diagnosed because my Dr (over the phone) told me to stay home unless I felt like medical attention was necessary. But had all the symptoms. Diminished taste and smell, persistent cough and feeling like I wasn't getting enough oxygen, fever, and a headache that wouldn't go away. This lasted for a little over a month and I ate mucinex like candy, drank pedialyte every day, and kept switching from acetaminophen and ibuprofen to combat the fever. I gotta admit though there was 3 days that I seriously thought about going to the ER because I was lightheaded from not getting enough oxygen. Now I still have some residual congestion and shortness of breath, because I think the virus did some damage to my lungs. Funny thing is my girlfriend and I both tried to self quarantine (she was sick for 6 weeks) but most friends and family members still came around even after being warned, and none of them have showed any symptoms.
