Covishield/AstraZeneca both shots. First day of symptoms was a week ago. Tested positive next day. It took a good 3 days for fever to come below 100. Body feels broken even today. Luckily no other symptoms or severe turn. Bad body ache and headache during first 24-36 hours. Then just fever stuck around for 3 days even after 3 Crocins daily.

Speaking on phone was tiring.

My doctor had doubts so on 5th day she prescribed repeat CRP test (had dropped from 6+ to 5+) and also chest ct scan (1/25).

Not sure which variant but didn’t lose smell etc.

I still feel hay fever sometimes or maybe it’s just anxiety and fear. It’ll take a lot from me to be able to step out again.

For everyone else I knew in last 2-3 months here this was merely a formality of some fever. I sometimes still think why it took so long for me.

Having no family made it tough and scary. Had informed closest friends that if I had to be hospitalised they’d at least check on me and maybe doctors and hospitals will get a sense that there are people asking about this patient (yeah, it’s that kind of country).

Wouldn’t want to experience this shit again. Those 4-5 days when I was waiting for fever to come down were of fear and hopelessness.
