UPDATE!
Thanks to all for thoughts/prayers! I'm pleased to report we are on the mend! Mrs. is feeling much better today, I was 90% yesterday, and 95+% today. Both of us have an lingering cough, mine is like 20% of what it was yesterday, so, much better!
All in all we feel like we weathered this very well.
After our quarantine period is up, I'll pull us off the poll.

well, something hit me Thanksgiving evening. Was assuming just a normal "crud"... aches & pains... what could become a deep chest cough. Started treating with Mucinex & Cloricidin...along with the normal D/C/Zinc/Quercetin. This afternoon, things have started tasting off. I still have a sense of taste, there's just something not right about it. So, started with the FLCCC early treatment protocol. Glad I went ahead and ordered the IVM from ADC. Will continue the IVM for 4 more days and see what happens. Not marking myself on the poll, because I am not "officially "diagnosed". Will probably need to order more...
While I feel bad for everyone who is sick (and do pray for them), I hate to point out the obvious: that the number "208" (or whatever) is meaningless without knowing the size of the "population". That would be all the members (whatever that is) + their families.
(I admit I only rarely check in on this thread--so maybe that has already been addressed.)

Confirmed results today.
DW began feeling a slight fever last Tuesday. She pushed through until Friday because she is a small business owner also short of staff, especially on the holidays. She was starting to question her symptoms Wednesday and I went and got the Bimax test and we were both negative.
DW has been bedridden since getting home Friday night. Last night and went and got another test and it was positive but she thought it looked strange and wasn’t accurate. So today we went to a drive thru and it was positive.
One of her employees has been sick as long as DW and also got a positive test today.
As of right now, we all seem to be over the hump. And quarantining which is so strange.

Update on my son and family. The only one who was never tested was my granddaughter, but the rest had similar symptoms so it was assumed they all had it. My DIL only had the loss of taste and smell. She tested negative and went back to work as they were short of staff. Son had it the worst with loss of taste/smell, endless coughing, diarrhea and fever for days. In fact, DIL said that DS even hallucinated several nights! But DS is now almost back to normal and working to get caught up on things. Granddaughter had the congestion and crud/boogers coming out in endless amounts, and grandson followed his dad's symptoms. Both DGS and DGD are still coughing and having crud come out, but DGS is doing better than DGD.
Two twin step grand daughters and five kids (small fry) went to the zoo. Should not have done that. Two adults and 15 month old kid came down with it. Daddy is a surgeon and everybody except 15 month old vaccinated. The 15 month was acting oddly, tested positive. I suggestive his sense of smell and taste went and that did it. Kids are a lot smarter than we think, he missed the smell and taste
His mommy got pretty sick but not bad enough to go to the hospital. She is quarantined in the house with the 15 month old.
The other twin would not have known she had it until her sister got sick. She tests positive but has very little effects. Son did not get it.

My husband is on day 10 of his quarantine but is not feeling well enough or strong enough to go back to work--- he's out of breath and exhausted just walking from one room into the other (I feel that way too). So he's trying to get another week off work by using his short term disability ins.... we'll see how that works!
But considering all that, we're both on the mend... it's just going to take some time. This crud hit us hard even after taking all the "preventatives" and the monoclonal antibody treatment... it could have easily been much worse if we hadn't done any of that. I'm on day 6 of my illness but I now feel like there's a light at the end of the tunnel! Oh, we both lost our sense of smell just in the last 2 days.

Usually it goes like this:
1) use up all PTO
2) use up short term dis
3) go on long term dis

My oldest son now has it. Tested positive on Monday but felt bad on Sat. He was with the entire family on Thanksgiving and everyone is vaccinated including him. He seemed better today and even took a 2 mile walk and taught four math classes on Zoom. Sure hope he keeps going in the right direction cause so many I heard feel worse after feeling better. Also praying that the rest of us don't get it.

I'm changing my number back to zero--- My DH is over it and although he still has a nasty, lingering cough (no pneumonia!)-- he is now starting to heal. The same with me-- I'm still in quarantine until Sat. but I'm starting to slowly get better. The main issue with me is the extreme weakness and tiredness. All I have to do is walk up the stairs and do a few "chores" and I'm exhausted! DH is also dealing with the tiredness, but we will deal with it.

Prayers Jaybird for your dear parents.
New numbers in my house. DW and I tested positive last week and are on the HCQ regimen and had the antibody infusion. Had a big recovery jump within 24 hours of the antibodies but still achy muscles and easily winded.
Stepdaughter and grandson who live with us tested positive today. I assume stepson and stepdaughters boyfriend will be positive before the week is out.
4 out 6 in household

Well I got something - was fine all day Monday, woke up at 3AM with a splitting headache, nausea, cold sweats and could not get warm and horrible body pains. All day on 12/7, very cold, every single muscle/joint hurt in my body, headache and nausea went away. Slept like the dead last night. This morning feel very fatigued, muddle-headed, can feel my heart beating in my chest, my oxygen level read at 98%. Have bouts of a dry cough, but have had this reoccur since I got sick back last March.
You sure got something. Praying for you. Start some of the protocol before it gets worse.

Almost 2 full weeks since my last post on this thread. I started feeling a bit better after about 5 days. Each day a little more... Last night was the first time in 2 weeks not sleeping elevated or taking anything. Finally feels like it's all "breaking up". I do notice that some days are harder than others in terms of energy. Some days I have more "brain fog" than others. Again - never officially diagnosed, so not in the poll counts. Just wanted to report that it took me about 2 weeks to feel like I've gotten through it.

I just tested positive for Covid. Fully vac. But damn I feel like I was ran over by a garbage truck. I hope everyone else who has it has a full recovery. FyI I can still taste and smell fine. My Doc I saw said that what other doctors are saying isnt 100 percent correct. You can keep your smell and taste and still have covid.
