My daughter is in her early 30’s and a nurse. Was diagnosed with Covid about 12 days ago. Had complete loss of taste and smell along with flu like symptoms. All symptoms except the loss of taste and smell have subsided over the last 2 days. This evening all of a sudden this severe head pressure came on. She described it as if she had very high blood pressure, but her blood pressure was normal. It lasted for about 15 minutes and went away and now her taste and smell are returning, her nose is running like a faucet, but she feels fine. She said the whole illness was like nothing she had ever experienced before. Felt like something chemically induced. Also she has not taken the jab. Anyone else have a similar experience?

Here is my recent experience:
-Felt crappy on Sunday.
-Felt a little worse, but not horrible on Monday. Symptoms mainly just tired and achy at night. Felt decent during the days.
-Checked my temp and highest was 99 although on night in the middle of the night I'm pretty sure it spiked, but I didn't get up to check it.
-By Tuesday, I started to improve. Wednesday felt even better, but decided to cancel a work trip for Thursday (yesterday).
-On Thursday, I felt pretty much back to normal, but I to buy some in-home test kits on a whim.
-Sure enough, I test positive yesterday. Wifey tested negative, but then felt worse in the milddle of the night.
-Wifey tested positive today. I feel 100%.
-I've been supplementing with Quercetin, Vit D, Vit C, Zinc and Berberine for the past two weeks because my kids had colds, ear infections, etc.
-Never lost my taste, not even a little. Had almost no respiratory issues.
-Long story short, mine was similar to any time I've had a below average case of the flu.
The test kit is called Binax Now and it’s made by Abbott Labs.
You can get them at Walmart, CVS, Rite Aid, etc etc
testing for the common cold.
What I had was the flu. Covid, at least in my case, is the flu.
