I don’t think it’s Covid, haven’t done a test mind you, but anyone experienced this before 

I currently have the exact same symptoms! On antibiotics too.

Didn’t even think about Covid until the missus brought it up, done a test out of curiosity and it came back negative.

Must be going around
Are you bed bound?

I was googling the symptoms and quinsy keeps coming up which looks worrying 

I’ve managed to walk about the house, but I’m wrecked after!! Haven’t been getting much sleep past couple of nights either.

That's a symtom of the flu isn't it? Sore swallowing is a normal symptom?

Are most people still testing now? I probably would if I had fever symptoms but haven't bothered anytime I have had sniffles or a cold

Have it for the second time now, pretty much exactly one year since I last had it. 
Was more fever and blocked nose the past two days but now the cough is starting. Last time that was the worst part as it was sore after awhile and lasted a couple weeks

Took me the best part of 3 weeks to shake the after effects of it. Nothing major but was getting quite bad fatigue spells at 5/6pm every day over christmas.

I tested positive today.  Felt 90% fine but a slight sneeze now and again and a very slight dose of sniffles.  I feel fine and wouldn't know I had it unless testing really.  Only reason I tested is a few people I know had coughs and were complaining of feeling sh*t.

Was half thinking of getting my 2nd booster before today but since I have covid for the 2nd time not sure if its worth it considering the symptoms are so mild (so far). 

Probably will end up getting the booster next month I suppose just to be on the safe side.

My mother has caught it for the first time. Luckily these variants are fairly tame.
It would damage this forums' reputation
