    Day 10 of being down with Covid and I am still in a brain fog with nausea and minor symptoms, but the loss of my smell and taste is the worst.  The GF is still feeling spacey as well with a lot of congestion.  This may be mild but it is lasting way to long for us compared to others.........

    Hi Ryan. It is strange how this affects people differently. I brought Covid home and infected my healthy (non smoker or drinker)26 YO Thai girlfriend who had 1 Sinovac & 1 AZ and she had exactly the same symptoms as you have described yourself and girlfriend are feeling, which lasted 7/8 days.

    Myself, a 54 YO (smoker and drinker)type 1 Diabetic of 37 years who recieved 2x UK AZ and a Phizer booster, suffered from a runny nose on one side for 3 days with no

    other symptoms.

    I hope you and the girlfriend are back to good health very soon.

    Patients who test positive for Covid-19 after using an antigen test kit no longer need to take a PCR test to confirm the result. Suphakit Sirilak from the Department of Medical Sciences says the requirement for a follow-up PCR test is expensive and time-consuming. In addition, the generally mild nature of the Omicron variant has removed the need for people who receive a positive ATK result to take a PCR test. The exception is people in high-risk groups who should still seek a PCR test and hospital treatment.

    My girlfriend had this problem over a week ago in Phetchaburi, tested positive via ATK and informed her company of the result. Company needed a PCR positive result to process her sick pay. Went to local hospital for the PCR but was told they were unable to perform the PCR as they were inundated with cases and could not perform one.

    After returning home and calling the hospital she managed to arrange one for 1900 B

    at the same hospital the next day

  3. Mods, forgive me if this is deemed as off topic.

     

    Just a bit of info for the members of AN.

    I am not sure how may of this brand of ATK are in circulation. After using three kits that

    were supplied by a nation wide food outlet that my girlfriend works for (after informing them she has been in contact with a positive case), none of the tests have came back positive. This may be due to a bad batch however.

    My ATK's from the UK and this one purchased from a pharmacy have both detected CovidIMG_3357.thumb.JPG.aedbb5952928ca4e88b41cc2ffd31ea1.JPG
