My second experience started the same way as the first time, which was about 8 months ago. Extreme chills in the middle of the night. Chills that make it difficult to walk or control motor skills. It took 5 blankets and about 3 hours to get back to a comfortable temperature.
Before I get into all of the details...no, I did not test the first time or the second time. Yes, I suppose it could be the flu but, both of these were much different than any other flu I've ever experienced before. Both times, I contracted "it" from my wife who lost her sense of taste both times.
Tuesday 3am - Extreme chills Wednesday morning - A "kill me now" headache that lasted all day. So bad was it that I moaned all day. Not a single pain killer helped. Slept all day and took 3 Ivermectin pills (12mg) throughout the day. Extreme fatigue. Thursday Morning - felt a LOT better but the headache was on a low boil. Could get up and walk the dogs. Friday 5am - Extreme headache woke me up. Took Tylenol Friday morning about 10am - I'm about 90-95% back to normal. If I had to go back to work, I could.
I got this flu/Covid from my wife. She still doesn't have a sense of taste. This is what leads me to believe I have/had Covid. She didn't take any Ivermectin until the 3rd day. I started taking it right away.
I just ran into my neighbor who is a nurse while walking the dogs. I warned her that I was sick but almost recovered. She told me not to get tested. Haha.
Sucks. But that's what the flu is. You've likely built up antibodies agains other strains. So the first few hits of covid are likely to be unpleasant. It's a flu strain. Not much else to it.
If you're older your body has no natural immunity and will hit harder. I've been sick twice and tested negative, so who knows. My sense of smell is toast, gone for the most part besides pungent odors. I can taste though. It's weird. Could be natural aging, but going from a level 10 sense of smell to a 2 or 3 is fucked up.
Heal up. Either the tests are shit or it's generally not that severe in most people. Still don't know of any hospitalizations or deaths personally. (not friends of friends scenarios).

Just thought I'd share.
