Day 3 of #Omicron symptoms was my worst so far, with fatigue & a very heavy head, alongside sneezing. My tight chest, feeling of reduced lung capacity and tickly lung sensation had subsided slightly, as did the coughing, that had become painful on Day 2 #Oximeter down to 96%...
...so I slept a lot on Day 3.
But now it's 1am on Day 4 and I feel full of life. Fatigue gone. No more headache. Slight wheeze still, Oximeter 96%; no appetite, but sense of smell and taste are fine.
Wonder whether the worst is over, as I'm double AZ-jabbed plus Pfizer-boosted?

I can't find evidence of people relapsing into worsening symptoms post-Day 3, but my lungs are my weakness... Am I good right now because I slept so much over the last 3 days?
Tomorrow I begin my participation in the @UniofOxford #Molnupiravir (antiviral) trial.

Last week my 7 year old daughter was rushed to hospital with ‘Acute exacerbation of asthma’. Except it wasn’t.
It was #covid and she had a false negative tests.
I’m a qualified nurse - and I have been managing her asthma for years, I thought I knew what to look out for.

She had contact with a covid positive person
Dec 21st & developed a bit of a cough.
On the evening of 22nd Dec my husband heard her cough & went in to check on her. I called out for him to check her sats.
I only asked he check her sats because of a tweet that I’d seen.

It told me get prepared for #OMICRON wave.
1. Thermometer
2. Pulse oximeter
3. Watch 2 min video telling me when to be worried
(I already had thermometer, BP machine, nebuliser even a stethoscope - but I didn’t have a sats machine, so ordered one for my armoury).
