Bit of covid advice. If you think you might have covid, or have tested positive, the first thing to get is an oximeter. They're about £20 and easily available online.
They measure oxygen in your blood. If it's above 95%, you're good. If a bit below, you should call 111 or your GP. If significantly below, you should go to hospital.
It's a good fail-safe. But it also offers an objective assessment of your condition during a period in which you're liable to freak yourself out on the basis of your subjective assessments. They're tremendously reassuring.
My other piece of advice is that, for some reason I will never be able to understand, watching endless episodes of Come Dine With Me was the only form of entertainment we could withstand.
So try that. It does admittedly make you despise the human race, but that is a small price to pay for entertainment which your brain is able to understand even at its most befuddled.
This from the NHS is a good guide to the oximeter readings. TO those asking, I don't really have a recommendation for which one - ours was nothing special. 
I would go on Amazon and pick the one with the highest ratings. In no other situation am I likely to recommend buying from Amazon, but in this case you are looking to get it delivered as soon as possible and you obvs can't leave the house.
