A few days before we were going to take our trip back home to see family, both my oldest kids woke up w/ either body aches or a sore throat and both had headaches. My husband came home early that same day from work which he NEVER does. He immediately fell very ill, running fever, throwing up, list goes on. He tested positive 2 days later. Since we travel full time & live in a 300sq ft RV, I knew it was inevitable that we would get sick as well (we have 3 children). I originally got our oldest tested through Walgreens drive thru but was not aware we had to preform the test ourselves. It came back negative which I didn’t trust so I had our son and myself re tested by a nurse and both just came back positive this AM. Our 11 yr old daughter is struggling, I’m almost positive she is sick with it as well. Our baby is doing pretty well which I’m BEYOND thankful for. I’m 3.5 months post op now and all I can think about is staying hydrated at this point. I’ve managed to do well but my symptoms just started not long ago and I can only hope that I don’t end up as sick as my husband. Throwing up and not being able to hardly drink anything will get us in some SERIOUS trouble VERY quickly unlike the average person. I’m not sure if it’s the virus but my stomach has been struggling to like anything I’m eating or drinking past few days. I had to completely stop drinking protein shakes cause my stomach was fighting it but the plus side is that I’m able to go to the bathroom easier (if you know, you know). Any food I’m eating my stomach is making such a fuss about. I can no longer taste or smell so I’m barely eating anything anyway plus I’m losing any appetite I did have. I’m just basically drinking water all day at this point which is the best thing I can do for my body during this time. Thanks for letting me share, I hope everyone is having a better week than me lol.
