Been infected? Or tested positive? The former is almost certain, but not the latter. Wait another month.
this should be how the "no" option is worded, anyhow. dmr87 - can you actually change that?
Not yet. I'm paranoid that I'm carrying it but I'm a bit of a hypochondriac. A few days ago I started to have a dry cough and I'm wheezing a bit when I breathe in, but I have a history with asthma. I want to self-quarantine but I also know when I come back to work they'll need a note, so I'm keeping an eye on my temperature and the second I hit 100.1 I'm calling my doctor. Right now my temperature is around 99.3 so it's within standard range, but I'm checking it about 3 times a day.

nasal blockage is no symptom associated with COVID-19 fwiw.
Runny nose -> cold
headaches and sore feeling throughout the body -> flu
the typical symptoms for COVID-19 are mainly dry cough and fevers.
started to get a fever/muscle aches/slight cough last night into today and i'm pretty sure i have something. maybe a cold or flu or worse? but since i haven't knowingly come in contact with a person who travelled overseas and since i'm under 40, i'll pretty much have to ride this out at home since they won't test me right now. working at a very busy grocery store and taking public transit to work every day, i'm not surprised if i did catch it from somewhere, but i can't say for sure.
i think there's tons of similar cases out there right now and this is about to get real bad, real fast.
i think i'll ultimately be fine, though having asthma does give me some trepidation, but i'm way more worried about my 90-year-old grandfather who i live with. he'll be staying with other family while i self-isolate myself. shit sucks
