IAG Posted December 24, 2021 Report Share Posted December 24, 2021 So my BF just tested positive for COVID after being in NJ/NY since Friday. He was sick in SD (both of us) but both tested negative there..I think that’s just a bad cold but I might test again since no better. Doc gave me antibiotics and prednisone yesterday, but doubt that helps. . He felt better, flew out there and got sick again. Fok me. I have been vaccinated (he wasn’t) so hope it’s not too bad. He’s supposed to come back Tuesday..fok. At least the rental has three bedrooms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ERBtheGREAT Posted December 24, 2021 Report Share Posted December 24, 2021 My fiancee and I just had to take a test to go to her aunt's for Christmas Eve dinner tonight. She drove around for 1.5 hours and bought the test, both negative. I think everyone should have taken a test if we had to, she said she's going to get everyone all fired up later lol.

I’m more worried about him bringing the real covid back and getting sick….even if just like bad cold..we both tested negative before he left.

Are you taking them? Those steroids should start kicking in pretty fast. He didn't do a covid test, just took your word on the earlier test that was neg?

If you got a positive one, would you isolate? Get on a plane? I guess will see how sick he is. Sucks he flew to Jersey for Christmas and can’t go to dinner and see his 10,000 cousins, aunts and uncles that he rarely sees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chances are 20-30% of that family gathering has it too, IMO all this crazy testing is ridiculous. thousands of people wasting their precious time standing out in the cold for hours - all for tests it might take days to get the results. As far as the plane goes - he's forced to mask, and we all know masks work great, so it's no concern...sorta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeman Posted December 24, 2021 Report Share Posted December 24, 2021 My best guess is you both had it the whole time, those early tests were false negatives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I started them. and yes didn’t test,,,Because I had no fever also…but bf didn’t either and doesn’t now..but doc didn’t test mostly because I had one a week ago. Will the steroid still work on a viral condition? I don’t think the antibiotics will do much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to a hospice facility yesterday, so I sure hope that early test wasn’t wrong! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less it has to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, we see and hear all the stories of no tests in blue states, from what I've heard red states are swimming in them since there aren't as many neurotics.

The steroids wont do anything if you have a virus, they should make you feel better due to their anti inflammitory properties however. The antibiotics are just in case it's a bug. If you ordered a test may as well do it again, it'll be interesting if theis one is positive as that would mean they really dont work/not reliable.

Wouldn’t question what it was if he didn’t test positive…I’ll take mine…if negative he probably got it at McSorley’s…looks like a place one would get covid.
