That's not bad. Mine was - day one: a little tired and things taste funny.
Day two through 10: slept 23 hours a day and ate food in the 1 hour I was awake.
I have never felt so ill in my entire life as when I had covid. I basically had all of the symptoms except a headache which I suppose was some small comfort.
But it went on for like 3 weeks. One day before my first symptoms I'd gone on a 10 mile bike ride, 3 days after symptoms started I could literally not climb the stairs without a break.
But the worst bit for me was the brain fog. At one point I thought I was really cold but I couldn't really work out why I was cold and of course it turned out that the reason I was cold is because I was outside. But it took me at least 2 minutes of blankly staring around to work that out.
