Tested positive this past Friday using an at home rapid Antigen test. I started off with sore throat, headache and sinus pressure. I also lost most of my taste and smell which stinks! However, I don't have a fever or chills.

Last couple days I have noticed my chest feels tighter and it feels slightly harder to breathe. I do have intermittent asthma, so taking my Albuterol inhaler does seem to help. I don't want to panic and go to the ER just yet and I have a doctor's appointment (telephone) tomorrow.

Has anybody else had some breathing issues with COVID? What home remedies worked for you?

No respitory issues for me when I got it, but I did lose my taste and smell and had bad headaches and mild fever.

Ivermectin (from a pharmacy) cleared up my symptoms more and more with every dose. By the 3rd or 4th day of dosing all my symptoms went away except the smell/taste loss.

Otherwise some supplements - nigella sativa, quercetin, melatonin, vitamin d3, zinc, vitamin C can help, but you're unlikely to find any quality, correctly-dosed brands in nearby retail stores.

My only symptoms were mild ‘ Covid Fog’. Feeling a bit ‘spacey & out of it in the middle of my 10 day.
