Thank you for answering my post. The cough is dry and chest dies hurt some. I am a person with anxiety so that doesn't help. I sit and keep taking my oxygen level which has been around 93. Sometimes it goes up to 95. I considered my covid to be mild. I only had a fever for one day. No sore throat but very fatigued for the first 4 or 5 days. I went to the ER on the 5th day with my stomach not feeling right. I'm also in a flare with gastritis. They did numerous test to ease my mind. One being a ct scan with contrast. All was good. Only thing chest xray showed mild pneumonia in the lower lobes which was what was causing my funny stomach feeling. They gave me an antibiotic for 5 days. So I'm about a month out and still have the cough. No wheezing or rattling sound. Just a dry cough that's feels like a tickle in my throat. Did you have a check xray and if so get a recheck on it?

Yes, I did get a recheck on the first round of COVID in 2022 as I had double pneumonia. Even though lungs were clear a few days later after being on antibiotic, I was still very winded and my chest hurt. It may be worth your while to get your chest x-rayed again. Blessings & Prayers.
