I just tested positive for covid, after avoiding it for nearly 5 years. I have bronchiectasis and Mac.

Anyway, I quickly got very sick two days ago, on what was likely the first day of the illness and I got paxlovid the same day, although late in the day and I was only able to take the evening dose.

I started nebulizing 3 times a day yesterday and my cough is better today than it was yesterday. Congested sinuses and a very very sore throat are primary symptoms today and I’m taking Tylenol for that. I also started doing nasal rinses this morning and will try to do those at least twice a day.

I’m wondering if I’m doing everything I can for this and if anyone has suggestions and/or comments about what to watch out for in the next few days/week. I just read the chance of rebound is higher for people who have used paxlovid and have an underlying medical condition (which I think would include bronchiectasis and Mac) and wonder if anyone has experienced that?

Thanks for your comments,
