Was planning on going in tomorrow, but the guidance about isolation is confusing. It says 5 days, if symptoms improved…that’s rather relative! Yes, my wicked sore throat and symptoms are improved, but not great. Mostly don’t want to risk exposing anyone. So, I’m going to take an antigen test and see. Unfortunately, the mayor, is a fabulous boss, but not in favor of remote work. So, don’t I’m not going to push it.
Thank you for being you and so wonderful! 🤗

Ever since my transplant in 2009, I find that it takes me longer to heal from a scrape, bruise, or even a common cold than it did before my transplant. I wonder if 5 days is cutting it too short for you, if that is the return to work guidance at your place of employment. I don't know a solution, I'm just thinking out loud.
I’m glad your symptoms are improving and hope they continue to get better. I just heard that monoclonal antibody treatment may not provide much help for people with compromised immune systems. Also, it has been 24 days since I had any COVID symptoms but I tested positive last Thursday! My transplant doctor said this can happen with transplant patients. Has anyone else heard this?
Best wishes, Athenalee!

@athenalee Perhaps your boss would be open to hearing about what you could accomplish with more remote/less on-site work, for say, a month or six weeks? In these times our employers need to look at all the angles!
Glad you are feeling better, day by day!
