COVID test is positive. Worried!

Posted by SusanEllen66 @SusanEllen66, Oct 18, 2023

my body has so much going on and now I’m sick with COVID. My cousin, a physician suggested that I get the drug Paxlovid asap
Has anyone else taken this medication?

I’ve been fighting bronchitis for months now and am just finishing up prednisone and an antibiotic.

I’m 73, almost 74 with several autoimmune diseases so I’m concerned.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Autoimmune Diseases Support Group.

Do you not have a primary physician and you informally spoke to your cousin who is a doctor? I understand you are now taking Paxlovid but I encourage people to not rely or wait on a response from people here when especially time may be of the essence.

I took the COVID test at night, and when I saw it positive, I let my cousin know. He is available to me 24/7. It’s nice to have an Oncologist in the family.
