If your symptoms worsen and you are concerned seek reassessment.Given this virus was only identified less than three months ago anyone whos talking about secondary fibrosis or any other long term effects is full of shit.
I have probable covid-19 but dont meet travel/contact requirements for testing. I am a 28 year old female with no comorbidities, however my lymphocytes are consistently low and neutrophils high in various bloodwork throughout the years. Not sure why.Severe cough for about a week, fever for past five days, influenza A and B negative, virus panel also negative. Chest X-ray shows no pneumonia, but Ive read that covid-19 pneumonia can only be seen on a CT scan. Coughing up frothy sputum almost constantly, pain when breathing, and getting lightheaded with light activity around the house.Naturally I am quarantined with my family however:-should I be concerned about developing pneumonia?-when they talk about the possibility of convos-19 patients developing long-term or permanent fibrosis, what exactly does this mean? What symptoms would one have, and how would one get tested in the first place?Thanks!
