So, I tested positive Thursday night (home test free sent to me). I suspect I had it for a maybe about 4-5 day (did not know of course). The reason I suspect was because I was exhausted and had bad headaches, I attributed it to high blood pressure and low b-12.
Anyhow Thursday I noticed my breathing was labored and so I took the test, and it came up positive right away. I have taken my temperature everyday (2 different thermometers) both have been normal. My breathing was quite bad yesterday although today it seems to be much better (using pulse ox 97).
Anyone have Covid with no temperature? I am overweight, with high blood pressure and asthma. So, I am concerned but I seem to be getting better.
If I was to guess, I think I am on day 6... Do you think I am through the worse of it? Or does it take a turn at this point?
I did have all three shots. Although the last shot was probably 6 months ago.

I had Covid in November 2020. Never had a temperature higher than 99. The night I got my booster shot I had a fever of 103. 🤷♀️

I am wondering if not having a fever means the case will be mild? Whenever I get the flu I end up with pneumonia so I am very nervous I will suddenly get worse. |

I had COVID in late January (double vaxxed and boosted). I never had a fever. I was exhausted, had a headache, and it was hard to breathe at times. I hope your case is mild.

Do remember how long it lasted? I am surprised how much better I can breathe today vs yesterday. Did that happen to you? I heard of people thinking they are getting better and then it gets worse. |

It was before vaccines and I work in healthcare. I was out of work for a solid 2 weeks because I had symptoms for that long. My main symptoms were headache, cough and exhaustion. Towards the end I had GI related symptoms. |

I didn’t have a temp when I had Covid in November 2021. I had symptoms for about 8 days. My symptoms ranged from moderate to mild. I never felt like my breathing was labored. I did get a pretty bad cough that still lingers at night and morning 6 months later.
How you start feeling better very soon!

I had Covid November 2020 so pre-vaccine. I am also very very succeptable to pneumonia. My main symptoms were headache, cough, and exhaustion. I managed to keep the pneumonia away with good hydration, sleeping prone on my stomach, and making sure I got up and walked around a frequently.
Hope you feel better soon.

Will follow your lead. Drank 3 sugarfree poweraid in the last 48 hours. I swear that helps! |

I had Covid in Nov. I ran a low grade temp for a few days. Mine were mainly sinus and congestion. I did lose my taste and smell. I never had problems with breathing. I would recommend you prone. Proning has shown to greatly help with breathing. Lots of fluids. Sit upright, and move move move. Deep breathing, in thru nose, out thru mouth, and rest.

Given your history I can’t help but think I’d at least check in with her/him/ her/his nurse. |

DH had Covid with no fever. The vax is supposed to make you have a milder case and get over it more quickly, and that was true for him.
Hope you are better quickly

I had Covid at the beginning of February. I didn’t have a fever that was detected by a thermometer but I was chilled/feverish a little at times.
I hope you are feeling better soon!

DH had covid in January. He had fever on a Saturday afternoon but it left after that. He tested positive with an at home test on Sunday afternoon.
He slept until Wednesday. Luckily those were his only symptoms.
He had been vaxed and boosted. However he is elderly with diabetes and hypertension.

dd and I both had Covid last March pre-vaccine and neither of us ever ran a temp. She had it first and had mild cold symptoms. It wasn't until she felt like her breathing was off that she considered covid and went to urgent care for a test. They gave her an inhaler which helped greatly.
I had mild symptoms and was only tested because she was positive. The inhaler was key for her.

DD had it with no fever. She was vaxxed/boosted and had only slight congestion - not even enough to register on her radar. The only reason she tested was because her college required it before coming back from winter break.

I remember when NYC said that 25% of those admitted to the hospital didn’t have a fever. So it’s possible. I hope you are on the mend now and feel better every day with no lingering effects.

I had it in January. No fever. I was vaxxed and boosted and my case was very mild. I had a cough and a headache and felt exhausted. The symptoms lasted for about a week.

All 4 of us had it in February 2021 (before any of us were eligible for the vaccine). I had a fever off and on for a day or two, youngest DS had a fever one night, but DH and older DS never had fevers. DH and the boys only knew they had Covid because I had tested positive for it, otherwise it was mostly like a cold (and not even a bad cold) for them beyond the one night YDS had that fever.

I am fully vaxxed and was not yet boosted when I had it Christmas 2021. I had a 103+ fever for 3 days and slept pretty much the whole time. After day 3, I was good to go. My un vaxxed 10 year old had a fever for about 3 hours and a cough. The cough is what tipped me off since it sounded just like mine.

Hopefully your case is mild and you’re already rebounding!
Our whole house had it mid-January (I assume the Omicron version).
Me: vaxxed (J&J), booster in early Dec(Moderna): a headache and mild congestion for 2 days. Every so slightly more tired, worked from home and returned to work asap (that was right when they changed it to 5 day isolation)
Ds11: just barely 3 weeks out from 2nd shot (Pfizer): a single sniffle, returned to school asap
Dh: vaxxed (J&J) not boosted: no fever but chills/night sweats, in bed 16-18hrs/day, cough, etc. He works from home but did bare minimum for almost 2 weeks, went to bed as soon as he was done working.
We had a Disney trip booked and still went since it was 2 weeks post positive tests (and quarantine/isolation had been changed). Ds and I were perfectly fine. Dh still had a lingering mild cough and had to take it a little slower (he’s not a theme park guy anyhow so he was fine with it).

My little family got omicron around Christmas, just a few months ago (thanks to my BIL). All three of us (1, 33, 34) did not have fevers. My husband and I are boosted.

I hope you are feeling better, please come back and update us.
I had Delta back in October. Never ran a fever or any sort of breathing/coughing issues at all. Major daily headaches that went away soon after I took Advil and super tired but that's the extent of it. Lost taste/smell and its returned but not the same as before. Some things still don't smell right to me but I'm thankful that's the extent of my lingering issues.
These posts remind me that COVID is NOT gone, it's not over and I'm starting to get a little nervous about the numbers over across the pond.
Have they given a green light to the general population about when to get a 4th booster? How long after the 3rd?

I feel unwell myself. I just travelled internationally and feel off. I am not sure but I did get an exposure notice from Hawaii.

My husband had Covid, no fever at all. It seems less likely a symptom now, than it was for with the first strain and earlier variants.
