DH contracted covid last weekend playing golf (never went inside). He has afib and because of his medications could not take Paxlovid so he had the monoclonal infusion. He is feeling better other than a lingering cough.The bummer is he was scheduled for a long awaited catheter ablation on July 6, which they won't do now because he had covid within the last 30 days. It was postponed till September 7 (first available opening).
I tested postive this morning and immediately called my doctor and was prescribed Paxlovid. I had a slight fever and sore throat last night and today just nasal congestion and some coughing, basically like a typical cold. I'm 69 have no other issues and have had the vaccine and 2 boosters. My doctor told me to take Paxlovid because of my age. I'm skeptical of taking it because I don't feel very sick but worry that maybe the virus will replicate in me and I will get sicker.
I'm so over this covid thing. We have been extremely cautious keeping current with vaccines, continuing to mask (when the rest of the world isnt) and only attending outdoor functions. I guess it is what it is.
Can anyone here tell me what their experience with Paxlovid was like?
