I hope this ain't a squirt joke M. If its not, sorry to hear.  I hope your incident is one of the millions of mild cases and you get well quick.  Not sure what else I can say or do to help.

Makes my gripe about a package outstanding for over a month irrelevant..

I’ve only had mild symptoms starting a week ago today. Took the test Monday and didn’t get it back til today. Felt fine by Thursday then lost my sense of smell and taste Thursday night.

By yesterday I felt fine physically but really kind of light headed and dizzy. Long hot shower and a walk in the brisk Halloween air helped some. Today hasn’t been bad. Went straight into quarantine as soon as I started feeling funny so hopefully didn’t spread it.

Definitely a different feeling than a normal cold or flu...I just knew I had it even before the test came back. I wasn’t going to mention it until I saw this thread. I live in an area where the rates are very low so I am surprised I picked it up.

Is your sense of smell and taste still awol, M?

The senses have been gradually coming back since Monday. Haven’t had much of an appetite. It’s like I’m hungry but nothing sounds good. But today I was hungry for breakfast and ate again this afternoon.

The county I live in applied for and received a grant for groceries for people who are isolating. When they called me Sunday to report I had a positive result they asked me to send them a 2 week grocery list and they would deliver it to the house. So I did and then finally this morning they confirmed the list and about an hour ago two weeks worth of groceries showed up on the front porch one hour AFTER the health department sent me a letter stating I’m released from isolation stating tomorrow 😂😂😂

I hope your grocery list was all BUD and nothing else.

BUD, two blondes, and Marlboro Reds

Glad to hear it was mild and you rebounded.

Gotta opt for fedex these days... My stella shafts shipped ems close to 2 weeks ago and still no sign of them...

I'm getting a box from Japan by Fedex tomorrow.  Fedex seems to be more based on size, while EMS more on weight.
Package came into Anchorage, zipped thru customs, then to Memphis.   Total of 3 or 4 days.  I usually get 4 to 5 days on EMS. 
I think they must give a special rate to bigger customers.

Rinkya uses FedEx for their “rinkya prime” service and its shockingly fast

[wmclarenf1]

Yeah.  Just gonna pay the difference for Fedex on the next shipment.
