I’d be interested in anyone that has caught the dreaded Covid with a stoma 

The coughing isn’t helping my abdomen but I can hold on with the sneezing and coughing

Its the loose output I didn’t expect. Not sure if there’s any advice from similar experiences members have had. 
Im trying to keep my fluids up and forcing food though I really don’t want it. 

  • Sarah. You definitely sound like you have Covid. You have all the symptoms no matter what the test results were.
    We had two strong red lines to on the LFT the second time we tested 
    Five days after the second line was really faint. Still shows that now although we are not contagious. Still feel exhausted and aches and pains. I power nap a lot.  
    Take it easy for few days. Definitely naps help.

  • Hi Ann

    I only did one test, partner did 4 or 5 but all negative. I never leave the house so whatever it is has come from the office where lots of people had similar but also tested negative. Very strange. I do feel a bit better this morning-did a lot of sleeping yesterday and last night so I’m really hoping to be on the mend now.
