My son sent me a message today to say he is still feeling really ill with temp. He can't move without coughing and is exhausted. He's lost his sense of smell but has no breathing problems which is good. His doc says he just has to ride it out. I am worried about him of course and he has health anxiety also, I do feel sorry for him. It is a horrible illness. He is almost 52 so not old but not young either.
Thank you all for your replies, it has helped me to calm down somewhat.
