A 70 year old friend of mine who lives on Coronado Island was up visiting her grandchildren on Bainbridge Island in late November of 2019 when she became very, very sick, the worst 'flu' of her life she thought. Her symptoms and length of illness parallel what you describe. She also lost her sense of taste and smell. Most of the family were very ill. Two of the children suffered pneumonia.
A lot of Chinese nationals reside in that area and are visited by relatives living in China. So looking back, my friend believes that she likely contracted COVID-19. She has not been tested but will probably get tested when tests become readily available.
I hope you are back to normal!
