The thing that bothers me now is a wheezing sound at night when I breathe but I use a white noise machine anyway so it's not a problem. I doubt I had the virus and I have an N100 mask I've worn since the beginning of the pandemic. I also spray alcohol on my groceries, shower and wash my clothes after going to the store. I would like to get tested for the antibodies one day to see if it was the virus.

At the same time I felt similar but that was when the pollen was on steroids and my allergy med wasn't knocking it down. I was out of work a few days, went back for one, then they told me I needed to get tested to return.
It took a few days to get scheduled and go to the Polo Grounds, then a few more days to get results. I was negative as it was my allergies as I had suspected.
I'm a janitor working in an auto dealership, I'm around 75+ employees daily as well as 25-50 customers daily and when I'm near people I wear a face covering. I constantly wash my hands and in many instances at work I also wear gloves.
I'm trying to follow CDC guidelines and do what I need to do to keep myself and family safe.
