Test: Speak to your physician about having a test for coronavirus detection performed. There are many other circulating viruses and your illness may not be COVID 19 related, but the information may be useful to the community. Avoid contacts, stay home, rest, drink fluids and treat fever with Tylenol.

Your Dr. tells you.: Talk to your doctor , your temp. should be above 100.4, your chest pain should suggest lung trouble. Diarrhea is not major symptom for covid19. Your doctor may want to observe/exam you by putting you in self quarantine to see where your symptoms is heading. May tell you a testing place for a test or may tell you go to ER for an admission for in patient hospital care if your breathing gets worse.
