Resolution: It may take weeks to resolve COVID 19 symptoms. A virtual consult on HT is available to further discuss details. A repeat test is recommended. There have been prolonged cases and recurrent cases. Did the symptoms improve and then returned? Watch for signs of worsening cough, shortness of breath and fever.

COVID 19 concerns: You could have residual COVID 19 symptoms. Depending on severity of illness, people may have sequela for weeks to months. This could also be from another cause. You can consult with your provider to help determine the cause of these symptoms. There is a good chance that more testing will not be required.
