The persistent cough appears to have finally paved way to some breathing difficulties and tightness across the chest, the one major COVID-19 symptom I have yet to exhibit until now.
Each deep breath only encourages another cough, the only way to reduce the likelihood of coughing is to take short, shallow breaths for now. It will be interesting to see how this develops.

Something felt like it wanted to come up as I am coughing, first thought was phlegm, a quick rush to the bathroom and the cough has been so bad, it has brought up some blood, not cool!
No major concerns just yet as this is a side effect of a severe cough, will see how tonight’s rest goes.
Good night peeps and stay safe!
