I was diagnosed with COVID-19 and Flu 3 days ago at the same time. I also had unbearable back pain, right knee pain, and the worst headache in my eyes I’ve ever had. Was running a fever of 101.4.
All they did was test me for COVID-19 and Flu. Tested positive for both. They gave me a prescription and sent me home. Didn’t look at any other issue I had.
Since the doctor visit, I’ve lost some symptoms, like no more headache or fever, but now I have uncontrollable shakes in hands in arms and legs. I have difficulty getting a full breath. I get nauseous if I move at all. They gave me meds. One of them is for spasms and all the symptoms I have are in the side effects. I’m miserable and don’t feel better at all.

Yes, definitely go back for a quick recheck - as we know, the ER is a great place to go for obvious injuries/issues, but it's fast and busy, with them only having time to check for serious/obvious issues, so if you do not have a "PCP" that you could get in to see tomorrow, then go back to the ER to make certain that they haven't overlooked something?
