It is now day 21ish and I just have a bit of a cough left...it comes on after harder efforts while zwifting...not during the effort but after when recovering from the effort. It is similar to "exercise induced asthma" which I also have but not often. Still some general weakness but it seems I'm about 85% recovered...just a guess.
I stopped riding just for the first 3 days as I felt like crap and spent most of the time sleeping.
Covid sucks but I guess I'm lucky in that the effect wasn't too bad.
Interesting. So after the 101°F diminished to something less, you were back on the bike right away? I think I'll be more conservative than that.
Best of luck for your imminent return to 100%
I know about exercise-induced asthma - I've had bouts of it for years.
