For what it’s worth, I’m a middle aged adult who tested positive for RSV over a week ago and it made me pretty sick. Not like full blown flu sick, but enough to ruin deer season for me. Lungs hurt when I breathed, coughing my brains out, snot, low energy, etc. Five of us in my house ended up getting it. My preschooler brought it home to us.

I was tested for flu and COVID with negative results. I've been sick for nearly 3 weeks with the same symptoms you had. I'm in my mid 50s. I think this is the first day I have not coughed. My wife got it but recovered quickly with little symptoms. I had COVID back in July and it was not as bad as this!
