  5. I'm back home from corona isolation because I tested positive for asymptomatic COVID-19. I've been isolating since July 28th and now I'm in home quarantine. While I was in isolation, my blood oxygen levels never dropped below 97, and I never had a fever, just a bit of tiredness. Since yesterday, I've noticed I need to take a long breath every 45 minutes, but then I'm able to breathe normally and can do pranayam exercises without a problem. After a 6-minute walk, my blood oxygen level is still 99 and I haven't felt any chest congestion or cough. I'm currently taking Pehist syrup and vitamin C tablets. The doctor at the quarantine center said I'd be fine, but I'm worried. Could this be just anxiety, or should I be concerned since I can't stop thinking about it?
