I think you should be tested for Covid-19. I went to GP when I am down with flu symptoms, I was sent for swap test; no medication given also. When I see my Gynae I forgot to mention about my flu, hence, I tried to nurse myself to recovery by drinking lots of water, sleep and rest more. I recall my Gynae did mention that it is ok to take paracetamol for pain and fever. But my suggestion is to seek Gynae advice. Take good care, and may God bless you and your baby.
