“Covid-19 ”
A month ago, my mom ended up in the hospital from complications with a few of her medications. She was tested for covid and was positive. I never got tested and she finally was able to come home after her stay at the hospital. My question is it all right to go to my upcoming doctor appointments?

As long as you are not having any fevers or symptoms, you are okay to go to your appointments
To be super cautious you can do a home test for COVID at home on yourself

Thanks for the question. If you were directly exposed, you should test before exposing others, including people in your doctor's office. You can have and spread covid without having any symptoms. However, if you are without symptoms and more than 10 days after last exposure, you are likely safe.
