COVID is weak

[Nape]

Yea. I had covid and started freaking out about my o2 levels. When I went to the dr my o2 was 98% or something and I realized I was just making myself worried about o2. The headache was the only thing that sucked for mine. I didn't realize I had lost my smell until I had gone back to work and we had a plumbing issue that stunk up the office and I couldn't tell what people were talking about. LOL.

After I was diagnosed 5 days later my doc asked me to get a pulse oximeter. I got it on Wednesday night and my reading was 88. By Friday morning, right before my wife took me to the ER, my sats were at 65.

I jinxed myself. My chest is getting tight as we speak. Still weak so far though.

Reefer is your best bet....edible form, preferably.

My youngest boy, a FR at Iowa, had it two weeks before Memorial Day and didn’t get his taste back until the end of September. Other 3 got it back in a couple of weeks. It’s nuts how random this bug is.

My best friend had it and never even felt bad, lost taste and smell and that was it. The bad part, it's been 3 months and he still hasn't regained it. Too had I don't have that problem...Would probably help me knock off 20 pounds.

This is why I didn’t say a word when I had it.

Seriously though, as long as you don’t get a wet cough hacking up pink goop you should be fine. Shit for whatever reason strikes with a vengeance at night.

Go to bed as early as you can to be able and sleep through the night.

Had it over Christmas and it wasn’t that bad. Tired all the time for a week or two was the worst symptom to me. Smell and taste went away for a couple of weeks. Only thing lingering is that my shit doesn’t smell the same 4 months later. Not sure if it’s my sense of smell or my actual shit smell changed. Girlfriend said the same and she had it too at the same time. Weird as fuck. But that maybe a good thing because I could clear a room for a couple hours before Covid.

Update: I’m losing my voice and my chest is tight. Shit’s still weak.

Can you take a deep breath? Careful your throat may be swelling shut.

Still can so that’s good.

Go try to get some HCQ or Ivermectin and beat it down. There's no pride points on this thing, but better to use some sort of intervention to help you out IMO.

[Sparty1045]

I’m extremely fatigued. I’ve been in and out since 7 this morning. Voice is gone but I’m doing good overall. IMO I am kicking COVID’s ass.

At least load up on the vitamins and zinc. C and D specifically. I had three days of utter fatigue back in Feb 2020. Loaded up on the vit and zinc and started getting better the next day. SKOL!

We’ll see how stubborn you are when the breathing hits you in about 48 to 72 hours.

Don’t play around with this virus.

Maybe you're just a pussy

Out of curiosity @Sparty1045 , do you typically wear a mask when you go out and about?

No, I hate masks. I caught it from someone I know.

That would suck. I don’t know what I’d do if my shit stopped smelling like lilacs.

Hows your symptoms?

 

[Sparty1045]

Throat is getting worse. Feels like it’s swelling. Lost my voice. Slight dry cough. Tired as hell. No runny nose.

Cough squeaking or whistling yet?

 

[Sparty1045]

Cough squeaking or whistling yet?

Yes, but it’s a dry cough like squeak/whistle. Is that bad?

 

[BigBucnNole]

That just means your lungs are inflamed. They are contracting and making a narrow pathway for air, hence the whistle noise. As long as it doesn't turn into the pink goop which is blood and phlegm mixed together, I'd sit tight. Really should get an oximeter.

Serious shit begins when folks breath dries up tot he point they cant get from the bed to the bathroom.

That sounds awful. I don’t really feel sick. Just fatigue, tight chest, and a dry cough.

You should know where you stand in the next 24 to 48 hours.

Coronavirus: how quickly do COVID-19 symptoms develop and how long do they last?

By now, hopefully everyone knows about the key symptoms of coronavirus - fever about 37.8°C and new continuous cough. But there's still much confusion about how quickly symptoms develop after exposure to the virus and what you can expect if you do become infected.

patient.info

Day 6 let's most folks know if they are going to the hospital. Day 9 is when the goop develops. Ted Nugent got that I believe.

Man, I’m really tired folks. This is some BS.

Wouldn’t be a bad idea to get the doc to prescribe a nebulizer and steroid for breathing treatments.

I was never tired when I had it.
