I Beat severe Covid-19 AMA

Thankfully I've never had the symptoms, and I feel very lucky to have gotten away with it. I car share with 3 other people to get to work. In the front sits the driver, with another guy in the passenger  seat. I sit in the back, with this girl. 

Recently, the girl that sits next to me in the back got COVID-19. Couple of days later, the guy that sits in the front passenger seat also comes down with it. Because I shared a small condensed space with 2 people who tested positive for it, I rang 119 (UK) and they asked me a bunch of questions. As I had no symptoms myself, but had been in contact with 2 people who tested positive, I had no option but to isolate for 2 weeks. I had plenty of holidays to use at work so I put those in rather than stand sick money. So I got 2 weeks off, and only needed to ring 119 again if I started feeling any symptoms, which I didn't.

And now I'm back at work as normal.

So it seems that I am either very lucky and don't get affected by this virus, or I got really really lucky by not getting it even though I possibly could. I'm pretty careful with my face mask and sanitizer, so maybe that helped.

To the rest of you, I wish you nothing but good luck and hope you manage to stay safe.

Peace.

I am in middle age. Got it for three weeks.  No fever so I didn't think I had it.  I have had prior heart  issues so I thought it was a flare-up.  I had very high blood pressure, which has since come down.  Usually when I have a flare-up, it doesn't just start and go away.  I usually end up in the hospital when it's that bad and have to get IV and heart shocked to put it back.  But after 3 weeks or so, started to feel better. I had aches, pains (not the chronic type I always have, but on top of that), fatigue so bad I could not get out of bed.  Since no fever, they told me not to come unless breathing was bad.  I had to sleep on one side and my body would wake myself up not being able to breathe and I'd turn over.  I've had 2 negative tests now so I am over it and afterwards felt strangely great and energetic, but that could be psychological.  I feel so sorry for people even older than myself who suffer alone and have no one to help them.  Virtual hugs to all of you.  I miss the real hugs so much.  By the way, I have found if you have a business, no one understands how long this can go on.  In my experience, if I couldn't get my work done, people were unsympathetic and downright mean while I laid in bed and hoped it would not get worse and I would wind up in the hospital alone and die alone.   Sick and tired with the fakeness that government and anyone other than first responders care about this.   In these months, my dreams  for future have turned to desolation and nightmares.  I have had nightmares and heightened anxiety for months.  I am sure I'm not the only one and that's what keeps me going.  Good luck to all of you.  Try not to take chances.  It's not worth it.  

 
@Handsley I’m so sorry to hear about this. Although I haven’t had it that know of as I had some illnesses here and there as of late, I can empathize with you and hate that you feel/felt like that as it sounds awful. I’m glad that you’re feeling better. My brother in law has it and he is my age, mid 30s, and it’s pretty bad. My wife and I take full precautions daily, and yet I fear  it deeply and have much anxiety and worry. So yes, I hope you can take some solace that you’re not the only one. I cannot understand others who not only don’t care enough to protect themselves, but for others to take precautions. It’s no joke.  Over 3,000 people in the USA died today from COVID-19.

I hope you continue healing. Not just physically, but emotionally and mentally as well. Good luck and nothing but well wishes and positivity to you.

  2. shoutback @ shoutback: Thanks 😊
  3. D @ drdrizzy13: Have a good run bro.
  4. D @ drdrizzy13: yeah i'd rather them win than the Pats
  5. shoutback @ shoutback: Oh and GO SEAHAWKS
  6. shoutback @ shoutback: Anyways I have to get ready to go on my run, it's been fun talking
  7. shoutback @ shoutback: I think when we have open discourse without preconceptions we all agree more than we disagree
  8. D @ drdrizzy13: Oh I totally agree and I agree the War on Drugs was and is a complete failure.
  9. shoutback @ shoutback: I'm not trying to say my point of view is better than others, just think we need to have more open and honest discussion about everything
  10. D @ drdrizzy13: You are right it probably doesn't. It has pretty much ruined my other first cousins live. He is so out there. It just sucks to see ya know. They take it to the extreme.
  11. shoutback @ shoutback: @drdrizzy13 your exoerience does not reflect the overall mainstream
  12. D @ drdrizzy13: yea for sure.
  13. shoutback @ shoutback: This is one of the few places in the internet where we can freely discuss this things and taking reactive stance like fentanyl and zenes are the devil do not promote a heathy discourse on the subject, though I understand admin also does not want to be under constant threat of people like the dea and fda
  14. D @ drdrizzy13: Honestly I can't think of any alcohoclis except for a friends Dad. I haven't drank in 10 years. I don't really hang around peole that drink or go to bars. I just hate being around drunks lol. And going to bars sucks if your not drinking too.
  15. shoutback @ shoutback: We don't work on something and do not continue developing with developing safeguards and appropriate treatment methods we adapt to what we learn. How many people do you know with alcohol addictions ? How many violent rapes and murders do we see happen under someone under the influence of alcohol yet alcohol is not demonized in the way fentanyl is and that affects much less people. Let's not be hypocritical. The prohibition model does not work and this is no place where we should be promoting it
  16. D @ drdrizzy13: I agree with that point.
  17. shoutback @ shoutback: They would not been sought after by mainstream users if things like heroin were not so criminalized
  18. D @ drdrizzy13: portugal demcrined drugs in 2001 for personal use. It worked for a while. They saw less ODs but now it says in recent years it has scene an increase in ODs and drug related crime. So i guess it worked there for a couple of decades lol
  19. shoutback @ shoutback: All drugs, every single one. The manner of dispensing them might be different but acrimilization and demonization is just terrible in practice and it's inmho genocidal behavior. What we are seeing with the fentanyl and zene crisis is an actual failing of these laws
  20. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: F$CK Z3NES!
