Day 6 with the Covid: Alive, but can't really call it

living yet. Wobbled to my chair just in time to hear No.1 son yakking in the toilet again. He has had a lot of intestinal problems anyway over the years, and this Covid has gotten him back into a daily pattern of upchucking, not a good thing. He has a gastric pacemaker installed, I think they need to increase the speed of it, but I am not a doc.
Myself, the sore throat STILL doggedly refuses to leave. It may be better by a few degrees, but still scorching hot. And, still a lot of muscle aches. I only have one more round of Covid meds to take, I'll have to try and coerce something else out of the doctor after that, looks like.
What's going on in the real world according to Tigernet?

who said that could make things worse. Sounded like a couple had been there and done that. I have no need to ALWAYS learn from my own mistakes, sometimes I will actually use wisdom from others.
I did take two slugs of Nyquil last night, lasted about half the night. Half is better than none, unless you are talking about STD's!

Hang in there 76er. Claim the promise of the Scriptures for yourself: "My Grace is always sufficient for thee." Thus saith the Lord.
Lifting you up to Him and asking for His healing touch!

Praying for you.
COVID is a real disease. Some people never catch it. Others catch it but it is very minor. Some catch it and it really knocks them down. I was in the "very minor" group. Felt bad for 48 hours, then started feeling much better and by day 5 felt 100%.
The only advice I can give you is to get good medical advice and then follow that advice.

You are in our thoughts and prayers. I hope you can get an edge on this enemy and be able to feel the power by game time next week.

So much so that I said years ago, "If it was raining (female sex parts), I'd catch one with a (male sex part) stuck it it."
Now, that's bad luck right there.

Did you have any vaccines prior to this? I have family members in SC who did and some did not so I'm curious as to what they may experience if they get Covid. I wish you well.

but whether or not someone got the shots is a terrible predictor of how they will be affected by the virus.
The severity of the virus is overwhelmingly more tied to other factors such as co-morbidities.

whole mew pacemaker/ICD put in last Thursday. Knock on wood, but it has been a piece of cake so far; no pain to speak of, just some minor discomfort, and can't lift anything with or extend left arm. The worst thing is I can't drive for another 10 days or so. It sounds like you've got it rough, brother. The good thing is, you've got to be close to getting over the hump by now. Thoughts and prayers your way, 76er!

new one is even MRI compatible. They have really come a long way. It uses Bluetooth every night to download data to a bedside monitor which transmits any activity such as otherwise undetected arrhythmia and tachycardia to alert doctors office. The technology is amazing.
