Covid positive

Hello everyone.

Here I am among those who picked up Covid 19.

After 5 days it gets better, but it's really bad. Headache, fatigue, muscle pain and temperature 37.4-37.8 degrees Celsius. Lost smell and taste. So much fatigue that you don't want to get out of bed. Until you get it yourself you don't know how is it but trust me it's nasty but i have milder symptoms.

Beware as much as you can.

They started Monday and Tues. Keep us updated and we can compare progress. Try kielbasa and sauerkraut. When my taise disappeared in chemo, I could still taste that dish. Keep up your good spirits through a stay home sick Christmas. Doug

I hope you have a speedy recovery! My best friend got it and recovered, but is now suffering his second bout of secondary pneumonia.

Getting the vaccine soon as I an an essential worker, rather be safe, wear a mask and social distance all the time.

Any idea how you contracted it?

The wife is also positive. Maybe through the wife because her colleague at work is infected even though they were not in close contact.

Weird, just like PCa, everyone can be different. I had it over Thanksgiving, had a mild cough and some congestion. Took NyQuil for a week and was over it. No fatigue or loss of taste/smell.

Here is a regimen which, if used early after symptoms begin, will almost certainly keep one from developing serious problems. I have known several people who have followed it, and none have had to be hospitalized. I'm not a (medical) doctor, so just reporting, not prescribing:

*Hydroxychloroquine 200 mg 1 pill twice a day for 5 days

*Azithromycin 500mg 1 pill a day for 5 days

*Zinc 50 mg 1 pill twice a day for 5 days and 1 pill a day thereafter

*Vitamin C 500 mg 1 pill two times a day for 5 days and continue thereafter

*Vitamin D3 – 1 pill a day

*Nebulizer with Budesonide every 6 hours for 5 days or until all lung issues subside

(the Budesonide comes in individual, pre-measured, plastic vials for nebulizer use)
