My GP called on 1st April to ask me about the care I wanted during this Covid crisis. I have Rheumatoid, heart disease and bronchiectasis. If I got my "normal " infection do I want to risk hospital admission? and do I want resuscitation? Difficult questions. I have opted for no resuscitation as my normal sats are 93 and I am thinking about quality of life. At present I can look after myself albeit more slowly.
I wish you all out there with health concerns all the best. xxx

That is a bit of a tough question isn’t it. I expect this covid-19 is so severe I am sure many of us on here would not survive anyway. But I am sure I would have answered the same if I was asked. Makes you think doesn’t it.
hello, hope you are feeling well, i know a lot of vulnerable people who are worried more now with the lock down, you had a phone call from your doctor, but dont think any of them did, they just had to play it by ear. do you have a lot of problems with lacking energy - fatigue (not being sleepy or tired but worn out and not able to do things). I had that and found acupuncture helps a lot.
