Tested positive for covid 2/11/22, via 111 went through to Covid Medicine Delivery Unit at St Georges Hospital at Stafford. They prescribed molnupiravir antiviral tablets and sent it out to me 25 miles away via a blood bike, brilliant service.
Two days later had a very red rash covering the palms of my hands but not on the fingers, had big patches on my back and chest and it was on my neck at the front and back, again phoned 111 and eventually asked me to go into Queens Hospital Burton for examination, they decided it was a viral rash from my CLL damaged immune system or the antiviral tablets, they weren't too worried about it and sent me home and told me to complete the course of antivirals.
Its now 2 weeks and am still testing positive and am still feeling very rough, headaches, body aches, blocked stuffy nose requires blowing every 10 minutes and alternate between going hot and cold no energy. Spoke to 111 again and they arranged a call back from Covid Medicine Delivery Unit whom say you can only have 1 drug within 5 days of testing positive and there are no 2nd line drugs! they at my insistence are arranging a call back from one of their doctors. My CNS is not available and have left a message for my Haemotologist to phone me.
I was diagnosed with CLL (Matutes score 5) in July 2013 stillll on WW although haematologist keeps asking about starting chemotherapy, am diabetic, previous bowel cancer 2004, 2 x colon resections and 30 weeks of chemotherapy, collapsed lung 1992 (spontaneous pneumothorax) cured by pleuradesis + several other things like heart murmur, high PSA, calcium deficiency and divercation of the adonis recti..... am 74 years old and reasonably active and fit ain't giving in to covid! Anyone any ideas?
