I tested positive for covid a few days ago and got the oddest symptom: very, very sore throat keeping me unable to swallow and thus unable to drink my water. Been to ER twice and getting admitted now to jydrste me. Gfr dropped from 30 to 24. Wish me luck.

COVID UPDATE: Well your good wishes worked as well as the water. GFR back to pre-covid levels 31.3 and blood pressure back to 130/50.. Pain meds has helped me drink water without pain but I'm still having pain after drinking Boost, but this pain is more manageable. They want me to try a throat spay to see if thst helps as well. I msy beDischgeed tonight or tomorrow. BIG THANKS. I love you all
