COVID

[Paulagcl]

I have Covid! I don't recommend it -- I feel terrible. I hope it doesn't cause a flare. I am down to zero prednisone and my adrenals suddenly caught up so I was feeling normal. Still on the Kevzara, however.

Aw rotten luck, Paulagcl! All the best for speedy recovery 💐

Aww poor you! I hope you have good family and friends to help you feel better- with groceries and stuff on doorstep!! Take care and keep cosy and safe. 🌹🌹

Check with your doctor if you should take the Kevzara while you have Covid - I;m on a similar substance and I would be told NOT to do the injection until I was recovered.

Yes, he's told me not to ever take it if I am sick or have an infection going on. But when I see how this week is going I'll ask him about when.

Get well soon!

hopefully you will start to feel better very soon but having had covid recently I discovered you can get anti virals for Covid up to day 5 ( every one seemed to know this but me !). After that say on day 6 if you feel like you aren’t beating it, call your GP or 111 and discuss a home visit. I had Covid, a fever , low blood pressure , high pulse and ‘mentally changed’ and ended up with Covid- related pneumonia in A and E. Even with a pneumonia jab ( you can read my post about it if interested ). With luck you will breeze through but best to be aware.

I'm taking the anti-viral, but thanks for the advice!
