Ted Nugent has revealed that he feared for his life during his recent battle with COVID-19.
"Five or six days ago, it was really bad. I didn't think I was gonna make it," the guitarist declared during a live webcast tonight. "I literally couldn't function for about 20 hours... I've never been so scared in all my life."
He described his symptoms as a "six-foot-two, 225-pound headache, like nothing I have ever experienced. I mean, from the tip of my toes to the top of my hair I literally was dizzy and weak and struggled to get up to go to the bathroom."
Nugent then explained that a group of doctors came to his aid, with one even paying for a private plane to take him to a hospital. "They came from around the world, they go, 'Uncle Ted we got the stuff, Uncle Ted don't worry we got you covered, Uncle Ted we're sending a plane and we're taking you to the UT medical center and we got ya, man!' I could literally cry, it was so powerful."
The "Cat Scratch Fever" singer revealed he's now feeling much better. "It's like I'm the fastest hot rod at the drag strip, where all my horsepower and all my torque and my oxygen levels and all my vital signs, that I monitor throughout the day, are all perfecto."
You can see and hear Nugent's comments starting at the 15 minute mark of the video below.
How old are you?
Yep, the flu can floor a person for a week as well.
Had the exact same symptoms, except that I didn't realize it was from the Shingles 2nd shot, having had herniated discs pressing on nerves.
Pain started between my shoulder blades and then 'traveled' later that week to my lower back....the most excruciating pains ever experienced. Thought I would die!
'Lost' the entire month of January with that. Had Cat Scan done...showed nothing and the effing staff/doctors at Kaiser Permanente never mentioned the Shingles vaccine may have been the culprit.
Maybe it wasn’t covid. Maybe it was cat scratch fever.
My pain nearly disappeared very quickly; the only residual pain I attribute to age. You need a peripheral blood vessel and nerve workup.
Oh thats a bummer, we have been taking it since last summer even though we both had the fauci flu, no side effects, hope you get better
He may have some underlying conditions. My dad had it a month before it was announced or being talked about by Trump. He was in the hospital and was in bad shape.. treated him for pneumonia and pulled through but had a rough 4 or 5 days. Headache and couldn’t breath.
I’m only 15 years behind him so I’m hoping to learn something from his experience.
Thanks!
Well, I’m pushing 70, so I hope this does it. I have occasional knee pain now and then, but nothing like this.
Thanks.

Seems like anymore, we need to be our own physicians...
China won the war, any other time in History we would be nuking china or in the old days declaring war,,, we lost , and gave up in a whimper,
I had the China flu, it was not as bad as the flu I had in January 1993. I was treated better then than this time. The doctors actually gave me the “go home and take plenty of fluids, keep your fever down” treatment. I am 67 years old and am being treated for cancer. I went to the ER and they put me in an exam room and left me alone for 8 hours. Even ignoring my button pushing. No fluids were given, though the vein catheter was in place. Nothing to drink. I had to call my daughter and get her to call them and bitch them out, they got me a glass of water finally, and then kicked me out. From my observations, the doctors and nurses spent more time than normal yucking it up, the Hospital was nearly empty, though they were only allowing Mexican nationals to be in the waiting room with family. Mine were disallowed from the premises, per the policy.
we didn’t give up in a whimper...
people are too busy running around like chicken little screeching “we’re all gonna die” and arguing about the vaccine to worry about communists taking over our country...
What did they treat him with?
Are you just taking the quercetin or combining the quercetin with zinc?
