COVID SLIDE:
Thanks for the well wishes. I don’t know if it’s Rona or not because if I’m not sick enough to see a doctor I’m not getting tested. I feel better this morning. I still have the deep ripping cough but no flashing lights in my vision. The congestion and runny nose are almost gone from my head. All I have to deal with now is the congestion in my lungs and it’s not as bad as it was in 2020. The sneezing and runny nose started about 3 days before it went to my lungs.
Coyotes were in the yard last night and all three of my little house dogs jumped in bed with me and woke me up. I got a lot of coughing done then so not as much this morning. I’m still congested but that will take a while.
I’m still taking my vitamins (Zinc Quercetin, 1000mg of C, 5000mg of D3, and Famotidine), and have taken IVM for three days. I don’t do the Quercetin and IVM together. One morning; one night. I didn’t start the IVM until the lung congestion hit. My oxygen level is staying up and I haven’t had a fever.
My daughter got sick two weeks ago with this crud. She was bad enough to come down and go through my husband’s expired RX meds that he won’t toss. She found a bottle with four antibiotics and took them. She wouldn’t get tested since she is fully vaxxed. 😁 Well, a week ago, and a week after she first got sick, they sent her whole department at work home because 14 of them tested positive for Covid (Omicron). She’s still working from home. Omicron is raging through her work. Odds of me having it are good. LOL I have had her same symptoms, but I haven’t been even close to as sick as she was. I am not vaxxed.
I have had to take a noon nap each day, but I try not to be horizontal for too long because of the lung congestion. I’m not fatigued but I have been sleeping pretty good at night. An hour or so before bed I take a Melatonin and half a Benadryl. At bedtime I take another Melatonin, half a Benadryl, the second Famotidine, and drink a glass of chocolate milk.
For now, I’m good. It feels like a normal winter cold except for the handful of odd symptoms. In a strange way, I hope it’s Omicron so that I get some antibodies. I have been getting out in public some and I’m around my vaxxed kids that are getting exposed daily so it would be very strange if I don’t have it.
A friend of my husband had to be tested at work last week. He has had Covid twice in the last year. He tested negative this time and only had a sinus infection. He never had lung congestion, so he went back to work.
I really, really hope that if it’s just a cold I don’t get the actual Omicron, or even worse, Delta, on top of it or soon after.
Sorry this was so long but I was trying really hard not to make a slide or participate in one. Thanks to everybody that sent me private messages.
For now I’m good.
Thank you so much for the information!
Glad to know you are feeling better.
ThankQ for the update; prayers 🙏🙏 🙏 UP for y’all !
When you get fully over it, go to Kroger’s pharmacy and get a IgG IgM antibody test. It will show if you had the covid.
Sounds a lot like a cold, or mild flu. Which is what the Omicron apparently resembles.
Anyway, get well soon, fellow Tennessean.
