I went in the hospital with covid pneumonia two weeks ago. The day and day after I was exposed I played sax for two hours on stage and sucked that virus deep in my lungs. A week later and after five days of fevers, my oxygen levels were in the high 70s so we went to the emergency room. I was given Remdesivir for five straight days. I never had to go on the ventilator thank God. I honestly think the doctors at this somewhat liberal city hospital treated me better and gave me treatment because I had had the Johnson and Johnson shot back in May. I am now home recovering on oxygen and I can’t handle any exertion because my o2 levels drop still. So I’m home waiting for my lungs to heal … which is a slow process it turns out. That is my story. You can all take from it what you will. I feel lucky to still be alive when i read the stories of people who did t make it.
