Got some steroids yesterday that improved the situation a lot. So today I felt like eating and had enough energy to sit at my desk. Wife had it also she only had 2 days of body ache loss of smell and that was it.

Hope you feel better fast, Dale. I had it way back in March. Luckily I only felt bad for a couple days. It sure varies.
-
If you lose your sense of smell and taste it usually comes back in about (no pun intended) 2 weeks.
:salute
We all hope for a speedy recovery.

Hope you feel better Hitachi. The wife and I had it over the holidays, got lucky and both of us were asymptomatic.
-
Best wishes, Hitech.

More power to you. My oldest daughter has it now. She said it is like a cold with loss of smell.

Prayers for a speedy recovery Dale.

Take care, HT! I have been fortunate and not had C-19 yet. I teach high school, so I’ve been exposed to several people that were positive. Hope ya get to feeling better!

My buddy smelled his wife's perfume for the first time in four months, on Monday.
His dad went back to the hospital because of random shortness of breath, where he got another steroid shot.
And back to better news, infections are continuing to decline, worldwide. Very interesting.
Also, monoclonal antibodies got FDA Approval. So we have plasma, remdesimir, antibodies, and steroids as options for treatment.

Sorry to hear that on you getting COVID.
Do you have a good guess where you might have gotten it?
Wishing you a speedy recovery. :salute

Take care HT.
I had it in August, 3 days fever and cough and snore for some days, however one of my friends got it in April, have slowly recovered, but still work only 75% due to fatigue.

Take care of yourself and your family. :pray :salute

Yeah you take care of yourself and the family. Nothing so critical going on that you have to neglect your health. Last thing you want to do is push it and end up on a ventilator.

Take care!

Hopefully ye be over and done with it. :salute
My brother tested positive Tue of last week, but he had returned from out of town the Sat prior feeling ill. I live with him (his house), and so far I haven't had any new symptoms. By "new symptoms", I do have a couple of the symptoms, but from another issue I'm going through and had them well before (had them since Nov of last year) he got Covid. So I'm having to keep an eye out for any of the other symptoms. So far a-okay, but still a few days to go before he's cleared from Sat (when he came home ill). If I go off of when he got the results, still a week of keeping an eye out. I hardly leave my room due to my current issue, so interaction is been very limited from the get go. He kept his sense of taste and smell, and I heard him with a very mild cough, but haven't asked him about what other symptoms he had as well.

Hoping your well soon Sir

Hope you feel better soon Hitech!
Take some vitamin D liquid capsules, about 4000+ iu if you can. It will give you some energy to help fight it.
Surprisingly, this the first year I have not been sick with a cold. Usually comes around Nov-Dec for me.
I've been taking 4000 iu of vitamin D a day and it's really been helping me with energy and focus actually. Especially being out here in Oregon with so much rain.
If you aren't getting better In a day, try to go get Ivermecitin like Brooke said, or HCQ. That should clear it up quickly.
-
Crud.
Do you know how you got it?
Kids probably. They are monstrous little biological warfare weapons. They'll kill us all. ;)
When I worked with people who had young kids, I was always sick. Now I work with empty-nesters, I am almost never sick.

Hope you feel better fast, Dale. I had it way back in March. Luckily I only felt bad for a couple days. It sure varies.
Were you tested for the anti-bodies?

Had covid pneumonia last month, felt sick jan 1 and around the 20th started feeling better. Lucky my wife is head of respiratory and was able to get a home bipap for me. Once i got the steroids i couldn't stop eating, but still couldn't work up the energy to do much. Only able to work half days 3 days a week right now, just don't have any endurance any more. Any physical activity just burns me out, painted one room at the house yesterday and feels like i did a heavy work out.
Good luck!
-
Hope you get well soon HT.
-
Thanks for all the well wishes.
I also have covid pneumonia
Doing much better, Head finally cleared yesterday so sinus headache gone. Only effects I notice now is winded when going up and down stairs to my office along loss of smell. Tanking Antibiotics and Steroids as well as inhaler.
I monitor O2 and heart rate back to my normal at rest rate.

Great prognosis. Those I know who've been bitten by this bug say it takes weeks + to regain full energy. Take it slow & easy.
-
Glad you're feeling better. My entire family got it in early January and it was pretty mild for all of us. We were all back to normal in about 2-3 weeks with our sense of smell slowly returning. Our kids just had a fever for 1 day and then were fine. I had a bad cough for a couple days and then the cough went away and I just felt like I had a regular cold. My wife was very tired and probably took the longest to recover. We know exactly who we caught it from and talking to them and their family it is crazy how everyone had different symptoms to Covid. Some mild and some required steroids at the ER and got pneumonia also. Take it easy and get well soon.

Hi Dale,
Hope things go well for you and you and your sweetie get better soon! My 92 year old dad was in the hospital with Covid pneumonia after some time of denial that he had Covid. He had convinced himself he was getting better as my sister watched him decline, until she convinced him to go in. He's better now, they turned him around quickly. I'm hoping that he can find and share details of his treatment while in the hospital. They had him on Vitamin B-1, Zinc and eliquis when he went home. The eliquis is a blood thinner; they were concerned about the possibility of throwing clots.

My wife and I had it back in November. She was in the hospital for a week and I had a 3-day backache as my only symptom. Now the wife just tested positive again. No symptoms this time around, so not sure if it is just some residual virus being shed or if it is new. Son was home the whole time we were sick and never got it. Parents are in their 60s got it and they said it was like the normal flu for 4 days.
This thing hits different for everyone.
Get better soon HT.

My family has not had Covid, so far. I have a friend who is recovering from Covid. He said it was like getting hit with a truck and then having that truck park on his chest. Fortunately he was down for two or three weeks, then up and around again, but he still gets tired easily.
So take care of you and your family.

I’m sure you know this already but in case you or others don’t, heart rate/pulse can go up when you’re fighting an infection. In addition the albuterol and other similar inhalers are a stimulant and will raise your pulse.
Many people with asthma who use them find if they need it at night it’s hard to sleep.
Hope you’re on the upswing now! :pray

Dang, I missed all this. I hope you're fully recovered now. If not, get well soon.

Little sister called last night...she has it
She is 59 with lung issues

So sorry to hear that Dale! Hope you and your wife have a speedy recovery and can get a vaccine soon! Meanwhile, as mentioned above, take Vitamin D and we also take Zinc tablets. Husband (was Zeb here) had his first vaccine last Saturday, and I get mine next Sunday. <3

Hope you feel better soon HT, C19 can really suck.
I tested positive on Feb 8th myself, I have a very overactive immune system though with SLE/Lupus, and it beat off the C19 symptoms in just a few days, and I felt 100% within 7 days of noticing the first cold like symptoms.
My father on the other hand is in the ICU with it right now, as he tested positive about the same time I did.
This virus can have wildly different effects with people.

I just got out of the hospital on Saturday, had covid, was doing okay, then I just couldn't hold anything down. Got dehydrated, was talking gibberish, put in the hospital, got iv and Remdisivar and steroid treatments. I have Covid pneumonia lung damage, but Doctor says minor issues. Have four more days of steroid and oxygen treatments. The worse part is the steroids are really making me antsy, can't concentrate and actually don't really care to pay attention to anything.
Anyone who thinks this crap is a hoax is an idiot, it sucks...

WHOA Hitech! Very sorry to see this. Im behind. Sure glad to hear from other post you are getting better <Salute> to you and your family.

Dale! So sorry you're battling covid-19, keep on fighting every moment, sleep on your stomach not the back, do everything to push push push fight fight fight. It wan'ts you to sleep, but also need to move around even though you don't feel like it.
Stretch hands above chest, breathing exercises, etc.
After the plethora of recovery testimonials I've seen online and from two of my friends personally impacted after catching it.
Scary stuff.
