Hfff. After quite a long time avoiding it, I finally got covid!

I might have some miso paste! I'll try that, thanks!

Sure thing! Just make sure the water isn't scalding hot when you stir it in, it will kill the flora on there. It should be pleasantly warm, like a good cup of tea.

Any improvement today? Hope so!

Any improvement today? Hope so!

No fever so far this morning or headache! Just aches/tiredness. So I think that's a decent improvement!

Wonderful news!

 

[Callender Girl]

Hope you are continuing to improve!

I think pedialyte saved me, I couldn't bring myself to eat or drink and my husband had to sit with me and make me finish a glass. I had it when it first hit the US and my state and the health department made it clear that I wasn't welcome at the hospital. I tested positive for Influenza B at the same time, which I had never had before. Vicks salve helped my breathing a lot but it felt more like my diaphragm was paralyzed than my lungs being gunked up. I think mucinex helped keep them clear. People bought out pulse oximeters and when family was finally able to get an oxygen measuring device to me nearly a month after falling ill I felt like I had turned a corner and my oxygen was at 88%. My lungs, liver, kidneys and eyes were damaged but I made it!!!
I'm hearing that the newer strains for the virus aren't causing that much damage and I hope it's true. Please take good care of yourself and utilize electrolytes, expectorants and get lots of rest!! The cold/flu medicines that make you sleepy are the best because sleep is what will help you kick this.

Little changes happen from time to time that make me realize even after over 2 years that my body is still healing and it makes me so happy to be reminded that the damage might not be forever. I hope you feel better soon!!!
