Quoting: keybored Are the doctors lying about what is causing this outbreak and is it related to or in fact, the coronavirus and they are just not saying? Or do they not know because they aren't testing for it so are just assuming? I've had it for over almost 6 weeks now and it's still not fully gone. Symptoms include - Hot and chills Nonstop coughing 24 hours for days Difficulty breathing Feeling absolutely exhausted when doing the slightest thing Bad throat infection Sweating at night enough to drench all the way through to the matress Seeming to improve slightly then knocked back down the next day No medication is helping Every single person I have spoken to says this is not like anything they have ever had before. 2 Xmas’s ago I thought I was at deaths door, coughing until I collapsed, couldn’t breath, fever, couldn’t eat lost 25lbs within 3 weeks. Sweating thru the bed every night then dehydrated all day. At one point I I could feel my bones poking thru my fingers. This was the first Xmas since separating with my wife around thanksgiving. Not only was this the lowest point of my life personally I was sicker than I had ever been in my 40 years on earth. 3 courses of Antibiotics and steroids and I Finally felt better 2 months later in February. That's the one. |

In January, my husband had the bug and he tested negative. Spoke to a doctor friend the other day and he's convinced both my husband and I had covid. He said he believes that hundreds of thousands if not millions of us in the US have had covid and that it has been around since last Fall. |
Louis in Richmond That is my arm now; broken for 7 months User ID: 73238748 United States 08/10/2020 10:52 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Now I am just getting over requiring sixteen to eighteen hours sleep per day which began at the end of May. Again no fever just body-encompassing aches. No antibiotics given, just lots of sleep, an anti-inflammatory taken with three aspirin, the Albuterol inhaler, and rest. Until your military service has required you neutralize enemy combatants and invaders in the defense of your country, don't presume to tell us that have defended you that you don't support every shot we fired to eliminate that enemy. |
