Who’s had Covid?

[Slick8]

Matt, Great to hear you're doing better. That sounded like a rough ride for sure.

I know one person that has had it. He is 40ish, moderately decent shape.....it was like having the flu for him. What is crazy is that his wife nor his two young daughters contracted it. He said the worst thing was being away from his family for 15 days and not getting to see them. For being so contagious, it is weird how this could happen. It doesnt seem to follow the rules, or at least those we have been warned about.

A good friend from work had the same issue. He caught it and was around several people just before symptoms popped up. No one else tested pos.

Ive gone through a ton of water. I ordered 4 more 32 count cases and had several already. And TP. Been ****ting like a pet coon. Ordered a bunch of Gatorade too. You get real dehydrated real fast. That’s all I can recommend at this point. Hoping and praying it’s all uphill from here.

Get some electrolit. The lemon lime flavor is the best. Tastes better than pedialyte too! When I was extremely sick in January with all the symptoms, it helped tremendously!

All that sugar is hard on your gut. There may not be a sugar-free version of tonic water. But you can get sugar-free electrolyte powder instead of Gatorade. This is the one I use every day (for keto).

I offered some D to the wife. Said it was important to her health. No dice. Dang rona!

Sounds like you're on the mend from the 'rona and not gonna die from it after all.

Never was gonna die I don’t think haha. Just mad as hell that our medical system can be so worthless.

FYI we’ve tried to take minimal sugars. Gatorade we got has zero sugar. Idk how much of each rumor about the rona is true. But I followed some of it.

I can't ever seem to get a straight answer. Surprised they didn't refer you to 12 different specialist 6 months out and hopefully you lived in between.

Hope you and the family are finally on the up tick and getting through it with as little discomfort as possible.

how much gin did you add to the tonic water?

Last Dec right before Christmas Riley came down with the "crud". Fever, no appetite, tired and horrible cough. Took her to the Dr no flu no strep just "flu like virus going around and takes 3-4 weeks to run its course" Dr wouldn't prescribe her the Z-pack so I had my brother go to Mexico and get us both some since we were leaving on Christmas Vacation soon. 2 weeks later or so I got "it" . Dr said no flu, no strep but flu like virus. I had him Prescribe me the Z-pack even though he at first said no. The first 24-36 hrs I felt like hell...chills to high fever to chills. Could hardly breathe and used my inhaler more in 2 days than I normally would in a year....the 2nd day I probably slept 20 hrs. I had a horrible chest pains and hard breathing for 2-3 weeks. I went through 2 inhalers. After I got over it Rileys Stepdad got it and same thing. Ex got a bit of it but it wasn't as bad. I don't know what we all got but all 4 of our Drs said the same thing not flu or strep but flu like.

Brandon...go get the antibody test and you'll know if what you had was covid. It takes no time, a finger *****, and you'll have the results within 20 minutes.

You can get sugar free tonic water but it tastes horrible...wife found it at HEB.

I have thought about it but until I can be assured I won't be part of this Contact tracing experiment I want no part of it.

Something I drink everyday. A) Because I like it, and B) for hydration & Vitamin C.

- 1/3 Water (Hydration)

- 1/3 Orange Gatorade - Zero Sugar (Hydration)

- 1/3 Cranberry Juice (Vitamin C, plus good for your kidneys)

For you guys drinking the tonic water, how much are you all drinking per day?
Glad your feeling better Trophy8!
