Got it 2 weeks ago. Had a constant fever, horrible nerve pain in my legs that made it impossible to sleep at night for several days. Ended up going to the hospital because of chest pains, they checked me said I wasn’t having a heart attack, kept me for 4 hours then cut me loose. . Wife and our 1 year old both got it as well. Baby ran a 101-103 fever for almost two weeks.
it’ not “fake” , it’s not “just the flu”. I’m 30 years old, I work a physical job, I’m a runner and I lift. I went to Colorado and did an elk hunt two months ago where I walked 10-12 miles a day gaining and loosing several thousand feet of elevation per day. And Now I get winded going up the stairs to the second floor of my house. I tried to go hunting for whitetail this weekend and by the time I put in the effort to walk in get in my stand and walk out I felt like I had ran a half marathon.
After my family’s experience I’m terrified for what would happen to those older folks and those less in shape in my life that may get it. It’s also incredibly frustrating to now see those on social media pretending it doesn’texist.if someone walks up to me again to tell me it’s “fake news” I will not just nod and let them spew their nonsense.
My Brother had a debiltating disease (PSP) near the end he tested positive for Covid...was asymptomatic..never showed and symptoms whatsoever of covid...he passed away in June...and one of the causes of death listed was covid.
I do hope those affected share their experience.So for those of you who have been impacted, does the contact tracing help you or your friends/family know when you were infected? From what I’ve read the majority of infections are happening in restaurants and the like. Where and how did you get it if you don’t mind sharing
hospitals are starting to let covid positive asymptomatic staff work with COVID patients because they have too many staff in quarantine
Sorry to hear that. I'll be praying for your family.My brother passed away yesterday morning at Saint Anthony hospital in Crown Point. He was 64. He had COPD and lung cancer. He was dealing with the COPD staying active having a portable oxygen with him that he didn't always use. He was very recently diagnosed with cancer. He had only had one chemo treatment. He got a fever, was feeling bad and went to the hospital. He tested positive for covid. He passed away in ICU on a respirator about five days later.
I remember you posting this before. Still praying for your family as well.I lost my dad to it in April.
He was a heavy smoker but he lived on a farm and was very strong for his age.
He was 77 years old. He went to the hospital on a weekend and died the following Thursday.
I was able to get to see him for an hour on Tuesday and he said he didn't feel that bad but he was having trouble breathing.
He was on room oxygen, no ventilator.
I have been around people who have tested positive and I have a messed up immune system but I haven't gotten it yet.
Stay safe everyone and prayers for all of you.
Dan

I'm sorry. This is a tough time to lose someone.My brother passed away yesterday morning at Saint Anthony hospital in Crown Point. He was 64. He had COPD and lung cancer.

Thank you. It's been pretty hard on me but I'm still taking care of his place and his little dog lives with us now and she is happy as can be.
She always loved seeing the kids so she fit in easily.
