disgruntled...

My wife has COVID-19 and I have been exposed. I'm feeling fine, hoping my vax from September/October last year helps. My wife and her sister did not get vaxed... my wife has just come down with symptoms, but her sister has been very sick since last Friday... the irony is my wife saw the doctor today, but my sister-in-law hasn't seen a doctor yet. I'll miss the poetry reading/social this Friday :( ... and everything else for a while I guess. COVID-19: The gift that just keeps giving. Prayers please.

Ta ! (short for tarradiddle),
tailor

[Danik 2016]

Oh, so sorry! Going to pray for your wife and your sister in love. Hope they get better soon. On forgets to take the shots these days because never one does anymore, but they are very important. I hope you stay well. You do well to stay away from meeting other people. Do you have the possibility of online meetings.

hopeful

[tailor STATELY]

No one does online meetings here anymore... just going to hunker down with Tinky and hope the Zicam I started yesterday as a prophylactic will help with my almost year-old vax... good time to write poetry :)

[Danik 2016]

How are you all today?

[tailor STATELY]

Just woke up after the crack of noon... fuzzy headed and the body aches have started. Had a coughing fit before bed which is new. Have my taste and smell still (just took a Zicam which is just for cold symptoms but the gummies are yummy; they smell not too unpleasant). My wife called just after I took the "Do Not Disturb" function off my cell phone trying to get something coherent out of me... they are/are not going to get prescriptions that are ready (I have some Metformin ready) and what am I doing?... still fuzzy headed but I'm in better shape than my wife and her sister... I may go out if they decide not to, maybe find a place that can give me a booster (will have to call around... no COVID protocol in place that I know of). Read yesterday that the most popular COVID strain currently has a side effect of "razor blade" throat... eeesh (just added eeesh to my Dictionary). I see them circling, them

Buzzards

[Danik 2016]

Don't take any medicine, it's not a cold you have got. Drink much water. What I remember is that the great danger is if the illness atacks the lungs and breathing becomes more difficult. Try eating as well as possible even if you don't feel like it. I hope there is someone to take you to hospital if necessary. But I hope you will all be well in a few days. Keep me updated!

parrots

[tailor STATELY]

When I thought it might be a cold that was going around the Zicam seemed prudent, though expensive. I've since read that zinc may be helpful with COVID duration, studies are a bit murky though, and Zicam is full of it. Waiting to see if my provider okays some Paxlovid for me and if it's covered by insurance, but I will be driving to get prescriptions anyway whether or no. Updates will follow :)

Macaw

[Danik 2016]

Don't know any of these medicines, but selfmedication can be very dangerous in cases of serious deasises. Is this provider a sort of doctor at a distance?
Two things occur to me: certain medicines inhibit certain symptoms but don't cure the illness. Respiratory illnesses usually follow a cycles of days, but if you have breathing difficulties you must see the doctor.

The Paxlovid interacts with my meds so another was ordered... now on backorder though (kind'a defeats the purpose).

[Danik 2016]

Is someone orienting you about the medicin?

Yes, my caregiver.

confiture

[tailor STATELY]

Woke up later today, fed Tinky, spent a penny, and switched on LitNet on the PC... actually feel no change. My Sister-in-law tested positive for COVID yesterday... she's been sick for a week now and I had been visiting and watching the telly while she hacked and coughed (while my wife pretty much just slept) every night until last night. I have to go out today... luckily I will have no contact with anyone, God willing, but I will wear gloves and a mask just in case and have a generous supply of hand sanitizer.

confiddle

[Danik 2016]

Hope you are all better today!Going out a bit into the garden if the weather is fine might do good. And nourishing food and lots of water.
confidence

Peter seems to be sick too. He wrote one post and then disappeared again?

[tailor STATELY]

Throat just a little worse, same with breathing, body aches no worse... started the anti-viral, prescription came in yesterday and I had to go out in public, got to the pharmacy 10-minutes before it closed... distancing and mask. Have to go out again today... but no contact as I planned yesterday... will wear mask anyway... not planning on church tomorrow :( Wife and Sister-in-law looked and sounded better yesterday... picked up my Sister-in-law's anti-viral also yesterday; not sure why my wife's caregiver hasn't prescribed anything further - she's the highest at risk.

Hoping Peter is well.

Hope

[Danik 2016]

If breathing is worse you should see the doctor, tailor and check on your lungs. Covid is very treacherous. I remember cases during pandemics that seemed quite well during pandemics and then had to be taken to the intensive station.
Hoping and praying for the best for you, your wife and your sister in love.
Also for Peter L

Recovery

[tailor STATELY]

Thank you for your prayers. Perhaps you're right... Monday if 'things' worsen.

prudence

[Danik 2016]

If your breathing gets worse I would see a doctor immediately and check on the lungs! Monday may be too late. I suppose your hospital is open on Sunday too.

care

[tailor STATELY]

Yes, it's open... We'll see tomorrow if it's necessary.

Deseret

Thanx. Good info. Currently taking Lagevrio (Molnupiravir). Feeling a bit better today, still have a hinky throat and lungs - maybe only a niggle, I can still tell the difference between normal and now... did not go to church though and will not go to FHE tomorrow night. My wife and her sister seem to be getting better - they spent some time outdoors today. I went out yesterday with gloves and mask and interacted with more people than I desired (6) and got in 7000 steps in short stages. Taking the Sabbath Day of rest to heart... sorely missed taking the sacrament and being with my fellow brothers and sisters... missed a Linger Longer luncheon after Sunday School too :(

Be well... be safe.

[Danik 2016]

How are you today? The good thing is that you have now medication against Covid in U S. Don't know whether we have these medicines here.


dessert

[tailor STATELY]

I would think the anti-virals are readily available if prescribed.

Lungs are clearing, a bit of a headache, didn't get any quality of sleep it seems, a crick in my lower back, a bit fuzzy minded... still not going to FHE tonight though I seem to be on the uptick. Thank you for asking... and you ?

tesseract

[Danik 2016]

I don't know if they are available here. My sister had covid last year and she didn't take any medication. Yours is the first case I hear of covid treatment with medicine.

I'm glad your health is improving, but you have to have some more patience. Your provider probably can tell you when you can lift quarantine and see other people. I am fine, thanks, trying to avoid colds by soaring and fal.ing temperatures.

tessiture

[tailor STATELY]

I will be patient.

Google AI: "Antiviral drugs for COVID-19 treat active infections by blocking the virus from multiplying in the body. They are most effective for patients at high risk of severe illness and must be started within the first few days of symptom onset. The most common COVID-19 antivirals are Paxlovid, Lagevrio (molnupiravir), and Veklury (remdesivir).
How COVID-19 antivirals work
Antivirals work by interfering with the virus's ability to copy itself, which lowers the amount of virus in the body and helps prevent the illness from worsening."
"Paxlovid (nirmatrelvir and ritonavir):
Nirmatrelvir blocks a key enzyme that the virus needs to make copies of itself.
Ritonavir boosts the levels of nirmatrelvir in the body, allowing it to work longer.
***Lagevrio (molnupiravir):
This drug works by introducing errors into the virus's genetic code, preventing it from effectively replicating.
Veklury (remdesivir):
This is an intravenous (IV) treatment that blocks the virus's ability to make copies of its genetic material. "
"Who is eligible for COVID-19 antivirals?
Antiviral medications are not for everyone who tests positive for COVID-19. They are prescribed to non-hospitalized patients with mild-to-moderate symptoms who are at high risk for severe illness."

tessellate

[Danik 2016]

Thanks for this research, tailor. it gave me an idea. I'm going to check in the pharmacies near my home if they have any of these anti virals and which of them.

Judging by your posts, you must be feeling much better. :)
