Had it didn’t know I had it till I was over it
First of August or thereabouts I got tired after my five mile walks in the morning in the low to mid 90 Deg F range and started taking a nap for one to two hours in the afternoon.
I am 74 and I know lots of folks that take naps so did not think anything about it.
Then we went to Tennessee for a week and checked in on Thursday and temp was 97.1, next morning at update I was 97.4. and on Saturday I went to bed at 10, woke up at 4:00AM soaking wet and felt OK. I couldn’t figure out why. Went back to bed, woke up and 6:00. Wife said to take temp so I did using two digital thermometers and was 97.5 on one and 97.4 on the other one. Still felt OK.
On Monday AM I realized I was feeling great and went for a walk that started out with a 30 degree grade and was short of breath. I normally walk at 305 ft elevation and where I was is about 1800 feet. I had to stop 4 times and catch my breath four times in the first 100 yards of the grade. Second day I stopped twice, by 3rd day I was fine and we went out to eat
Had fried shrimp, they had no taste and I just passed it off they were old???? We were coming home next morning and at 2AM I got up for coolant offload and on a lark I pulled up CDC website and read the symptoms and had already had four of them.
On the way home we stopped for lunch and I had chicken salad and I could not taste it. Wife gave me steak, could not taste that. Had chocolate cake for dessert and could not take that.
At supper could not taste anything. Was gassing up car, splashed gas on myself and could not smell that. I went and got tested and was “100% clear”.
Three days later the diarrhea hit me hard for several days but felt fine “and cleaned out”!.
Still can’t taste anything. Guy I know has had it and hasn’t tasted anything in three months and worst I have heard so far is 7 months.
Four months previously a Doc friend I used to compete against in shooting competition wrote all his shooting buddies and said to take:
1000 MG Vitamin C
1000 MG Vitamin D3
200 MG Zinc
Daily to help combat the crud and I had bought bottles of above in 400/500 quantity for about $50.00 for over a year’s supply. Wife had been taking them as well and we were together the whole time and she had no symptoms at all and still has taste.
Saw this the other day and found it very interesting:
