I'm officially on day 4 of COVID-19

[Millennial_Messiah]

Tested positive today. Day 4 of symptoms. The worst part by far is the sore throat-- it's the worst sore throat I've had since I had the swine flu back in early 2009. I've also had general malaise, body aches, some headaches, some coughing and upset stomach.

I just started the Z-Pak yesterday afternoon (5-day azithromycin), the initial 2 tablet dose yesterday around 5pm just before dinner. We'll see how it goes.

[Joseph Kony]

it's just a cold though, get over it Andy

[Trainwreck2100]

are you vaccinated? I assume not, because you're taking a zpak

[Thread]

Good thoughts & prayers for you, M_M. You're a stout fellow with a swell heart.

My uncle is vaxxed & boosted, just got covid, and took a zpak. Now what?

I don't talk to him that much and won't be asking him a damn thing. That's good to know though. :tu

Btw, he was back out golfing and feeling fine 2 days later while my aunt is still sick. She never got a zpak though.

I believe he's 70 and his wife is right behind him at 68.

[koriwhat]

Btw my lady's mother just got covid too and she is vaxxed+boosted up as well. She seems to be doing fine but I have no clue if she's taken anything. Her sister died a month ago from a heart attack not even 4 weeks after her 2nd vax shot; who knows if that vax has anything to do with that death but who knows?

Could one of the basketball team girls rub some Vaseline on you?

You don't have to mention wrapped on a peg.

[Millennial_Messiah]

are you vaccinated? I assume not, because you're taking a zpak

Nope, no fauci shots, and yes I am taking a zpak, the main difficulty is avoiding spitting or coughing up within an hour or so of taking the azithromycin pill so it doesn't go to waste.

[Millennial_Messiah]

I would avoid the mRNA covid vaccines at all costs right now.

I'm feeling quite a bit better, general malaise feeling is gone, fever is gone, headache is gone. All that's left is still the nasty sore throat (it's still incredibly painful to swallow) and queasy stomach. Like I had major diarrhea this morning and after dinner tonight I feel like I need to do so again tonight but it's not coming out. Maybe I'll sleep on it. Who knows.

I'm also taking: purple mucinex liquid stuff (expensive but it works to ease throat a bit and stop cough), vitamin C (lots of it), acetaminophen (probably too much), dayquil, and then klonopin to sleep. Along with orange juice and very spicy food in attempt to destroy the mucus causing my sore throat.

[Millennial_Messiah]

zpak/zithromax/azithromycin is an antibiotic, not an anti inflammatory. IMO azithromycin is BY FAR the best antibiotic that kills URIs swiftly, from my experience. The other ones like amoxicillin, augmentin, cefdinir, ofloxacin, and doxycyclene just don't work well if at all for that purpose. They're fine for preventing infections after surgery, but I would always recommend azithromycin (5 day Z-Pak) for post nasal drip / URI / bronchitis conditions.

It is an antibiotic, but because it's an antibiotic it does fuckall to treat COVID. It's prescribed to keep your immune system from killing you and your lungs. Because one of us side effects is being an anti inflammatory.

The main thing is it kills that evil green, yellow, orange, brown and black throat mucus from festering in the throat and chest and making my life miserable. So god bless whoever invented azithromycin, it's the greatest thing on earth.

You probably had Delta, which is worse because it attacked the lungs and lower bronchial tubes first. Mine was Omicron because it attacked my throat first and had minimal lasting effects after about day 5. I was able to celebrate NYE and have my traditional New Year's Day dinner (rare top sirloin, butter-soaked lobster tail, fried oysters, fried shrimp, shrimp cocktail, crab linguine alfredo, crab-cake stuffed flounder, and créme sauteed sea scallops - ~$100 once-a-year dinner) last night. It was amazing. And now we have a cold front in Texas and it's cool outside - my favorite weather by far. Life is good. :tu

I'm surprised you the conspiracy guy took the fauci jabs.

I'm proudly in the category of immunized, but never vaxxed.

:toast

[Millennial_Messiah]

Take mucinex extra strength liquid gels that are for 4 hours. I repeat 4 hours for the sore throat. Take some antibiotics too for the sore throat even if you had covid. The sore throat is from mucus running down to throat.

All of this is true. The z-pak clears the post-nasal drip that hardens into throat mucus and causes sore throat. Although the mucinex purple liquid is far more effective than any of the pills for the same purpose, from experience. I swallow some of that expensive, disgusting purple liquid every 4-6 hours or so. It tastes awful, but does its job far better than the gels or hard pills.

Best part of this post is the data showing an overwhelming majority of sinus infections and uri being viral, as well as the data showing z packs do absolutely nothing these days due to resistance that likely stemmed from over prescribing.

That's absolute junk science and the sad part is that about half the doctors including 7/10 of the remote teladocs actually believe in this crap because the medical schools are in bed with BigPharma and azithromycin is a low profit drug similar to hydroxychloroquine.

I didn't take a single antibiotic or zpak until May 2013, at the age of 19. I had 28 separate colds/URIs throughout high school [not a typo], and was absolutely miserable about half the time... literally. 26 out of 28 of those were freshman/sophomore/junior year of HS combined.

Youll still get omicron and still get the mild/weird symptoms

But I dont fully disagree w u. Vax helps a bit and booster only for sick or old. A booster on healthy/young ppl is a complete waste. Save them for the poor countries.

This definitely ain't the OG COVID strain I had in 2019, but definitely no joke. I'm thankful it has impacted my lungs minimally. I had two different colds hit me a couple months back within a two week span and I had way worse lung symptoms I ended up going to the ER just to get my lungs looked at. Just really have no energy with this illness and a mild productive cough..

I've noticed two strange symptoms with this.. lower back pain in one spot right in my spine, and both elbow joints. No reason for either to be sore.

I can expect this shit twice a year until my kids are out of public school too :toast

It's centrally planned and has been from the beginning when it was manufactured in the Wuhan lab. Wake up and open your eyes to the truth.

I am on the side of schooling should be done remotely though none of this hybrid crab until covid is over. Remote education is far more efficient than, and superior to, outdated in-person schooling anyway. My grades were always far better when I got to take courses online. Why? More self paced learning is far better for a child to actually learn things as opposed to the standard bell schedule grind which does nothing but tire out and spaz out kids' minds.... and spread disease and propaganda. I don't understand why the Republicans are on the side of "bring people back to school at all costs" crap. It makes zero sense.

More self paced learning is far better for a child to actually learn things as opposed to the standard bell schedule grind which does nothing but tire out and spaz out kids' minds.... and spread disease and propaganda. I don't understand why the Republicans are on the side of "bring people back to school at all costs" crap. It makes zero sense.
Because kids (grade school kids, not college) need socialization. They also need structure to get them used to what most are going to face as an adult. Childhood depression/anxiety has skyrocketed since COVID, that's mostly due to being stuck at home. And many have fallen behind their grade level. So to say a third-grader who lives in a home with two working parents (or a single parent home) is going to adequately "self pace" themselves through school is complete bullshit.

All that said... I think online school should still be an option for families that are able to do it and wish to. I also think masks should remain mandatory inside the classroom for now. My kids went to school in-person last year and nobody got sick. This year with mandates lifted one of them is bringing something home every couple of months.

This definitely ain't the OG COVID strain I had in 2019, but definitely no joke. I'm thankful it has impacted my lungs minimally. I had two different colds hit me a couple months back within a two week span and I had way worse lung symptoms I ended up going to the ER just to get my lungs looked at. Just really have no energy with this illness and a mild productive cough..

I've noticed two strange symptoms with this.. lower back pain in one spot right in my spine, and both elbow joints. No reason for either to be sore.

I can expect this shit twice a year until my kids are out of public school too :toast

I had it around Christmas, only lasted 4-5 days but on two of those I had to wear my reading glasses to work on my computer, which has never happened before. Went away, thankfully.

Amen, Lee, and to all the fellows here who have put their stories onto these pages. You're all fine fellows who show the way in dealing with this pandemic and its' impact upon you and the families you conduct with.

I-see-you. You're heroes, one & all.

The problem is the kids not getting to decide. I know 100% if I were a kid in such a situation I would not wear a mask ever to the extent I'd get sent home. I'd demand a remote education (such as K12), homeschooling, or at the very least to be put in a private school district or other school district that doesn't require masks. Masks just make life miserable.

I'm not going to be one of those that say masks are completely useless because that isn't true either. But even as someone who literally contracted 28 upper respiratory viruses (colds) in 4 years in high school, and was sick with a URI roughly 40-45% of the time. I don't know, but I was probably one of the hardest hit high school kids in San Antonio and in the country in terms of sheer number of separate times I got sick. I wouldn't trade the other 60-65% of the time where I was for wearing a mask 100% of the time, for the world, even if it meant never catching a cold, or say only catching a cold 2 or 3 times in 4 years instead of 28 times.

I was high school valedictorian but I also was the type of kid who couldn't stand being told what to do and I wouldn't. I wasn't little mister goodie two-shoe. I was suspended once and put in in-school-suspension six times. And I wouldn't have wanted it any other way. I believe students should have the right to choose.

As far as the childhood anxiety, depression, etc from loneliess... you are correct on that account, but having to go and socially interact with a mask covering your face 100% of the time is honestly worse than no social interaction. You take away the element of looking good and feeling good. You end up with miserable social interaction. Out of the three choices, if you can't have fully social maskless interaction due to a pandemic, it's better to just interact online through webex/skype/zoom/MS teams calls.

Yes, my girl returned from vacation and tested positive before her flight. We slept in the same bed but didn't kiss for a few days. I sprayed and wiped stuff down. All I felt was fatigue for a few hours a couple times but stayed true to my routine - fitness and eating well. No cough. Eyes felt tired like I had spent all day at the beach. In general I don't believe I've been hit with Covid since the initial winter when I had a really bad fever.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Turn up AC a couple degrees higher. 2 or 3 and see if you cough less.

I seem to do better when it's colder. On Friday night before the wind came it was a warmish night and I woke up at 3am with an extremely plugged nose and stuff. It's dead smack middle of winter and I had to actually turn the AC on temporarily. Today is like ideal weather. No AC needed.

[leemajors]

Humidifier would be best, but he's dumb.

[Millennial_Messiah]

I have one of those ones where you have to keep putting water in and it sort of mists. I don't think dry air is the problem, though.

[Millennial_Messiah]

I do bad with outside air. Turn up heater to 79 or 80 and you'll stop coughing as much. You'r lungs get colder easier when you have or are sick.
And I'll be completely stuffed up in the sinuses and sweating and overall miserable. No thanks.

I'm on day 6 and the fever is now an issue where it wasn't in the first couple of days. The symptoms are all over the place it's weird.

[DJR210]

That's insane.. If the temp inside goes any higher than 68 or so it's unbearable hot it seems

[DJR210]

It's a shame that politics have influenced our handling of this pandemic that has the power to affect every person no matter of who they vote for. Even wearing a mask there is still a risk that a kid can spread COVID, but it's still a small measure that can help mitigate the spread. The district needs to foot some of the blame too because they basically said fuck it and stopped doing anything to prevent the spread. NISD had protective barriers between students which have all but been removed from the classroom (except one little bastard in my kids class who has them not to have protection from the kid next to them breathing all up on them but instead because their dumb fuck parents created a make believe health issue that prevents them from wearing a mask) and I see no social distancing of any kind.

Your back issue is spot on with worldwide symptoms.

I will ask a question that you of course do not have to answer but it would help me clear some things up with others.
Did you have any sort of lung problems before this, or smoke a good deal before all this?

You're being dramatic. Did you throw a fit about having to wear a shirt and shoes to school? Kids handled mask mandates way better than most of the whinny adults have. But given the choice of course they'll take them off because they don't fully grasp the conveniences.

[Millennial_Messiah]

That's insane.. If the temp inside goes any higher than 68 or so it's unbearable hot it seems

Agreed. 68 is my upper limit for inside... 75 (without humidity) for outside or 65 plus humidity.

Thank goodness I left NISD far behind in 2013, tbh.

Day 4 of omnicron for me

Think I've cleared the worst of it. Didn't feel any worse than any other flu I've had (never got the OG rona) except for the lower back pain. Congestion, fatigue, and some chills but not much other than that. No fever or cough really.

[Millennial_Messiah]

I'm still having the occasional cough especially after drinking some generic walmart imodium green liquid today. I had a bad stomach this morning and now the cough is coming back. I'm still avoiding overexterting my left arm/left side too much and no more basketball for at least another week. Need a good night's sleep.

No lung issues. I don't smoke tobacco at all, I do smoke weed though. I usually just take a couple bong hits and that's it

Man.. don't jinx it. I thought the same thing day 3 and here i am like 7 days later and still feel like I'm not 100%. Days 6-8 ended up being the worst just for the fatigue and body aches, plus i started getting fevers when I was asleep

[DJR210]

In other news, the dumb fucks over at NISD just decided to go back to a mask mandate after omicron has already ravaged their staff, students and families. Fucking morons also had the schools closed because it was 38 degrees. Morons.

I went back to work today. New guidelines are you are good to return 5 days after symptoms, if your symptoms have improved. I know a good amount of family/coworkers that have had a similar experience with omnicron. You might just be one of the unlucky ones.

It's not just NISD, it's all the school districts in SA. Closed school on a random Thursday where it was upper 30s and cloudy but then it rained later in the evening and made people go to school on the Friday morning where there was actually some ice on the road... dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb. That's the public sector of America for you, in full display.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Abolish the public sector, tbh. Save lives... privatize education, subsidize healthcare. America has it bass-ackwards.

The weather was just a bullshit excuse. They closed because of COVID/staffing problems, just like the day after MLK.
