Hope that helps your wife, and glad you are improving!Wife goes in for the mono-clonal antibodies tomorrow. She’s suffering worse right now. My fevers are gone, aches and pains are gone. Just some chest congestion left for me.

I think it's absurd to not give infusion based on vitals. The goal is to stop from getting worse by inactivating virus, right? Really as long as it's before day 10 I think everyone with risks should get it.My aunt and uncle, in their 70s, but previously basically healthy, are in separate hospitals with Covid right now. My uncle is doing better and is in a smaller community hospital due to O2 levels. Hopefully he doesn't get worse. My aunt was a bit worse off, earlier and is in a larger regional hospital. She was going to get the infusion, but her O2 was too low. They are hoping to stabilize her with a better level, then get her the infusion.
Don't forget zincWell apparently I’ve found the limits if na thrall immunity. Had it match 2020, tested positive this morning. Symptoms are by far less severe than last year, there’s no elephant on my chest this time around.
So with that out of the way, we are on vitamin C, D3, and a couple other things the wife’s school clinic sent home with her. Lots of fluids and we are making sure we get up and move around every hour or so. Any other home brew remedies y’all recommend?
I might have to give that remedy a trial run1 oz each of Fireball, lemon juice, and honey mixed into 16 oz hot green tea. Basically a hot toddy with a cinnamon kick. Worked wonders for me when I had it.
I hear ya. Covid brain is a thing. I was talking to a vendor yesterday and after responding to 1 of two points I had to ask him to ask the question again. LOL. (minor symptoms, no fever, but positive test. vaxxed. ) Im able to work from home at 70% efficiency.I’m fairly certain I have it at this point. Had a fever of 102, oxygen went down to 94. Been drinking pedialite, and water. Also taking NyQuil and DayQuil. Idk if that helps with Covid but I’m doing my best. Anyone have any suggestions on food a man can make alone and quickly? I threw up a pb&j. So far the best I can come up with is sweet potatoes. It feels unsafe for me to drive. I got a can of soup planned for tomorrow. I’m sure food is subjective but with this minor sore throat I won’t even eat corn bread. Somewhere in my late 20’s I lost the ability to eat eggs and dairy despite how delicious it is.
Also my mind is all over the place sorry. But do I need to worry about my dog catching it from me? He can’t make his own food or let himself out. I don’t want him getting sick. It’s also next to impossible to keep him from being close to me.

We have been eating quite a bit of boxed chicken noodle soup. Takes Just few minutes to fix and feels good on the sore throat. Instant oatmeal and granola bars, oranges, grilled cheese, crackers.I’m fairly certain I have it at this point. Had a fever of 102, oxygen went down to 94. Been drinking pedialite, and water.

Im at 98-99 o2 today no fever. Still fatigued, cough and muscle pain. The last 3 days 50% of the day I’m writing my obit. The other 50% I’m not feeling that bad except minor cough etc. has anyone else experienced this? Thank you for your concern. I remember hearing tigers were catching Covid so didn’t know how it worked with dogs.I hear ya. Covid brain is a thing.

I'm not a doc, but I too bought a Pulse ox proactively and was looking into it to know when its time to call the doc. If your level drops below 94, CALL YOUR DOCTOR, YOU ARE IN TROUBLE. The charts Ive seen say that is when it gets dangerous. You are already in the watch zone.
Stay safe.
I appreciate that, I however live as far north of Indy as you can get in this state. I ordered a really expensive yuppie shake today that’s supposed to be a meal replacement. It’s no shamrock shake but I suppose it’s healthier.Prayers sent for everyone to get well (including the OP and his wife).
kickbacked, where in Indy do you live? If you're fairly close to me I'd be happy to bring by some canned fruit or something (or fresh for that matter). Alternatively, Kroger and other stores will deliver, so don't go hungry!
Thank you for the recommendations. I don’t know how I forgot grilled cheese. I love grilled cheese.We have been eating quite a bit of boxed chicken noodle soup. Takes Just few minutes to fix and feels good on the sore throat. Instant oatmeal and granola bars, oranges, grilled cheese, crackers.
And if you feel you REALLY need electrolytes, skip gatorade and get pedialyte. (the stuff for babies) I recall in my hard partying days the guys that would get pass-out drunk during the overnight party behind the skydiving hangar (we would camp there or crash on a couch in the hangar so we didnt have to drive) would be seen wandering around with that stuff the next day. They said he got them going better than anything else.the generic vitamin/electrolyte power drink worked for me. About 2 liters of that or water per day.
That and sleep.
Hope you are better soon and symptoms are mild.
The fatigue lasted close to a week for me even after I was feeling better. Lots of naps in the recliner. And I had random cold sweats. I would wake up in bed or in my recliner just dripping in sweat.Im at 98-99 o2 today no fever. Still fatigued, cough and muscle pain. The last 3 days 50% of the day I’m writing my obit.

Thanks everyone. Apologies if I missed anything.
I'm just taking the 50 mg zinc tablets from Kroger. Their vitamins are usually bogo.Best wishes to all that are sick!
Thanks for the info.
What kind of a zinc supplement and dosage are you all taking? Link?
