Not much I can say mate.
I hope you get well soon and recover speedily. It sounds like you have a powerful case of CV and it is insane how varied the intensity of symptoms can be from person to person.
I'm clearly uneasy about the asthma element and need to get that under control. I'm trying not to exert myself at all, but the restricted airways and heaviness feeling in my chest is unavoidable as is. It creates an entirely unpredictable element to this for me which is life-threatening
Absolutely! And that would be my main reason for saying to try not being too strong and silent, if the breathing issues get any worse m8, call the ER if it gets any worse.
Much love, and healing m8
Thanks man. The new inhaler has finally helped me feel like things are under control (Advair), but I'm still coughing regularly and my chest is heavy. It's hard to know what % is asthma-related and what might not be, but I feel like I've leveled out by day 5 here. I'm mainly cold, weak and achy, with little appetite, but more than tolerable. The feverish symptoms subsided by the start of day 3, so I think it'll be uptrend from now on as long as my chest cooperates.
Ironically, people have it (if it's what I have) far worse when asthma is involved, so while this has sucked and been uneasy, I'm able to breath on my own. I continue to watch and listen closely, and constantly rest to allow my body to keep fighting.
This is promising! Over here people with asthma are told to really evaluate themselves as high risk and act accordingly... I was worried for you is all m8.
It sounds like you're right on top of that shit anyway so I won't start trying to give advice where it's not needed bro 😉
Good stuff, you'll KO this CV bitch in no time. Positive attitude is a kicker to healing many people don't see. Mentality in approaching these challenges can really effect the outcome.
I'm using meditation a lot and slamming my body with heat at the moment, which seems to be having good effects... but my symptoms aren't anywhere near as bad as what you're describing, although I do recognize the exhaustion, fever and cough (but my cough fades as the day goes on). T
The whole thing is FUBAR... but it will pass, and a new breeze will blow spring into summer and all this pandemic madness will be a memory.
Thinking of you Matt. Keepin it real on the other side of the pond 💪👊
