Ok so after reading up about the antibody tests, apparently within a few months of having COVID you might test negative.

I am wondering for those that had it, including you and me, if we have to wait longer to feel better, like a year or something. Although I do not want to wait a year to ride my bike again. Unfortunately, anything to do with breathing, like walking, etc, sets me back a week til breathing is better again. I need to try one of those wheelchair carts so I can go grocery shopping again. I am just afraid I might run over people and crash into things.

Ha ha!

I pushed through it and have been mountain biking and hiking again, but I splurged on an Ebike for some extra help up the single track steep trails around here. My cough has lasted all winter and I still have it and lung congestion that I didn't have before, but it's getting better. I felt like I had asthma all the time for a long while and I had some very bad internal issues as well, like I thought my spleen was rupturing or something...never felt that kind of pain...didn't go to doctors because everything was shut down by then.

My first 'flu' was in November and the second was in late January and one of those was the normal flu probably. Washoe County (Reno) schools were closing in November because everyone was sick with a mystery coughing illness...hmmmm....

Harvard did a satellite study of Wuhan, China and said they could see a run on hospitals in August....I don't ever believe the mainstream narrative and like to think out of the box so...

I really hope you can start to get out in nature again. I don't even feel alive if I'm not outside everyday. Maybe an inhaler would help? Oh and I bought some liposomal Vitamin C and have been using one of those each day plus a zinc lozenge and other natural supplements.

My flu started on Jan.19, that is when I knew I was sick, so it probably started before that. The worst symptoms lasted 25 days and I was still coughing on Mar. 4, although it wasn't as bad as before, it was finally easing up so I could actually lay down to sleep with doctor prescribed cough syrup. When in the throes of the sickness, I could not lay down at all. I had to kind of prop myself on the sofa, with my legs on the floor, and a warm cozy throw around me and I just lay there, propped up, in a daze for weeks.

I will check out that liposomal vitamin C. I am eating a lot of steamed greens with balsamic, it helps open up the airways and the arteries. But still, just walking in the store, it gets me bad. Fine at home as long as I do not do much. This too shall pass I do believe. I just hope it does.

That is terrible you are still so weak. No wonder you are feeling down.

We survived though!

You will heal up and be out running around again soon

Something other covid-19?

I am pretty sure it was the current virus. Because I had most of the symptoms, although some were slightly different. A few were just bizarre. And while I did lose my sense of smell and taste initially, it came back, but was worse as things I didn't mind before scent-wise, smelled worse than before. And the taste has changed where some things I liked, I do not like anymore. They call it hyperosmia. Some people will lose the senses, some will have hyper senses. Weird, but true. I am still stuck with that.

Good evening Las Vegas, North Las Vegas and other parts of the valley. I am feeling so much better today. I hope you are all as well. I am breathing! That means I am alive. That is a good thing. Have a great week!

In other words, a person no longer has immunity to covid-19? A negative result means its not there.
