boltnrun Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 I'm hoping you all have very mild cases and are feeling better very soon. My doctor recommended vitamins and lots of fluids. 1 Link to comment

Seraphim Posted September 19, 2022 Author Share Posted September 19, 2022 We all feel pretty rough, burning up and shaking and bad body pain and chills and then sweating, headaches and congestion and coughing. 4 Link to comment

I'm sorry to hear you're all not feeling well. Is it possible for you to get the medication that treats the symptoms? I forgot what it's called, but my son's spouse took it and it helped immensely. 1 Link to comment
Kwothe28 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Sorry to hear that. What is the medication that they give there? Here they give "Hemomycin" a lot and it helps. Only 3 pills because its very strong. 1 Link to comment
boltnrun Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Paxlovid. That's the medication my son's spouse took. Apparently it's very effective. But I'm not sure what's available in Canada. 1 Link to comment
Seraphim Posted September 19, 2022 Author Share Posted September 19, 2022 My doctor’s office basically shrugged and said well get better .( basically suck it up) And the clinic on base for my husband is closed for a federal holiday. Link to comment

Thanks, it is pretty rough. No one can make anything so I might ask a friend to get us canned soup and Gatorade. Link to comment

My case was relatively mild so I was able to order groceries online and pick them up contactless. Perhaps you could have a service deliver anything else you may need. Link to comment

Yeah, she just recovered from a second bout of Covid a month ago so she said she is the best candidate because she is still immune. It is spreading like wildfire on the base again. Unfortunately, the base is basically in the middle of the forest and nothing delivers but the community women are really supportive. Link to comment

I am not as bad because I had 4 shots . My husband was supposed to get his 4th this week. And my son only had 2. They are both burning up . But I am not as hot as them or at least I can’t tell. 1 Link to comment

Seraphim Posted September 19, 2022 Author Share Posted September 19, 2022 My neighbour went and got us more cold pills and Gatorade and soup and 5 boxes of tests. She got us two 24 packs of Gatorade. Link to comment

Seraphim Posted September 20, 2022 Author Share Posted September 20, 2022 Yes for sure ! Link to comment
catfeeder Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 So sorry to hear this, and I'm furious with your doctor for you. I so hope the morning will bring you some treatment options. Maybe phone a pharmacy? They're able to prescribe and dispense the covid meds here. Link to comment
boltnrun Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Any idea how you were exposed? Maybe one of the kiddos? I was infected by my nephew who lived in the same house as me. And exposed twice more, once by a close friend and once by my son and his spouse. It's not strangers who seem to be passing it around but people we know and even people we love. This virus is insidious. I'm sorry you and your family are feeling so unwell, but hopefully it is short lived. Link to comment

One of my daycare kiddos is positive though and he was coughing almost into my face Thursday and Friday. They have been allowed no mask at school anymore and full school no closures etc. Schools don’t even have to report cases, asymptomatic siblings can go to school etc. Link to comment
