Good luck OP hope you recover fully
I’ve had pneumonia twice as a result of the flu. Took me months to recover fully both times. Second time was easier because the doctor gave me two different inhaler medications.

“Just the flu”? The flu is a very serious disease.

We know how other coronaviruses/viral pneumonias are though. It is possible this can be weird or have latent effects in the body, but it would be way out of left field.

Most likely, you had a pneumonia and this can be typical after recovering from any kind of pneumonia.

Your posts have been slowly headed towards that way. You've been starting to echo sentiments about liberals making it worse than it should be in order to take Trump down.

Flu is real bad and badly affects people of all ages and health. Every year.

I think Miscers think flu is a common cold for some reason.

Scary stuff man. I wish more people would take it seriously. I’m ready to quit my job and go hermit mode. I had Lyme disease in 2013 and was sick as hell. Lost 20 pounds/ slept 16 hours a day for 2 weeks. I made it through it and gained most of my strength back but took a couple years to hit my pre Lyme numbers. Hopefully this **** goes away soon

Flu is found year round with peaks in the fall and winter.

Other countries aren't testing 100s of thousands. Per day. Other countries don't report results. The US does because the US has made it political.

Maybe go on an anti inflammatory diet. Lots of omega 3, eat lots of broccoli, layoff junk food, sugar, alcohol...eat plenty of fruits.

Months up to a year.
With OPs symptoms, the heart and lungs are what you wanna look at if there is suspicion of blood clots or pericarditis.

OP you need to see a doctor, get an EKG and possibly PFT and repeat imaging (preferably CT with contrast).

If those are clean, then its likely just typical post pneumonia recovery.





OP im curious, what is your blood type and how were your vitamin D levels before you got hit with covid?

31 year old, healthy, fit co-worker of mine caught it in early April and isstillout of work. Talking on the phone or doing something simple like vacuuming his living room gets him winded. He's so exhausted he takes naps all the time. There may very well be horrible long-term effects. More studies will come out obviously; the more data we collect.

This is why I choose to wear a (real) mask when in public. People don't even wash their hands 99% of the time after taking a piss. Meaning most people's hygiene is horrific. I'm not taking any chances on long-term issues like OP. I'm not afraid of death, I'm afraid of having my lungs crippled.

Sorry to hear that OP. Care to provide more details about what could’ve increased or decreased your risk (including drug use)?

Pretty sure NBA players have gotten it and recovered and back on the court just fine right now.

I wouldn't exactly say this means recovery is hard. Maybe you were in poorer health than you believed going into this thing and that's why you're struggling to recover

Jus sayin

Seems like the only people really struggling with this thing are the self-proclaimed "healthy" people. Maybe you just got exposed as being in sh*tty health.
"One day I won't be able to lift any more. Not I won't want to lift. I mean physically unable. That day could be decades from now or it could be tomorrow. All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session. So go hard and enjoy every workout, every set, every rep. Because one day you will wake up and you will never get it back."

Did you get xray of chest to check for scaring after recovering?

I'd do so. Doc would probably be on board

I had DHF a couple years ago. I still have symptoms.

The last time I had the flu, it was August.

I got grilled by the nurse about it because I mentioned it in passing when I was getting my flu shot in October.

I remember reading ur original thread when u had it. ITT you saying it was "moderate" is scary considering how bad it was at the time when u described ur symptoms. I know u never went had to get on a ventilator or anything like that, but if that was "moderate" I want absolutely nothing to do with that chit...

threads like this are exactly why the fatality rate really isn't the only important thing to consider

wishing u well big dog
Awesome pics. Great size. Look thick. Solid. Tight. Keep us all posted on your continued progress with any new progress pics or vid clips. Show us what you got man. Wanna see how freakin' huge, solid, thick and tight you can get. Thanks for the motivation.

This. By OP's descriptions, it sounded pretty severe. If I recall, there were nights when he thought about going to the ER it was so bad. I also recall afterward he tested with insanely high antibodies so that's even scarier to hear he may have contracted the virus AGAIN. Although that seems to go in line with some of the recent studies indicating that antibodies don't last long for this virus...
