Op, I’ve heard of several people having 3-4 week issues
This thing can turn quickly

Don’t let this replicate in you, get some hydroxychloroquine and possibly z-pack
Ask your doctor
It’s showing as effective

Look up the deep breathing technique and find something to take your mind off it. Video games, book, movie, tv shows. I would get real bad at night time when everything was quiet and I was all alone. Almost called 911 because I felt like I was blacking out from lack of oxygen. Stressed constantly for almost 3 weeks. Finally just said fuk it. If I suffocate and die then so be it. But I'm not gonna sit around with constant anxiety, fear, and stress. Stopped paying attention too it then after about a week I remembered I was supposed to be having breathing problems. I completely forgot about it since my breathing was fine. Not saying this really pertains too much to the coronavirus but people need to realize your mindset plays an important role in how much your symptoms affect you. Stay mentally strong boyos. Kick this coronavirus right in the kunt and send it packing op.
Yeah, this morning was the worst.. I started manually thinking about my breathing and couldnt sleep and made it worse..

You're on stage 4. Now you find out if you caught a mild strain or an aggressive strain.
Ive had a weak ass sore throat since about march 6 i think and nothing else.
then, the past week, especially on mon,tuesday, i noticed this chest discomfort and hard to catch breath.
Last night, was playing overwatch and head felt really hot and vision blurring a bit and light headed.
palms sweating a bit. Almost decided to go to emergency room right then..
but didnt. Felt really exhausted suddenly after that and went to sleep earlier than usual.
Tonight, I felt fine for the start of the night but went to emergency to see if I can get to the bottom of it.
They pretty much just referred me to another hospital in the morning to get tested. so gonna do that.

Now I think I feel a fever coming on suddenly.
Having a lemon ginger tea with honey and waiting till hospital opens at 9 to go get tested.
im mainly worried about missing work but supposedly you can get 2k a month from the ontario government for up to 4 months.
I just dont want to lose any money in the meantime. my work was saying to go to a doctor but they cant really do anything unless your lungs are filling up or need oxygen etc

Had a sore throat for days and now I have chills and shortness of breath. IDK if that's just my being paranoid giving me anxiety though. It's hard to tell. I haven't been to the doctor in years. IDK who I would even call. Do I just go to urgent care if it gets worse??

As I said, unheard of. Different strains don't count obviously. There's not really a lot of info on corona strains
Lyme disease makes itself invisible to the immune system, so even if it could kill it, it wont be able to fight it off. If not treated right away, you are looking at over a year of antibiotics. I should know, I have Lyme Disease.
Dengue Fever can cause a cytokine storm if it reinfects you, your immune system kills you.

Virologist here. It is still not clear why most healthy young individuals have only mild or even no symptoms and other get critically sick and have to be ventilated. The IL6 he's talking about is a cytokine, which is a chemical of your immune system to promote inflammation to combat the virus. However, if too much is released (cytokine storm) it is harmfull and further destroys the lung tissue (along with the virus replicating in your lung cells). It can be genetic e.g. some people are not genetically prone that their immune cells react with this cytokine storm but it can also be that in some degree of the human population there's a receptor variant or co-receptor missing/different in the lung tissue or upper respiratory tract that makes infection/spreading in the body hard for the virus and thus some people only develope mild or no symptoms. Other factors like smoking can also be a cause. It's too early to tell.
Originally Posted By oreogasm

Severity of Dengue Fever reinfection is not due to cytokine storm but to a phenomenon called Antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE). After infection with the Dengue virus, the antibodies produced by your immune system only poorly fit to a different strain of the Dengue virus. If you get infected with that different strain those antibodies will bind but not inactivate the virus. This has two fatal outcomes:
1) Your dendritic cells start ingesting the virus as it would be normal with an inactivated virus, so they can present the antigens (part of the virus that other immune cells recognize as foreign). Only here the virus is still active and just infects the dentritic cell and destroys it. So the dendritic cells actually help the virus to spread in your body.
2) Because of that high titer of antibodies, your immune response is lowered by your immune system. Since the immune response is a lot of effort for your body (as you can feel during an infection) there's a negative feedback loop that sets in once your body estimates it has produced enough antibodies. Only in this case the antibodies don't work, or better actually make it worse. But now your immune response is also down regulated by those antibodies. And that's good night sweet prince.

How ya feeling today, OP? I've been checking in on this thread to get updates on your condition.

Besides going to my local grocery store once every 10 days or so, I'm staying on my property. I really don't want to catch this thing. I'm right in the middle of a cut and it would really throw a wrench in that + I don't want to give it to my woman because, when she gets sick, the symptoms are bad.

Hopefully things will look up soon!

I feel like I could have had this thing. I had a cough and fatigue that wouldn't go away. I also had extremely red eyes that apparently is a possible symptom? I have no idea. I hope you get better OP regardless.

I had fatigue and the back of my eyes and head were killing me for a few days, like someone hit the back of my head with a hammer. Also some stomach problems etc

Cold symptoms or have I already had it?

The definition of "fit" seems to vary and not matter much with this virus. At first it was old people and no kids, now we got kids, teens, spring breakers and young adults as well.

The scary part is that he was seemingly showing mild symptoms one minute and the next minute needed a ventilator to keep him alive. It looks like it goes from 5/10 to 10/10 in seconds or minutes.

Dunno about the ventilator stuff but I've read a lot of stories where a fever and extreme fatigue set in within minutes out of the blue

I have run a 20 miler training and you are running for at a minimum 3 hours up to 4 or 5ish, so his lung capacity had to be decent beforehand. Very sorry to hear this.

This virus is really weird. Seems very believable that there are multiple strains circulating due to the variety of symptoms presenting from the original (high fever, dry cough) to a more recent one (mainly digestive issues), and then reports from NYC of patients showing Covid damage on CT that weren't in the ER for the virus at all (car wreck).
Primary COVID-19 Known Symptoms

Each of these are not mutually exclusive:


- Fever

- Headache

- Dry cough

- Body aches

- Extreme fatigue (UNOFFICIAL)

- Bluish lips or face

- Trouble breathing

- Shortness of breath

- Pain and pressure in the chest

- Loss or diminished smell and taste (UNOFFICIAL)

- New confusion or inability to arouse

- Conjunctivitis - Redness of the upper and lower eyelids (UNOFFICIAL)

- Gastrointestinal Upset - Commonly included symptoms are: Constipation, Diarrhea, Heartburn, Nausea, Stomach Pain and Vomiting (UNOFFICIAL)
This thread is the second place I have read of a fit healthy 30s age person who has landed in ICU on a vent with no underlying conditions.

No idea of accuracy, but I've also seen multiple places accounts of people who become symptomatic and then 4 or 5 days later are hospitalized and then 4 or 5 days later are dead.

Seems to be one of the biggest evolutionary dice rolls for humanity in a very long time.

I went to the hospital to be with my family but I kept my distance. I remember driving home and when I got inside the house my body was so achy and uncontrollable to the point where I was running into walls just to get in my room and go to bed. I've also had a gnarly sinus infection where I couldn't stop coughing and I ended up sleeping on my couch in the sitting position because I couldn't sleep laying down. I think the corona is the real deal and should be avoided at all costs but I think a lot of us forget how sick we've been at some points in our lives but we got through it.
