Hi everyone,
I'd like to share a personal message about my experience with COVID-19 and to let you know when we plan to re-open.
3 weeks ago, we had a patient test positive for Influenza A. Out of prudence, we also swabbed her for coronavirus 19. To my dismay, she also tested positive for this. As a precaution, the staff and myself tested the next morning. All returned negative.
End of story, right?
Not quite.
While I refrained from coming to the office after that negative test, at around day 6 I started to experience overwhelming fatigue, intermittent chills, body aches and a persistent nausea that I’ve NEVER experienced. All these symptoms came and went. I jumped onto Reflux medication (Nexium 40 mg daily and some days Pepcid complete), Tylenol 1000 mg every 8 hours, and stayed hydrated. All these efforts enabled me to recover fully, and I am now back to normal after 6 days of significant symptoms.
My wife and I quarantined ourselves since my exposure and thankfully, she did not catch the virus and is well.
To ensure everyone's safety, I tested myself again with the SARS COV-2 (COVID 19) antibody test and it was positive. This means that *I am no longer thought to be contagious, and now have IMMUNITY to this bug*.
(I do plan on donating some plasma to help assist others).
