Based on data out of France that a higher proportion of young patients were doing poorly from a respiratory standpoint where taking large amounts of NSAIDS. The FDA is mum about it, but I think until more information is available I would avoid NSAIDS if you become infected with this virus.

That's pretty messed up man. Is it your new team or old team that all got infected? And how do you think they got it, from hospitals or a team meeting?

reason being?

In all my life of getting headaches only ibuprofen has worked, so if infected would be my reaction.

there is a complicated medical explanation that concludes that it could make the virus worse. In addition to that one, the NSAIDs are processed by the kidneys, which can be stressed during this illness. Tylenol is processed through the liver.

The doc thread at the top of the page discusses these in more detail.

Moving on. Happened two years ago.

I'm feeling pretty good today. Haven't even taken Tylenol so maybe I'm getting over the hump. We will see!

Glad you are feeling better today. Read a few that say it seems to go away as fast is it comes on.

Glad to hear, Baller.

Sorry if I missed, but are you in isolation with anyone else? If so, how is it going trying to keep them from becoming infected? Or are they already?

Yeah I'm with my boyfriend. We live together and he's why i moved to LA. He has zero symptoms except he's been saying that food tastes bland the last few days. He's had no headache or fever and he was definitely exposed if I was.

He's only 32 so maybe that's why.

I know we've been on opposite sides in several discussions here, but I wish you all the best and pray that you kick Covid's ass.

Thank you for the first-hand account of your experience.

Stay on guard. Lots of reports with this of improvement and then further decline. Just listen to your body.

Yep. Next 2 days are critical from what I've been reading. Not a doctor, but reports saying symptoms level off after initial onset, then day 8 or 9 the respiratory complications come back with a vengeance (in some cases). Just keeping taking it easy and thanks for posting updates. Really helps to ease anxiety over it.

Fantastic news. We don't always agree, but I am excited for you that you're feeling better.

Keep giving it hell.

I thought it was day 7/8 that are the worst. Not 8/9.

You may be right. I've read some many numbers in the past 3 weeks, it's impossible to keep everything straight. Didn't want to alarm you, just hoping you get well.

You're only 39 and in good health, right? I doubt the 7 years is the difference. Anyway, glad to hear you're feeling better!

And I hate to hear about your experience on this board. Seriously reprehensible behavior that deserves some consequences.

Just curious. Do you have blood type A and does he have blood type O by any chance?

Praying for you Baller!!

I am glad you are doing well so far. Most people believe the serious symptoms occur around days 6/7 so hopefully you are on the mend soon. If you are not already taking it I would load up on Zinc as it has shown to stop intracellular replication in vitro.

Unfortunately, I have a strong feeling that must of us in healthcare are going to eventually become infected. Let's just pray they are all minor infections.

Just got an update on the doctor i worked with that day. He's in serious but stable condition in the icu. He's gotten sicker.

What I don't understand is how we all got coronavirus from being in an operating room where everyone is wearing PPE and surgical gloves.

The case was like 18 hours bc it was a very serious cancer patient with multiple tumors on his bladder and intestines. They debulked the tumors and had to do some stuff to the bladder. I didn't join the case until like hour 11 when they had to close the hernia they made with my product.

What a terrible thing when you and other medical professionals have to literally risk your lives to help others. Hope you and the surgeon recover fully!

Just to clarify, I'm not scrubbed in and not wearing masks but all the nurses are and I'm wearing a surgeon cap and a mask. Just don't get it.
