Oh my....are you saying you had Covid in the last month. Has Covid visited you more than once.? Do you think it happened at the Fair???
So far, a one time experience for me with Covid. I believe I contracted in February of this year when it was suggested by a nurse practitioner I go to Pulmonary Rehab. It was like a fitness center and only two of us were wearing a mask. None of the PT's were wearing a mask or had to wear masks. I felt nervous about masks not being used and all that expelling of breaths from others as they walked the treadmill etc., on the three days I went. It wasn't very crowded but, no masks! People are there due to lung problems, so why no masks I thought. By the morning after the third visit.....pain all day and ER that night. Left the ER with Paxlovid prescription for Covid. The Pulmonary Rehab was the only thing I can say I did differently since our being informed originally of Covid. I had been so careful, masking everywhere outside the house. So who knows for sure but so disappointed that I had contracted Covid. I also consider it my fault. I should have walked out and not stayed with my being uncomfortable with a no mask required environment where there were several people. I didn't listen to my "gut" feeling of 'this isn't good, no masks."
Yes, when I go to Tyler I have had a RT (she is great) help me with preparing a sputum sample, it does help. Approximately 12 sputum samples submitted, all accepted except the first one done with the PT, she forgot to label the vile. Again, somewhat my fault, I should have asked, helped, by asking "did we label the vile." Thank goodness I have not been told ' time for antibiotics.' Lucky me.
