I have been tested positively COVID-19 and today is the 10th day, well I am recovering now. I want to share my experience, how it really feels like having coronavirus in your body.
On the very first day, 24–03–2020, symptoms were high fever and headache. The next day vomiting dizziness and fainted four times in a day and eventually need to call for an ambulance and admitted in hospital. They just kept a saline bottle and tested for COVID-19 and later that day, midnight around 1:30 am, sent me home.
I came home, slept, and woke up, started fainting as I was having. I didn’t have any energy to speak, stand, or walk. Somehow, with the help of my housemates, I took some fluids, gained some energy, and I was having a different kind of sensation in the body which I have never experienced in my life, which doesn’t make you sit stand or sleep.
It feels like your body is continuously working on something. Maybe it was battling against the virus. It is more like something sitting on your chest which will irritate you so badly. How much ever you eat or drink, your energy drains so fast like charging a mobile to 100% and after using it for just an hour, your battery is critically low. It continued for the next seven days and when it come to breathing, thick mucus stuck in the throat which doesn’t comes out to spit or we can’t swallow in. I tried many ways to get rid of it, which was causing shortness of breath until you drink some hot water or turmeric milk. It was not melting and coming out to spit or swallowed into your stomach and then it gives some relief and I was taking these hot water for every 15 minutes and which allowed me to breath properly.
Whenever I feel low energy immediately there was a temperature in body and I used only Tylenol (paracetamol). Even after 9 days still, I feel exhausted. The diet, which helped me to cope with this virus and to have some energy, was rice, eggs, glucose dextrose, bananas, oranges, apple, lemon, turmeric milk, and hot water every 15–20 mins. I forgot to mention about the lab test results were informed by the doctor on the same day, and I discharged later in the afternoon around 3:20 pm. I received a call from the doctor that I have been tested positive for COVID-19 and said that I need to self isolate myself for the next two weeks.
I says that no one should go through this virus as I have seen the worst phase of my life in the past few days being far away from your parents coping with the loneliness and battling with this virus is not an easy task.
Why the government is stressing so hard on this virus and why the old age are dropping, you will come to know when you experience this virus.
So, please stay home, don’t leave your home until unless it is very urgent. Nothing is more important than your life. Luckily, I was having some helping hands and they helped me a lot with the food and all necessities every day and I want to thank them and may god bless all the people that helped me and prayed for me.
Thank you guys for reading my post. Once I recover fully, I will make an another post. Please bless me and pray for me to have a speed recovery. Thank you once again.
