Covid Warrior to Covid Survior !!!
I am finally PCR negative after 14 days of isolation.
When I was initially tested positive, I had mild myalgia, weakness and fever. This isolation period of 14 days wasn’t as much physically challenging , as it was mentally, that uncertainty of events which could have followed always hunted. Weakness and dizziness got me to the core, even usual chores had me sweating like a boiling water.
Day 9 onwards, things returned back to normal.
I had tried to limit this news to as few people as possible, despite this I am greatful to all of you who called and messaged me to know the state of my health. Your wish seemed to have worked quite well.
I didn’t transmit it to anyone, hence from all retrospective evidences I can say that if we act a bit more responsible, we can actually contain this virus.
Regarding medication I had taken Vitamin C, Zinc, Multivitamin, Vitamin D, Ranitidine, Paracetamol. Other than that , Honey, Ginger, hot water, high protein diet were the things I had encorporated in my diet.
Nobody knows long term sequelae after COVID-19,
lets hope there won’t be any problems because of this in the future.
You however still have option, option to protect yourself.
Please don’t take COVID lightly. Follow all necessary precautions.
Stay happy and positive!!
