Don't remember some of the stuff during the past week but one the wife just told me. Our Dr. called to ask how I was doing sending the Albuterol Sulfate, which defiantly helped the breathing, thanks Smokeypig. She told Suzanne to load me up with vitamin C, D and 400mg of Zinc a day. We verified this with one of her co-workers who also had the Virus and her Dr. told her the same thing. I'd check with your Dr. before doing this but something got me thru it pretty quick compared to others. I'm still dealing with the headache but most of my symptoms have subsided today. Slight fever 99* and some cough but nothing like when it started. Now I gotta get a negative test before scheduling my heart tests then shoulder surgery.

Great news that you're on the mend. I've heard or saw Dr. on TV that Albuterol helps. I know it helps with breathing as I have COPD and the VA has me on it and my primary care Dr. said if I was exposed to the China virus I might not even get it. Stay positive you'll be OK.

So glad to hear all that, Ivey! My wife used to use that Albuterol, for the COPD... She DID say that it helped some. Continued prayers for all of us, might well be "in order". Better days are coming!!!

I'm glad to hear good reports. I know so many that are currently sick. Praying for this thing to finally be under control.

Mrs. JimRed and I had it and recovered. Fluids, aspirin (Tylenol for her) and extra zinc & vitamins were all we used as treatment. But our fevers were low-grade and over in a couple of days. If you get really sick early on, get your doc to prescribe the HCQ-Z to knock it out.

Good news Ivey, glad to hear you're coming around. Suzanne doing well also? Good luck with the upcoming heart doctor, and then the shoulder.

Suzanne really never got sick just lost taste and smell, she hasn't slowed down a bit.
Thanks for all the good wishes and prayers from everyone, I think i'm on the better side of this thing.
Must be all that fish oil in your blood, Ivey. Makes you stronger than most! Glad to hear you're feeling better.
