    I've got pneumonia. My oxygen levels are still in the normal range. Was given steroids and one of the unproven antivirals, Ivermectin, along with fluids and nausea meds. I ate for the first time in days (still can't smell or taste). I guess I feel ok right now. Hopefully the pneumonia stays mild and my body can clear it.
    I didn't meet the criteria for antibodies. Too young and not obese enough. My underlying conditions aren't diabetes etc. I tried to argue but they apparently have a specific list.

    Wow! I didn't realize that hospitals/doctors were actually trying the Ivermectin. I've got a whole bottle of the stuff.

    I'll be free of parasites, ticks, scabies etc. Won't do a damn thing for pneumonia. Took 7 pills of it last night. Then seven more in 3 days.

    Yep. No heart worms, so there's that.

    You're not restricted to your county in TX

    They released a bunch of appointments in Bexar county a couple of weeks ago and I was able to make appointments for 10 people. (neighbors, family, even X-wife) Two of them live in Comal county. The only info required was name, Birthday, and phone number.

    If you're close sign up for www.universityhealthsystem.com alerts. They send out text and emails when they're opening up new appointments. They've been getting ~10,200 first doses each week.

    You can do the same for Bexar County/San Antonio mass site.

    I go back for my booster Feb 23rd. Every person I’ve spoken with at this moment has been knocked on their ass for a day. I’m taking mine before heading in to work, could be a rough couple days

    My neighbor is an Cov ICU nurse on the Coast. One thing they are doing is once you are positive they start a new treatment on you ASAP to help stave off you getting worse. I don't know the name of the drug, it starts with an M, but Oschners and one of the hospitals on the Coast are doing it. The idea is to treat early before it gets into your chest. And it's really cutting down on ICU admittance. Of course if you are Stage 4 lung cancer ot a real bad heart condition not much can be done for you.

    Still around. Got a mild case of pneumonia and nausea is so bad I struggle to eat. Down 12 LBs so far. Coughing up a bunch of lung gravy.
    Taking Vit D, zinc, pepsid, & Zyrtec. When fever comes around, take ibuprofen. Oxygen levels have been steady around 96.

    I've also heard from an ICU nurse that some of the side effects of having the virus are blood clots and they're starting aspirin regiments to thin the blood.

    Got my 1st shot yesterday afternoon. I was good until around lunchtime today. Now I have 103 fever, aching joints and the worst headache I’ve ever had. But the Dalai Lama said on my deathbed I would receive to conciseness, So I’ve got that going for me.

    Same here. Woke up this morning with soreness not nearly as bad as last night. It's strange how it affects people differently. Just like the virus
