Re: I got my test results this morning
Did they mention contact tracing and quarantine?

They asked if I was in contact with anyone who tested positive. I am under quarantine.
There’s 4 of us in this apt. Everyone should have been tested and under quarantine. Nope, the staffing company doesn’t care. They still sent the others to work.

Re: I got my test results this morning
Hope your dose continues to be a mild one. I have extended family members who got the covid, and who, at first, said it was a mild dose, nothing to worry about, but then, after about two weeks, they both were hospitalized with shortness of breath and trouble breathing. Thankfully, they have recovered. It is the strangest feeling dose, according to them as well.

New development. When I take a deep breath my chest hurts and I get shortness of breath.

Do you have teladoc so you can get advice from a doc online if needed?

Do you have some apple cider vinegar? Warm up some water on the stove with the vinegar. After it starts to steam, put a towel over your head and breath in the steam. Do that as soon as possible.

Don’t have any. Just got off the phone with a brother from the church who is a respiratory therapist. He said to continue to take deep breaths even if it feels uncomfortable. He also messaged a doc he used to work with who has been successful treating covid patients and will pass along any info.

Can you get someone to bring you some? You need to heal yourself. I use homeopathy before I ever see a doctor.
My husband and I both had this in November last year, before they knew what it was. My husband was much more ill than I was, which is typical for Covid. He was having to sleep in a chair because he could hardly breathe at night. Anyway, I used my homeopathy methods and he saw a doctor. We both got better at the same time. I saved money, he didn't.
Just my opinion, of course, but doctor's are a lot like the auto repair shop. Unless the engine light is on, they have no idea what they are doing. So, I take care of myself first.

Re: I got my test results this morning
According to Occupational Health and Safety, one of the biggest problems with COVID-19 is that it hinders our ability to breathe. “This virus’s fatal possibility is creating hypoxia (deficiency in the amount of oxygen reaching the tissues) by attacking the ability of the lungs to and circulatory system to connect with, and then deliver, life-preserving oxygen to all cells in our body,” the article said. “In essence, it internally suffocates a person, even when oxygen may be abundant outside.”
The article outlined a breathing technique that may help when done in tandem with prescribed treatment. Dr. Sarfaraz Munshi, of Queen’s Hospital in London, recommended taking a deep breath and holding it for five seconds, five times in a row; then coughing once into a cloth; and finally laying prone on the stomach for 10 minutes, which promotes deeper breathing. Dr. Munshi said it expands the lower part of the lungs to expedite the dislodging of mucus, which can then be coughed out.
