Both my wife and myself had it back in Nov 2020, there was a tsunami of it in our area in Nov and I don't know anybody that didn't have it !.
We always thought with the nature of Sues, work that it was not if but when we contracted COVID , she shook it off pretty well but I was ill for about three weeks , liking it to proper flu on steroids even now 10 months on I still havent got my zest back and my GP although he is trying his best is still scratching his head and has conducted more tests than you can throw a stick at . I have prescribed myself a week away every 4/5 weeks to get some caving, mine exploration and diving done
. I also had a bad reaction to the AZ vaccine so much so I finished up having full body MRI scans and it has left me with a funny sort of Tinnitus , similar to a cricket insect sound in my right ear. The Drs said that I must have the Pfizer as my second dose as they " deemed the AZ unsuitable for a second dose " . The Pfizer vaccine I was ok with .
As for family my wife lost 6 members of her family last year including her mum and dad
all down to COVID, some grace for her was knowing that we didn't pass it on to them. My dad had it and although he is very very poorly and permanently in a hospital bed somehow managed to survive it god only knows how :-\ if you understand his 02 sats were only 68 on full 15 liters of oxygen, they did use an experimental drug on him that for the life of me I cant remember the name of it . I think looking at peoples replies one of the biggest issues is mental health that is plaguing people ???
