I got covid at a party on July 3rd (Im fairly positive I got it through shedding) and was starting to get flu like symptoms by the time I went to bed that night. July 4th, I was in bed all day with flu symptoms, and had a temp that got as high as 103. I broke the fever that night and on the 5th was starting to feel better and my flu symtoms turned into a bad cold that really set into my sinuses and kept trying to set into my chest, that lasted for a couple of weeks.
Now, did I go out and get some bullshit PCR test as soon as I knew I was getting sick? Of course not, I treated my sickness like I have countless other times before, with common sense. I didnt call the "frontline doctors" or run to Tractor Supply and buy up all the horse paste, I let my body fight it naturally.
Im 48 years old and I take fairly good care of myself. I exercise and watch what I put into my body as far as diet and I quit drinking alcohol. I got pretty sick, but I have been sicker and I knew that this so called "covid" wasnt anything life threatening. How do I know it was covid if I didnt get "tested"? I lost my sense of taste and smell and just recently got both of them back.
Like I said earlier, I used common sense when I was sick and that seems to have gotten lost in all of this covid nonsense. I isolated myself, I put good nutritious meals into me, drank orange juice and stayed hydrated and let my immune system do its job, pretty simple.
It blows my mind how people have no clue on how their body works or functions and will go out and eat shit like horse paste or load up on Ivermectin and Hydroxychloriquin (which are still petrochemicals) instead of looking into how to change their diet and stop eating fast food all the time or cutting back on booze and drinking more water or something as simple as getting outside in the sun for some vitamin D.
Im done dealing with retards and Im probably gonna get some shit over this post but I dont care. If people would just take better care of themselves we wouldnt be in this mess we are in.....
My goal is to be a healthy and fit senior, life is too precious to be sick all the time. Best of luck to you...
People my age ask me all the time how I stay so fit. I just don't have the heart to tell them that it takes discipline, getting to my gym 5 days a week rain or shine, no smoking or alcohol, eating a healthy diet, and getting a good night's sleep. Every day, no excuses.
I know they don't want to hear it, and wouldn't do it anyway. So I just tell them "I work at it" and leave it at that.
I got a LOT of discipline in the Marine Corps, and it has served me well ever since.
20 year AF vet here my friend and I completely understand about discipline even though I was in the "chair force". Nobody takes pride in themselves anymore it seems and that's unfortunate. Glad to hear you are doing well and I wish you continued success. Thank you for your service Patriot.....
Not sure why the fuck somebody would downvote this comment. Have an updoot.
To you too, Patriot, thank you.
