I'm trying not to worry too much or stress myself, as I know it will make it worse. I've been "fully" jabbed since early July, and since then I've been taking NAC, D3, Zinc, C and Quercetin religiously. I did just run out of Quercetin this week though. I started feeling bad at work yesterday, got worse as the day went on and I woke up throughout the night feeling the worst I've felt so far. Fever, runny nose, very tight and sharp pains in my chest. It feels like I'm breathing through a coffee straw. My sister has some Ivermectin, so I plan on reaching out to her once I'm done with this update. The weather here in NC has been very crazy too, with daily temps of 40 degrees in the morning to just below 80 in the afternoon. Anyway, I will say I've been much sicker than this before, as I had pneumonia as a teen.. But right now, I'm getting a little concerned with the "lung squeeze" I'm experiencing. I will NOT, however, be going to the hospital. I've already made it known, if I ever get super sick anytime soon and get taken there, absolutely no remdesivir. I think I've detailed everything, but if I think of anything else I'll comment. Just wanted to provide details from first hand experience. Will keep y'all up to date!

I do have a cough, and the steam from running the scalding hot water in the bathroom relieved a good bit of the chest pressure, but still tight feeling. No chills. At the moment, fever is down, I'm ridiculously bundled up trying to sweat it all out, sitting upright and laying on my stomach if I need to lay down. To go along with what I've read here, my sis said the Ivermectin had her much better within a day, while her kid and husband remained sick for another couple days. Definitely something to that stuff, so she can't get here with it fast enough. My 170 lb horse could use a dose.
Do you get out of breath when you walk a relatively short distance?
Not really. I've had a little shortness of breath for a couple months now. By little, I guess I mean I find myself taking a deep breath more often than normal. I mentioned it reminded me of asthma I had as a kid earlier, because I'd randomly take deep breaths when I was younger. For the most part I try to stay somewhat active. I play a decent amount of basketball, and I try push myself to see how long it would take for me to get winded.
That's good. Sounds like it is not as serious as I was thinking. Best of luck with the horse paste, Ed. ;-)
It definitely sucks, and I did the little breathing test through a normal plastic straw, where they told me as a kid that breathing through a straw is what it felt like to breathe normally as a smoker. The breaths I took through the straw did make it a little more difficult to breathe, but for the most part they felt pretty similar.
Would it be constant with anxiety though..? And it got worse when I started feeling bad yesterday morning, so I just figured it had to be the fact that I was getting sick.
