I didn’t have a fever or other flu related symptoms. No covid symptoms, smell/taste fine. Just a nasty cough and I had a two day drive ahead of me.
I hacked/coughed horribly until the second driving day I got the cough drops, Rocola Natural Herb. They were a miracle but I ate them like candy. After arriving and two more sleepless night I hit the medical bandwagon. Did I wait too long, probably. Am I a hardheaded dude, absolutely. Did I worry, no. Of course if things hadn’t turned out ok, I’d be the first one to say “Oh you dumbass!”
Good thing with my insurance the ordeal was mostly covered, that was really a surprise. I was not close to my base.
I think the CT Scan is terribly important. An oxygen finger meter was something I used. It did read a little low at times. Certainly deep breaths are great for everyone, that was learned a long time ago. I believe covid and pneumonia present differently on a cat scan.
Take care. Breathe deep and plan that next step to burn all that fossil fuel you can.
