Sorry to hear that j2k4. Do you think it's possible that the effects of the shot lowered your immune system temporarily, which in turn made you more susceptible to catching whatever might be around.

I have never had any kind of shot or vaccination personally. Travelled a lot around most of the world, and never (knowingly) caught anything.

I'm not against them as such, just saying, like.

Actually thinking of approaching the local medicos to be tested - I believe I may have dealt with this about six or seven weeks ago; the nuts of it was a period of about 48 hours of feeling like I'd literally been run over by a herd of cattle; somewhat ironically, I know just how that feels from experience.
Oddly - or not - I had gotten the "flu shot" about six weeks prior, for the first time since back in the 80s, when they first developed it.

Hey J2K4 sorry you are under the weather buddy, I get a flu shot every year, and same with my wife and kids, and one of the side effects is you may get the odd cold, but it is to prevent more severe things like pneumonia, or again severe respiratory illness..I can tell you it doesn't always work. The same you see zithromax (azithromycin) being used as a test drug, i have taken that many times for pneumonia and walking pneumonia, it works really good to kill it off...

Hope you do feel better and fight off the bug you have....

She died of cardiac arrest end of January, and I was sick about two weeks later, just before covid19 hit the spotlight.

Just yesterday I heard a doctor describe peak symptoms which squared with my experience...

Really sorry to hear about your wife buddy, olav ha-sholom (rest in peace)

Truthfully, with the weather change in my opinion you are going to see a lot of people getting colds and soar throats for sure, and the same sometimes it fucking lingers forever it seems...

I would really say if you are having sever troubles breathing, then i would go and get checked out to be safe, but at your age you should be able to fight anything off, the same i wish you Kineahora, to get well

...

Again just my opinion, and wishing a friend well.......

Okay, I have fomented some mis-understanding, I think.

1. Whatever bug I had, I am well-over - I will, however, keep your wishes in-pocket for future usage

I am investigating the worth of being tested for antibodies.

2. It was my mother who passed, not my wife.

Nontheless, thanks all around.

Oh Shit J2K4!!!!

I apologize on thinking it was your wife, i guess i didn't read your post closely buddy......My mind wonders sometimes...

My point was you get so many different things said what the symptoms really you should look for when it comes to the China/Wuhan Virus, one i think constant is fever no matter what media you are reading, the rest is hit and miss.....

Again my apologies for not reading your post with full attention and glad you are well and recovered no matter what the heck you really had

And go for it if you want to donate your body for science
