I really hope the whole world will learn from this - and will be a better place afterwards... 21 hours ago, Padmapani said: the thing with the tests and risk zones is beyond ridiculous by now. what lung problems have you had before? any fever now? from what i've read in the scientific literature, it'd be very unusual to go staight from just feeling weak to coughing blood without typical pneumonia symptoms in between. also covid-19 does usually progress to serious illness, if it does at all, in a matter of no more than two weeks. if it's not covid-19 it's probably for the best if they don't collect you now and put you in with covid-19 patients when you're already coughing up blood now. didn't they say that anyone who gets advised to do a test by a doctor will get one now? or is it just the usual thing of "shorty" lying as soon as he opens his mouth… what about the drive-in stations they put up in all kinds of places? anyway, all the best. get well soon and fuck our chaotic, bureaucratic way of managing this crisis. Thanks for the info ... yes, it also deemed unusal to me ... but I had about three weeks of slight "feling sick" before, so maybe that was it already? That's at least what made the doctor think it's a suspected Covid-19... I am flattered by the arguments from the people at our Covid-19 hotline ... they are nice and all, but denying that test is really bad. There are no drive-in tests in Vienna yet ... and even if there were, you'd need to pre-register via the hotline ... which they denied... I have no bloody cough anymore, but a serious shortage of breath when lying down - i.e. sleeping. This worries me a lot right now, because I cannot get enough sleep I can get up and even walk around in the flat without major problems ... there's slight pain in the lung area and an occasional cough, but I'd call it "mild symptoms" ... but when I lie down, "all hell breaks loose" - the problem is, I do have anxiety and this worsens everything a huge deal. Temperature is 37,3 by the way ... just slightly raised. Normally I wouldn't be concerned about this... I slept half an hour in the morning today and afterwards I felt like I had just climbed a mountain. What on earth is this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Padmapani Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 that shortness of breath does sound a little suspicious. i think you should get tested. don't hesitate to call again if it gets any worse. keep us updated and take care. that thing with lying down reminds me of what my parents told me a few weeks ago. they both were sick but comparatively fine in the afternoon, but had a bad cough with a little shortness of breath when lying down at night and frequently woke up because of the coughing. i myself have had a little raised temperature (about 37,2) for 10 days together with feeling exhausted (might also have been due to stress at work) and a burning sensation in the bronchi, that caused me to stop smoking for the whole time (which i've never done due to sickness before) maybe two weeks ago. nothing major at all, not worse than the usual sniffles you get in winter, but the burning was unusual. we're all fine now, but considering the wide range of symptoms, going from nothing at all to life-threatening, and how little we still know of the disease i'd really like to know if that was it or i'm just overly attentive when any such symptoms are mentioned in a situation like this one. i've got an antibody test coming in the mail (the kind of test that is only positive 1-2 weeks after the infection) soon. the more data we have the better. if any of us has a positive result the official numbers are just the tip of a giant iceberg, which would also make covid-19 a lot less dangerous as most cases would be relatively mild and go unrecognised.

Padmapani Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 results are negative for all of us. so if the tests are as good as the manufacturer claims (5% false negatives), there are a few other viruses out there with similar symptoms (dry cough, tiredness, lung pain, raised temperature, no clogged nose or sneezing at all) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTP Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Hey, what you describe sounds exactly like I've been feeling since the last 3 weeks - but I suspect I got a reinfection: I was sick at first, felt quite bad, then got better after about 10 days, went out and to work again, also went for extended walks and such ... then it got worse again and I feel like in another "10 day cycle" -- only strange thing was the bloody cough and the shortness of breath. It got better now, the blood is practically gone and the breathing feels better. Two tiny red dots in the morning cough today ... nothing to worry about. But I am staying alert ... if it worsens I will not hesitate to call the hotlines again. My dad (an old man and a risk person) has the same symptoms like you describe. A burn in the bronchi and a medium sore throat that gets very dry in the morning ... but he'd rather be carried out by the paramedics than call the hotline, I have tried to convince him already The fact that your tests were negative makes me some hope that it's not Covid-19 what we have. Maybe there is another weaker virus out there that causes these symptoms (*). The blood that I coughed is the only odd and worrisome thing. I will get this checked as soon as I can, but at the moment I must stay home. (*) and maybe - odd theory - if this weak undetected virus and covid-19 come together, there is a drastically higher risk to cause a hospitalization Another way how I put it is: if this is Covid-19, so be it ... but if it's not, I pray I never get Covid-19 because the outlook is grim when I already have such trouble with a weaker virus right now!

RTP Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Hi ... thanks for the info. Here's an update: I am now an official "suspected case" - meaning I got a test. I had to mention several times that my doctor specifically wants this test... The guys in white were at the door yesterday and took my samples. I need a result either way -- after talking to my doctor I do not even suspect it to be positive anymore, but I need a negative result on paper to be able to visit doctors. Nobody treats you without protective gear when you say you have temperature and shortness of breath - and doctors aren't properly equipped The result needs up to 3 days ... no joke But I am happy that it happens! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Padmapani Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 that's good news! but i really wonder what takes them so long to get to the test results. it procedure involves something like 30 min sample cleanup, 30min of combining ingredients for the test (if you want to fill up the thermocycles with lots of samples) and then letting the machine run for 5h. i could understand if they collect samples from one entire day, then let the thermocycler run overnight, but even then you'd have a result in the next morning. anyway, keep us updated with the results.

RTP Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Hello - new update: IT IS OFFICIALLY COVID-19 Yesterday the problems got so bad that I called 911 and got checked up in the hospital! In the course of this chceckup, the hospital did a NEW Corona test and the result of this NEW test has been positive! On 4/11/2020 at 12:19 AM, Padmapani said: that's good news! but i really wonder what takes them so long to get to the test results. it procedure involves something like 30 min sample cleanup, 30min of combining ingredients for the test (if you want to fill up the thermocycles with lots of samples) and then letting the machine run for 5h. i could understand if they collect samples from one entire day, then let the thermocycler run overnight, but even then you'd have a result in the next morning. anyway, keep us updated with the results. Hey, I have no clue what takes them so long for the initial test results to arrive. The doctor from the ambulance gave a hint: I overheard he suspects that they've lost my sample as he talked to a colleague. A second brigade came to me on Friday for another test ... no sign of that one either. It's a mess! Fortunately the people at the hospitals are better trained and more accurate. I just got the news from the doctor from the hospital they took me to yesterday. So my problems ... it is weird: it seems I have nightly Hypopnea ("Hypopnoe" in German) and also Apnea ... my breathing gets lower and lower and lower until it stops completely - I then have to wake up and consciously re-initiate the breathing! This process only happens when I do not breathe consciously, such as when going to sleep. That was the reason to call ambulance - unfortulately I did it in the morning and the symptoms were away during the day ... but they checked me through and let me out again, so yeah. The doctor on the phone saw no indication that I should return to the hospital, so I will try to battle it at home then - but when impossible I'll call ambulance. There is almost no mucus at all in the lungs, by the way. Only very slight cough and a temperature of 37,2 - and even that went away, in the hospital they measured 36,8. The only odd thing was coughing blood one time. And now this nightly Apnea. Everybody out there please be careful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The things that happen with the tests here are really a mess. I still have no result from the first two... Yes, the hypopnea / apnea is very strange also to all doctors I talked to about it. I am suspecting that I had a condition already and the virus worsened it greatly. I was a snorer, as people who I traveled with reported - and I have had the occasional case of being not well rested after the night. But never to this extent ... so I suspect that the virus made it greatly worse -- would be logical: the lungs can currently not take the strain of my "ordinary sleep apnea condition" (which was hardly noticeable before) now that they are stressed out with the Covid-19... I don't take any opioids, don't need them as I have not much of a cough. I have been prescribed a bronchodilatador (emergency asthma medication) - this helps with breathing in the night, but it does not fully cure the process that I do not breathe by myself. It's very weird. I have to watch it closely and call ambulance if it's not bearable - will do that. Fever is of no use at all as an indicator. I have just a bit raised temperature such as 37,2...

RTP Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Hello ... I have managed without another 911 call so far. Tonight I'd say it's the first time that there is a little bit of light shimmering in the tunnel ... let's hope it won't be a train. What is odd is that the temperature rose to 37,5 yesterday and I got a bit of a sore throat now - but I believe this might be my own immune system finally checking "hey, there is something in the system that we need to get rid of". I'll watch it closely, but I feel a bit better ("better by the margin of the thickness of a coin" is the wording that came to me in the night) ... so I'll just hang on. I have came across this video and I am now in a good enough state to watch what this "thing" is doing to me ... really interesting - and it also explains the blood coughing in my opinion. You should watch it, it might prevent damage: Cytokine storms are mentioned too - but they don't seem so dangerous, it's just a natural body reaction, right? Or did I miss something there?

Or did I miss something there? i think you missed something there. worst case scenario; they are extremely dangerous and basically its the immune system going into hyperdrive killing all your internal organs in the process, causing heart attacks and god knows what else, and results in death. and there is no known cure for it. but, its not fatal all the times, many people here in sweden seem to pull through, after said storm. i think the numbers here are 80% living through the Intensive care unit, where all the cytokine storm and hypoxemia patients are. Theres also doctors saying the oxygen thing is like high altitude sickness, and that the lungs are okay and the damage to the lungs seen in pictures (the white lungs) are from ventilators themselves damaging the lungs. but somehow there is not a transmission of oxygen from the lungs to the bloodstream. hopefully they figure this thing out sooner than later and can correctly start to treat people, god knows how many lungs have been damaged due to overcompression from the ventilators :/ when in fact the problem lies elsewhere.

I called around doctors if somebody would get me some oxygen ... but nobody of them could. I managed with the bronchodilatador alone.

(i'm sure you'll be much better soon. the usual time between first complaints to a doctor and recovery is somewhere around two weeks) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTP Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Hello ... an update again, I have been staying low the past 2 weeks and it got better, I was able to go out again ... and yesterday I was at the lung doctor and got a check up: lungs are OK. I do still have the one or other bad night ... but I hope that it will not go really bad again. I have returned to work and so far I'm alright. Sports will have to wait. For the moment I am "NRTP" : "not running to psytrance" ... The doctor recommeded me a check for sleep apnea which will be done in June in first steps ... if I get results, I might post them here for completion. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the goa constrictor Posted June 25, 2020 Author Share Posted June 25, 2020 Well, the USA is shitting the bed so badly with this, we're now quarantined out of Europe indefinitely. That kinda sucks... =( God damn this shit... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTP Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Yes it sucks really bad to hear the news from USA - I have sympathy for you people ... I hope the winter is not going to f*k you over, hopefully you'll be through the worst before it comes... Cases rising here in Europe too though ... people coming home from "Ballermann" bringing the sickness - a "Summer Ischgl"... What is very odd is, that I have had the feeling of a strange taste and smell the last days - this kind of smell (slightly metallic and "bloody") I remember from the time when I was sick ... never made a big deal about it, but now that I am tasting it again it feels funny ... mabe it is indeed coming back? ("coming back" as in "germ concentration rising again") (it's interesting, people say "loss of taste and smell", but I don't belive it's complete loss, it's just that this metallic taste overshadows everything, that's how I would put it ... it feels like you have eaten something very very hot (although you didn't) and burnt your tongue = you taste less, not nothing, but less ... know what I mean?) But actually, believing what experts say - that you have not much immunity and are immune only for a short time - the re-infection or "coming in contact with the virus again" can MAYBE even have a good side: when the virus is not completely gone but the body encounters it still (in sub-sickening concnetrations), the defenses maybe remmber the virus longer and will not entirely stop the antibody production, thus maybe resulting in greater resistency or even immunity when the virus returns "big time" in winter...?
