Get well soon V !!!! Hope he’s ok. He got so big and beautiful!!!!! Love the paintings . All the doctors are doing telahealth. At least they can prescribe something. I have asthma, all my doctors visits , no one wants to check my breathing. Because they are all scared. It’s becoming a sh******show 😱😱😱😱😱😱 

Yep. Doctors don't like seeing you if you're sick. 

Hope you both are back to 100% ASAP! 💙🙏 

Thank you, lovelies ❤️ He is not as bad as myself. I hope I get to get up tomorrow... day 5 and I’m still stuck in bed 😢  

Your little one is growing. sorry about covid hitting you both 

Take care of yourself and your son. Feel better soon. 

I remember that you are vaccinated. So i guess your symptoms are mild. Anyway, do not trust the pulse oxymeter. Lots of cases here of three doses vaccinated people that had pneumonia although having normal oxygen indexes. The healthy part of the lungs worked hard until it could not go more and collapsed an then a sudden drop of the oxygen happened ending up in the hospital. Fever for days is not a good sign. Only X ray showed the truth from the very beginning when fever would not stop soon. 

Prayers to your family!!! 😇.... We had a bout with covid here but recovering. My first year in Indiana , ofcourse labor shortage. But got online doc to take care of me, urgent care clinics in the state are scam operations  

unfortunately you doctor is correct— the primary thing is just supportive care. Stay home, don’t contaminate others. Here in the USA Omicron is the predominant strain right now, thankfully. Miserable, killer sore throat, maybe some fever, cough, seldom a drop in oxygen levels. Most of the symptoms and issues mentioned by TASSOS67 do not apply to Omicron, especially if you have been vaccinated by 2 and received the booster. treat your symptoms and rest. 

Well Kenna, with all of my respect, I received help (and treatment) from another doctor who was willing to to take care of me. I didn’t receive any booster, as it’s been only 4 months from my last vaccine. Each jab was a nightmare by the way but that’s another story... 

Velvetee— well the most important thing is that you are doing ok and I’m so glad. None of this is easy at all. My sister has less than desirable reactions to the vaccine as well. She had COVID In December of 2019 and almost died and is now a long hauler. She would never survive another bout. Where you live can they test to Determine whether you have Delta or Omicron?  

Thank you 🙏 Kenna 😘 day 6 and I slept all day again. Yes the variant can be tested but I haven’t done so. I’m terribly tired, can’t read nor watch anything 😢
