COVID FLU for Karen

Karen suffered from the COVID flu from Monday, July 28th, until today, August 5th. She tested twice positive for having the COVID flu virus, and today a negative result. We stayed home together the entire period. We cancelled all social engagements. She had a very hard time with this flu.

Recuperating from COVID 19 Flu

 Karen and I were both were infected by the COVID 19 Flu virus on May 21st., 2024.

We have both had 2 basic COVID flu shots and a third; plus, the regular annual flu shot in 2023.

We both stayed home alone, rested, stayed warm, drank plenty of fluids, and regained some appetite.  Both of us are coughing frequently with yellow sputum, no fever, fatigue, tired, weak, aching muscles, having sinus infections, etc.

Tiresome, frustrating, disappointing, unstoppable.  So it goes.  

Reading, napping, Smithsonian Aerial America episodes, map reading, resting.

Unfortunately, my heart flipped back into AFib on June 2nd.  

Sadly, over 1,140,722 have died from COVID 19 and 1,147,399 have died from pneumonia.

Was I scared, worried, anxious ... yes, seriously at times.

We did not visit our physician or the hospital emergency room. We did get advice and medicine by phone from our physician.  

Not much energy or interest in writing, blogging, research.  Mostly reading, watching television, sleeping, harmonica playing, 

COVID Flu Setback in January 2024

I have been seriously ill from the COVID flu since January 2, 2024.

I hope to recover and return to blogging around January 30, 2024.

Please excuse my previous three posts made in error.  I have deleted them.  My illness and brain fog led to the mistake.
