[quote:Anonymous Coward 58787380:MV80MzQwNjA2XzgwMzQ2MTMxXzVDRTlEOUJC] [quote:Anonymous Coward 18972958:MV80MzQwNjA2XzgwMzQ1NDA5XzZENjE2RjRG] I went to the emergency doctor for breathing difficulty from a lung infection in November, which continued until December. I pretty much never get a full-on cold or flu. I was prescribed an inhaler to help with the breathing difficulty. After a day or two, I found I was using it too much so I went to see my primary doctor (who I almost never see since... I pretty much never had health issues until November). He gave me a long lasting inhaler and told me to use it every twelve hours for 4-5 days. After using that, I didn't have breathing issues, which let me have a full night's sleep. After 3-4 full night's sleep that allowed my body to heal and I didn't use the inhaler at all again. You may want to look into it, but because those types of medicines are for chronic sufferers and my use was off-label, my insurance would not pay for it--I understand it is quite expensive. Luckily he had a sample and gave it to me. [/quote] Holy crap I had to make sure I wasn't the one who wrote this thread. Same exact thing here. Never had asthma until after this. They gave me a $385 inhaler (Beriva of some shit like that) and that was AFTER insurance! I said no...fortunately got a sample from the doc, then gave me Symbicort cause the other stuff worked, but the Symbicort was way cheaper. I ave to use an Albuterol inhaler if I run. Sucks. [/quote]

I had the "flu" mid Jan. Except the flu test was negative. Antibiotics made it worse. It became severe lower resp infection, headaches and fever, then pnemonia. Recovering took a LONG TIME. My lungs would swell up and block my breathing. My mucus was like green glue in my lungs. Inhaler saved my life. Ive never experianced anything like this.
I thought I was better.
Just today I had another breathing attack. Lungs closed and felt like there was something I couldnt cough out. I was driving home from town over while on the phone with my husband so he could meet me half way with inhaler. I almost didnt make it. I almost crashed multiple times.
If I did have Covid19, Now I know why people havent recovered yet.
I think it has caused me to have athsma. The cough never truly went away. I cant see how this Virus could be worse then the hell I went thru with this sickness and the multiple near death instances. Im a a 25 year old that is very healthy. I truly believe covid19 was going around before it was official.
