Tested Positive - Me Can I use edibles while recovering?

0 Upvotes

Hey guys so I started feeling sick Sunday and came back positive Monday. Today I’m already feeling improvement in my symptoms and hoping to be negative by the weekend. I have a lot of plans with friends for Halloween/my bday. Would it be bad if I took some edibles this weekend?

Vaccine - Discussion Flu shot while still having covid symptoms?

0 Upvotes

Hey, I posted some time ago. My current infection started on October 4th and went up and down, it got better and worse. Currently I feel okish, but I still have some symptoms, that are sometimes better and sometimes worde: cough and muscle twitches. No fever anymore. I should have had a flu shot on monday, but I moved that to monday next week. Now I'm panicking a bit, if it's a good idea to get that shot next week, because my symptom severity is so unpredictable. I also had Long Covid (not ME) two years ago, the symptoms lessened over time. I really fear a comeback of Long Covid. What do you suggest?

Tested Positive - Me Cluster migraines?

• Upvotes

So I first came down with covid October 3rd, so 3 and a half weeks ago and it's been tough trying to get my energy back. Felt pretty good last week, but this past Monday I woke up with a very bloodshot eye as though I had blown a blood vessel, only I also became very light and sound sensitive. I thought I had some kind of infection, but the doctors told me it was a cluster migraine. I've never had any migraines of any kind in my whole life and almost never even get headaches, so this has been very bizarre to me. I'm a lot better than yesterday or Monday, but bright lights are still unusually bright to me and sounds seem louder than usual.

Has anyone else gone through something similar coming out of covid? Again, no prior history of migraines or even headaches.

Tested Positive - Me Post covid anxiety and heart rate/ BP

• Upvotes

Hey y'all,

Long story short, I was hospitalized for what I thought to food poisoning, that turned out to be covid (or a stomach virus plus covid), and had a pretty traumatic experience. I got severely dehydrated from the nausea/diahrea and needed IV fluids to rehydrate. My resting HR was 120 when I got there and didn't drop after I rehydrated and felt normal, so the docs wouldnt let me leave. Them the normal covid symptoms settled in my resting HR bumped to 140-150. After a battery of tests, they found my heart was fine and not showing signs of damage. Only late in the evening they found out I had covid, which explained the heart rate. I ended up leaving the hospital with instructions to come back if my resting HR did drop back below 110. The following days felt like normal covid, and my HR dropped back down to 60-80bpm. However, my blood pressure started to climb up to the 144/80s, so now I'm monitoring. This makes me very anxious, which I can feel. I now constantly feel anxious, and I can't check my resting HR without feeling anxious about it, which gives me results in the 90-100bpm range. I was always a slightly anxious person, but now I feel anxious all the time. Any heart beat or weird feeling sets me off. I'm terrified of winding up back in the hospital. It's been a week today since I first came down with covid. I've had covid twice and never had a issue with it, nor did I monitor my heart rate then because I didn't realize anything odd. Anyone else have a similar experience? Did you recover? Any tips? I feel like I'm trapped in a feedback loop of anxiety and elevated HR and BP.
