Cory Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 I remember following @sodfather journal and decided to document mine as well. I felt like I was extremely hung over all day and haven’t had a drink in weeks so I just brushed it off as a head cold. So On my way back from the cabin I call the wife and she asked me to go get a rapid test. I did and it came back positive. Had to call my superintendent at work and tell him right away . Hopefully nobody else is infected! As I sit here at 3 am I can feel the fever starting to set in. I have the chills and a pretty dry cough. I’m quarantined to the basement. My wife put the gate up and the dogs are sitting at the top of the stairs whining. My youngest sons birthday is Tuesday and I won’t be able to see him witch is heartbreaking even though he’s right up stairs. 2 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cory Posted December 13, 2020 Author Share Posted December 13, 2020 So it’s been about 24 hours since my positive test and the chills are gone. I just feels like a nasty head cold. It was nice if the wife to finally send some food down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cory Posted December 14, 2020 Author Share Posted December 14, 2020 2 days in and I am feeling a lot less congested in my head. I bet if the bills lost last night I would be feeling worse though! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sodfather Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Dam sucks to hear @Cory make out out soon . Time to catch up on you Jackie Chan movies and Rambo’s. Tylenol helps with the body aches 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BizCT Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Good Luck, Cory. I didn't get the head cold symptoms, but had the body aches. I took 2 Tylenol before bed a few nights and it helped a lot. Stay hydrated- water, gatorade, etc. drink a ton of fluids. And keep taking your daily multi-vitamin.

Cory Posted December 15, 2020 Author Share Posted December 15, 2020 Good morning world! Day three in the Covid quarantine, woke up feeling better than yesterday I really think this is almost passed. My lower back and hips are extremely sore. I’m used to never sitting and moving all day so this lounging around stuff has me sore. I’m going to try and tackle some small jobs or should I say create some small jobs to do today down in my hole. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cory Posted December 15, 2020 Author Share Posted December 15, 2020 I toughest part of today is definitely the fact that it’s my youngest 9th birthday today. I can only FaceTime with him and he’s right upstairs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cory Posted December 16, 2020 Author Share Posted December 16, 2020 Day 4 of another fun filled day in quarantine. I feel good not 100% probably 85%. Walking on the treadmill for an hour yesterday definitely helped with the hip soreness. I just want to plead with everyone to please take all precautions to prevent catching this. Even though I didn’t get the extreme sickness this sucks. Stopping life is so damn boring. Take care of yourselves! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mlammerhirt Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Smart man....stay active....push through the pain.
