30 minutes on Zwift this morning but it took it out of me. Ended it with a little bowl of soup and a nap until 2pm. I got up and had some lunch and am about to go back to bed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I don’t have a fever anymore, but my lungs are stuffed full of cotton and I get weak \/ dizzy and sick feeling if I stand up for more than a few minutes at a time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I developed the fever and illness back on the 12th, so it is going on being a minute that I’ve been sick. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yesterday I noticed I had lost my sense of taste and smell. I can hold vinegar up to my nose and not detect even a hint of vinegar, or any smell at all. It’s a nifty party trick. Makes cooking a bit difficult. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We’ve all pitched in to do a chore or two everyday. I did dishes yesterday and I usually do one load of laundry a day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’ve started eating kinda normally again and my chest has gone back to tight and hurting. I wonder if Covid causes heart issues as that was what I first noticed, and a friend of a friend went to the hospital with a heart attack and there found out he had Covid-19. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Those who had had covid-19 had a 72% increased risk of heart failure, 63% increased risk of heart attack, and 52% increased risk of stroke compared with controls.<\/p>
The researchers wrote that the increased risks \u201cwere evident regardless of age, race, sex, and other cardiovascular risk factors, including obesity, hypertension, diabetes, chronic kidney disease, and hyperlipidemia; they were also evident in people without any cardiovascular disease before exposure to covid-19, providing evidence that these risks might manifest even in people at low risk of cardiovascular disease.\u201d However, the way covid-19 infection might cause cardiovascular problems remains unclear, they said.<\/p>The BMJ https:\/\/www.bmj.com\/content\/376\/bmj.o378<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
At the moment it is very difficult to either eat a ‘heart healthy’ diet, or to work out and increase demand on the heart muscle. But with luck, when I regain some of my strength I will be able to gradually improve my over all health. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
