I was diagnosed when going to the hospital for a different issue 2 weeks ago. 3 weeks ago on Monday I was running a fever, so I immediately scheduled a COVID test. Three days later I got the results back as negative. So the issue must have been my foot that had an infected wound (also after an MRI that showed a ruptured tendon in my foot...WTF!). Fast forward another week and I'm admitted to the hospital. When I got to the hospital I told them I tested negative for COVID. They ran a test anyway. It came back positive.
So I was in the hospital with 3 issues, 2 foot things and COVID. At the worst part of it, I was extremely weak (like seriously, getting out of bed to go to the bathroom had me fully out of breath), running fevers constantly and had shortness of breath. The doctors said I had a very mild case of COVID cause most patients needed to be on oxygen just to continue getting the oxygen they needed to live. My oxygen levels were always in the 95-98% range.
Long story short, to this day, I am still feeling the shortness of breath. The more I do deep breathing and hard coughing exercises, the better day I have, and each day gets better. I can't imagine having to be in tip top shape and compete at the highest of levels through this. Heck, I can't imagine going to play at the local hang out...
Glad you are doing better now! Now, for that foot!
