Bilirubin posted:Covid, day 11: still niggling cough, will no doubt take time until I will be able to resume my normal exercise routine. About to take another RAT: place your bets folks, place your bets. Smart money is on positive at 3 to 2. I don't remember who it was, but I believe someone in the fitness thread took a month off from their routine after getting over covid. Hope your test is negative. edit: found the post Pentecoastal Elites posted:It took me almost a month exactly from when I started feeling sick until I got to a point where I felt like I could put in a decent week. I dropped my weights down around 20% and that ended up feeling pretty good. This week I'm back up to about where I was and don't feel any worse off. Unless covid has swiss cheesed my brain and I can't tell the difference anymore. Greg Legg has issued a correction as of 18:42 on Apr 16, 2022 |

lol that capitalism gave COVID an optimized development pipeline of unvax -> vax -> vax + mAB populations with increasing selectivity and then just said "Ok that looks good, now everyone go get it!" I have to admit, capitalism does get results

I was at targets fan aisle today thinking of new CR cube designs since some of the fans don’t need shrouds . there was one you can wall mount that is probably quieter than a box fan. I did get my mini filters in so time to build the mini one.

Sorry that your family isn't on the same page, it really sounds like the ultimate nightmare. I have no idea what I'll ever do if my wife breaks. Good job on openly insulting the executives, I daydream about doing this all the time even though I'm unemployed now.

Someone in my apartment building was having a huge party. When I was coming back in with my groceries to make tacos, I heard a guy between coughs saying he was upset that the party was spread all over the building.

Thanks, time for the 15 minute wait. I am at least getting good at swabbing, but each time I swab my cheeks I regret not going to the dentist when we were at like our all time low levels. I'm starting to fear I'll turn into another buddykins Not drinking in nearly two weeks does slowly lower weight despite ack of exercise so, silver linings?

Insanite posted:yeah, i've been getting desperate and thinking about this, but, uh, not sure how to avoid giving my kid covid if i'm traveling from a northeastern airport to germany without liquidating my 401k to charter a private jet. Private jet is probably $160,000 round trip NY to Berlin. I’d pay $5000 in a heartbeat. Let’s get 20-40 people together. And why not Havana?

over the past ~14 days i had a sore throat that moved around and then dived deep into my chest and gave me the worst coughing "lungs full of fiberglass" destroy my voice resting heart rate up 20+ bpm overnight. also had 10 negative pcr tests during that time. last night, my girlfriend, who has the same thing and also a slew of negative pcr tests, couldn't catch her breath from coughing. i have an oximeter and it doesn't look like we ever dropped below 96 but boy, either this is the world's worst hellcold or there's a pcr-evading strain in boston

Did you try the iHealth lateral flow tests out of interest? If you both had it that bad but no loss of smell or taste it could legitimately have been a nasty cold.

it's really stupid I didn't realize this ages ago, but rapid tests can be purchased with HSA funds if you've burnt through the government tests (and also have an HSA through work). Amazon even has a special HSA payment option you can use

Don't worry I bet they will announce a new generation of rapid tests any day now, and the variant specific boosters should be ready in a week or two I would guess.
