Well after a ridiculously long quarentine I finally was able to return to work. I was officially finished on the 21st (my final quarentine day) and went right to work the next day! Man o man I missed work. It was a little difficult getting back into the swing of things. I was extra cautious … Continue reading First day back to work

I bought a laptop…
So while I was quarantined and had little to do besides sitting in my room, I surfed the internet and fell in love with a laptop. So I bought it, this little piece of nostalgia. It's beautiful, it's old, it's powered by freaking 4 AA batteries! A truly amazing thing to have. A TRS-80 Model … Continue reading I bought a laptop…
Final days left of Quarentine
Well, as the title suggests I am at the very tail end of my quarantine for Covid-19 symptoms. I can say it's been annoying to say the least. I don't like being sick, and (more importantly) I don't like being unable to work! Seriously, the ability to be productive and feel like you've done something … Continue reading Final days left of Quarentine
Phlegm and hack city
A wonderful way to start my day is the resumption of virus symptoms. My lungs are filled with phlegm, I keep coughing it up, and it seems like it never ends. Worse yet, my elderly mother is starting to cough more and have phlegm and just complained about the back of her throat hurting, never … Continue reading Phlegm and hack city
Covid-19 Updates
So it's been a few days into my quarantine and I felt it was time for a quick update. My symptoms are rapidly improving, thanks to lots of bedrest, fluids, herbals, vitamins, and meds. I still get very winded, have a cough, wierd dry spot in back of throat (where the soreness used to be). … Continue reading Covid-19 Updates
Diagnosis: Covid-19
As a precaution while waiting for my second Coronavirus test, I went and got a chest xray and explained what was going on with me. After careful review and consideration of my symptoms and the xray, the doctor stated that I certainly don't have pneumonia. The doctor then told me : we think you have … Continue reading Diagnosis: Covid-19
Today’s Symptoms
Well the good news is that my symptoms have declined markedly. The bad news is that I still have symptoms and apparently am still sick. Here's a short list: 1. Temperature is within normal range 2. Pulse Ox is within normal range 3. I still have a sore throat, albeit not as painful 4. I … Continue reading Today’s Symptoms
Another Covid Test
So, as most of the original symptoms are still present in my life. I talked to my family and then my doctor's office. I described what has been going on and they referred me to a local hospital for another Covid-19 test immediately. So I go, it's a drive through test. Unlike the first test, … Continue reading Another Covid Test
Something different…
I wake up today, still coughing, still with a sore throat, and ready to ask my doctor for a second Covid-19 test. I need to be sure that I don't have it. I don't think have it at this point, but I know getting a second test and showing it negative will calm the fears … Continue reading Something different…
Pulse Oximeter Levels
While waiting for the results of my Covid-19 test, I thought it would be prudent for science sake and of course posterity to post some of my oxygen levels on here. I noticed that the level decreases rapidly with any effort and results in a labored breathing and increased heart rate. This was 92 and … Continue reading Pulse Oximeter Levels
