I know I was agreeing with youExactly....That is why I clarified he’s a marvel in his field. I didn’t like him originally but I read up about him and I changed my opinion in respect of his credentials...not on the reasons I had originally judged him. That’s why I posted my comment.
I read it that way too glad i wasn't the only oneI'm very tired. I read that as "full of people dogging." Was rather shocked at your choice of location, not to mention the lack of social distancing
As I said, I have no idea if it was. Would be daft to claim otherwise. Apart from the shortness of breath, the taste and smell thing made me wonder about it though (mainly because it was unusual for me in illness). The only time I've experienced it previously was with Glandular Fever.Yeah is a categorical symptom at times of it that (though not everyone gets all of them), and smell and taste are highly closely linked as well

I will still hold on to my hope that I've been there and done it though. It makes me feel more able to cope and I just don't want to be that ill again any time so soon.
Oh, darling, I understand. It is tough. I go through days of being ok and then some days crying every hour with panic. I have been doing online workouts but I am not loving them, it's just not the same as going to the gym. I think my partner and I are gonna try doing workouts together. We have decided to try and only go to the grocery store every 2 weeks from now on...to limit out exposure to the virus and to other people in case we are carrying it too. It's a scary time but we are lucky to have a good community here. I hope you enjoyed your jaffa cakes...sometimes we just need a little bit of comfort. xSo was talking to a friend on the phone about lockdown expection vs reality anyone else feeling like this?
At the start of lock down I was like I need to be positive and think of productive things I can do in the house. I thought "I will make myself a timetable like what mums and dads are doing for their kids. I will make sure I have a good sleeping and eating routine. I'm going to practise my cooking skills, learn more sign language, do at home workouts, write poetry and a journal during this time. I will stay in touch with people as much as possible so I don't feel alone. I will apply for college starting in September and hope lock down is over by then"
One week later - I'm laying in bed all day, scrolling through Facebook, Instagram and Tattle. I am roughly having a five minute panic every hour.Trying to stay positive yet thinking I won't be here in two weeks and I need to message everyone goodbye it's been nice knowing ya. My biggest accomplishment's during this time is probably every laugh reaction ive had on here. I spend hours debating in my head if it's safe to order chips and cheese driving myself mad. I think my legs are gonna seize up from not moving from my bed. Was so annoyed with myself tonight because I went to tesco for the first time in a week for an unnecessary but felt necessary snack of Jaffa Cakes worrying about who touched the box before me thinking shit what if I die because I caught corona on my trip to the shops all for some fucking Jaffa Cakes. Although 10/10 they were gid. I feel like I'm back on day 0 since I've left the house now and even more convinced that I caught it on my trip out and have two weeks to live.
I saw that and it made me feel like I couldn’t breath! although I didn’t like that she was like oh I haven’t left the house for 3 weeks so I must have got it from packages etc.. and then stating in her description she had actually gone out for food before she had symptomsThere is an influencer called TheLauraBlair and she has coronavirus. She shared a video on her page of what it is like and she can barely catch her breath while talking. It is so scary.
We had the same last week. Our household of 4, plus my dad and mother in law, it didn’t take long to get to the 80.Its not with tesco is it? They have limited online shops to 80 items. We have 6 in our house so a normal shop is over 100 items for one weeks shop.
He may take a bit longer to adjust to his new routineMy husband has gone back to work on a bloody building site () after two weeks self isolating due to kids having fevers (pretty sure not CV).
The scary thing is my son has asthma and so I spoke to the GP as he is on a high dose combi inhaler. Her advice to minimise risk has made me even more scared! She said my husband needs to wipe car steering wheel and door handles every time he gets in there from work, strip outer clothes and shoes outside of home (garage or porch) and leave them out of house, go straight in to wash hands and face with soapy water before greeting kids.
Last night he rang as he got back, I opened all doors, put shower on etc and the silly twat touched the shower door WITH WORKY HANDS and I nearly killed him...
I thought I read if they tried to monetise videos due to Coronavirus YouTube would stop it? Not sure if it’s true or not. I wish it was. Soul suckersSurprised some of these Youtubers have not made Covid-19 results-anxious faced thumbnail sponsored videos.
I’ve heard this too, if CV is mentioned, the video is demonetised - hence why virtually all of them are making their videos a Coronavirus free zone - “I’m doing it for you guys, a place for you to escape to” yeah right, nothing to do with money at all then?!I thought I read if they tried to monetise videos due to Coronavirus YouTube would stop it?

Oh bless you, I also have trauma issues and anxiety. I cannot watch the news or anything medical after some medical procedures years ago, so for me this is also one huge trigger. My health anxiety is running wild. You’re coping amazingly well. I really hope you continue to improve and please keep us posted. Hugs xI read but don’t post much but just wanted to say how much you have all helped me. Like a lot of others I have anxiety and actually have diagnosed PTSD and health anxiety from a previous operation that went very wrong.Normally I live in my happy bubble where I avoid all news particularly medical, but getting the facts and info from you guys in a level headed way, with the odd joke thrown in, has helped me cope so far, and stay informed. I have been self isolating since Thursday with COVID symptoms (dry cough, sore throat, headache, breathless) and although Thursday night I was hysterical and was planning my will.... the symptoms haven’t got any worse, and I am calm resting, and reading the facts here has kept me fairly level headed.
I was joking about the testing sponsorship, I think there are rules against it...but I wouldn't put it past Jonathan Joly to pop up on Harley Street with a 'friend' who just happens to do tests.I thought I read if they tried to monetise videos due to Coronavirus YouTube would stop it?

This is me every day. Every time I touch my face and rub my nose I think oh shit 2 weeks from now I’m gone, and I’ve been in my house for 2 weeks. Every time my husband has to pop to the shop if urgent I panic and feel I’m back on day 0 and wait 2 weeks to see if he starts with symptoms. If I hear on kids sneeze or cough I think omg no. My kids keep begging for a takeaway and i say no and tell them how risky it is, I then fear I’ve worried them. Argh this virus needs to do one. I can’t imagine we will ever feel the same again after this amount of fear.So was talking to a friend on the phone about lockdown expection vs reality anyone else feeling like this?
