April 15 Premature body temperature
At about 10 o'clock in the morning, I called the clinic near my home to explain the current situation, and the clinic replied that I would bring a mask and wait at the door of the clinic for examination and PCR examination. I wrapped myself tightly with two thick masks, walked to the clinic, and walked to the clinic in a high fever state, walking about 10 minutes, I felt very long for the first time. When I went to the clinic and was arranged to go to the temporary isolation plastic shed outside the door, the doctor quickly came over and did a PCR examination for me, which was a nasopharyngeal swab, and asked about the symptoms. After about 15 minutes of doing the test, the results came out, and it was indeed positive. The clinic took medicine for me and asked me to take medicine at home and recuperate at home. Two kinds of medicines were prescribed, one is a fever reducer, which is taken when the doctor orders it is above 38.5 degrees, and the other is a traditional Chinese medicine (kudzu soup)
The clinic prescribes two medications
Then the clinic this side contacted, the health center (similar to the domestic CDC) about ten minutes or so, the health center called, and confirmed the current physical condition with me, let me walk home first to take medicine, home recuperation, if you feel breathing difficulties or high fever convulsions, immediately contact the health center.

Because I lived alone, I was worried and called the health center. The health center sent someone to send blood oxygen saturation detection equipment, and the infected people's home recuperation precautions.

The first day of infection was spent in extreme discomfort and anxiety, taking antipyretic drugs, still had no effect, the body temperature was still maintained at 38.8 degrees, there was no appetite, severe headaches, basically just drinking some boiled water
On the night of the 15th, the body temperature was still high
In the state of high fever, spent a night, basically can't sleep at night, feel uncomfortable, sore throat, headache, muscle soreness, turning over, all kinds of worries and fears, stay up until dawn. At 8 o'clock in the morning, I began to feel chest tightness, and when I coughed, my chest cavity felt painful, and there was also a kind of not coming up, holding my breath, shortness of breath and insufficient breath. Looking at the blood oxygen saturation monitor, the blood oxygen fell down, it seems to be 95 bar (at this time it is already a little confused) The people at the health center told them to call the health center immediately if the blood oxygen saturation is lower than 95. Immediately called the people at the health center to explain the situation, and the operators kept comforting me, telling me to insist on staying awake, packing up two sets of change of clothes and preparing to go to the hospital. About 40 minutes or so from the health center car to the downstairs, two nurses went upstairs to pick me up, and I was admitted to the hospital.
During this period, the whole person was not in a very good state, the consciousness was a little confused, the consciousness was confused, the headache was severe, the chest cavity was painful, the feeling was burned, and the throat was dumb and could not speak. The doctor directly put on an oxygen mask for me, the other two nurse sisters gave me ice cubes, physical cooling, while talking to me, let me not worry, my situation is not serious, will soon recover, during the period seems to have given me to use drugs to improve blood oxygen saturation, I am very confused in my mind, I remembered that there are many things that have not been explained, in case it is so confessed, I have not said goodbye to my family, I want to take the phone to make a phone call with my family, the feeling of weakness, coupled with lack of oxygen, even this action can not be completed... Helpless, uneasy, the heart understands everything, tears straight down, this moment I am really panicked, the brain flashed a lot of pictures, like a marquee like a fragment, the temperature is still as high as ever, the fever is hazy, I took anti-fever medicine, playing a little drop did not improve much, at four o'clock in the afternoon when the doctor came to say that I have been suffering from high fever for two days, has not been reduced fever, gave me an enema to reduce fever. Dinner arrived at the hospital at five o'clock, and I hadn't eaten much in two days.
Hospital dinner (grilled fish, boiled pumpkin, radish miso soup, salad)
After taking a sip of soup, I felt that there was no taste, I thought it was a hospital meal, relatively light so there was no taste, and then I ate a bite of fish, still no taste, like the feeling of chewing wax, I realized that my taste failed, forced myself to eat two pieces of boiled pumpkin, drank half a bowl of soup, and dinner ended.
On the third and fourth days of infection, the whole person is still sluggish, after the enema fever last night, the body temperature is basically maintained at about 38 degrees, the temperature can be slightly lower during the day, and then the fever occurs at night, the blood oxygen saturation reaches the normal value range, the doctor helped me take off the oxygen mask, and the breathing is relatively stable. The symptoms are still cough, coughing when the chest cavity will feel pain, headache and sore throat, intermittent burning for four days, muscle aches and weakness, no sense of taste and smell. The doctor came to check and said that my vital signs were stable, there should be no big problem, and after the body temperature returned to normal, I could do a check and go home for recuperation and observation.
April 20th, the fifth day of admission to the hospital did a comprehensive examination, lung CT, blood draw, and nasopharyngeal swab examination, fortunately there is no problem with the lungs, before seeing some patients on the Internet will have fibrosis, blood is also very good, body temperature is about 37 degrees, basically normal body temperature, nasal swab PCR examination is still positive, the doctor said that this turn yin is about 10 days, the outbreak is more serious, the shortage of beds, arrange me to be discharged on the 21st, go home for observation.
On April 21, he was discharged from the hospital, the car of the health center was delivered to the doorstep, the doctor instructed, go home and drink more water, have no sense of taste, and force yourself to supplement protein and vc, prescribe anti-fever drugs and Traditional Chinese medicine punches. In the past few days, except for a slightly hoarse throat, there are basically no other symptoms, but I am still in a state of olfactory and taste disorders, and there is no taste in eating anything.
Today, April 29th, I went to pcr test, I am already negative, and I can freely move back to normal lifestyle. 14 days have passed since the diagnosis to today, and there is no danger coming.
Talk about the sequelae, the current state is that the sense of fatigue is more serious, easy to get sleepy, tired, the sense of smell and taste is still not restored, the appetite is reduced, two weeks of time is like a world away, lost 10 pounds.
I firmly believe that the sense of smell and taste will be slowly restored, it may be a month or it may be half a year or more, a healthy body is really more important than anything, real understanding, losing health, everything is floating clouds.
The next thing we have to do is to maintain a good diet and living habits and adjust our mentality. The epidemic is not over, but life will always go on, may you and I walk and cherish.
