A bit difficult to walk around with a drip in the arm. Are your legs still sore?Well I have now spent a week in bed almost so not sure any more

Not really. If I squeeze them yes.A bit difficult to walk around with a drip in the arm. Are your legs still sore?
Luckily you didn't ignore it and went to the doctor.Not really. If I squeeze them yes.
It was never sore to walk. Sore to touch
No...How's your walking now? Are you able to walk a fair distance without feeling breathless?
Gosh! Surely as a hospital their system should auto switch with no down time.It takes ages if you hand it in. We did when we were checked out - no lie - more than an hour. And they had 3 power failures so the systems reset before they could print. Tills reset too.
As long as you're gaining your strength and health back day by day. That's what counts.No...
Which is probably why dr said 6 months.
I can walk further and longer than before.
If I want to walk further it is easier if I stop before I struggle for breath. Then walk a bit, stop again. Etc.
I can now at least manage going into a grocery store and buying what is needed.
Permitting I stay walking slow I can manage.
Stairs are better now as long as there are not too many.
As long as I can see improvement I am happy. Though there are still days when it feels worse. Then I look back to when I came home and compare to the current bad day. The bad day would still be better than back then.
I think that has also helped me cope better on a mental level.
Only have 3 antidepressants left. After that I either need to ask for more or go off them.
Got them because of waking up every night at 01:08, both in hospital and at home. I still don't know the significance of that time, will probably never find out.
Thanks for the update.No...

Yay!I am finally home.
Clearly I have not been paying attention for a few months. Had no idea you were still dealing with post-covid symtoms. Damn, hope you feel better soonHe has given me 5 days of antibiotics. If it is not fixed I will go back to my doc. Some people are never cured and some need a longer run with pills.
But they are no longer swollen and they are starting to look normal - no longer red
