Hang in there ... heard somewhere that intense heat helps with the virus as in extremely hot shower heat... on the other hand maybe dry heat would work better idk it might help might not but it would be something I would try
edit: that ain't medically verified at all that I know of so yeah
I had no idea you were sick!!! I don't know what I can do except wish you well. If I can do anything let me know.
I could post a photo of a tt4.7l merc motor with a heat shield that was partially eaten by mice if that would help?

The wife and I have you in our thoughts and prayers, and I know you'll get through this!
Evening update is that the afternoon was the best I've felt in over a week. Breathing 8/10. Energy level 6-7/10 (I'm staying resting to conserve it), but hunger has returned, including specific cravings for foods for the first time in a week plus. There's a chance that if this holds through tomorrow, my lines will come out.
Great news, I'm hoping you continue to improve.

MOMENTUM, use it wisely,slow car faster and faster!
In reply to captdownshift :
Awesome news all around! I'm curious, what specific foods are you craving?
In reply to EastCoastMojo :
Tacos, which i honestly never crave, I'm normally a fajita, quesadilla guy. I went with chicken thighs and wild rice as I had it available to make.
I did t know you were sick, I wish you a fast recovery.
Also my theory is when you really crave certain foods, your body is telling you that you desperately need something in those foods
Glad to hear you are on the mend.
Glad to hear you're pushing through to the back side of this thing. Said a prayer for you and will continue to until you sound the "all clear".
In reply to captdownshift :
Interesting. I'm going to eat tacos every day in the hopes that they contain the magic elixr that will prevent me getting the virus
Really glad to hear you're feeling better man, keep us updated on your progress please!
Sending good vibes. Rest, but not too much.
Didn't realize you were fighting Covid-19 man. I'm very glad to hear you are feeling a little better and hope that you continue to get well! I'll keep you in my thoughts & prayers. If anybody deserves to kick this thing in the balls it is definitely you!
Glad to hear you're feeling better - will be praying for your continued recovery!

In reply to captdownshift :
Are you fighting this alone at home? Glad to hear things are a little better. Hang in there Bud.
In reply to captdownshift :
Whew- it was a little unnerving to read the title and the first post. Great to hear you are doing better.

I'm back home now as I can change my own lines. I have friends and co-workers checking in on me and go to get vitals checked in a tent by a tech in full ppe 2x daily now.
I'm up 6lb today, hunger is normal to above normal still and there's talks of my lines potentially coming out this evening. My my recent iv treatment was 7pm yesterday and I'm still making forward progress. They're talking potential release from quarantine date ranges in the 3/31-4/2 range if things hold through the rest of today and tomorrow.
