Knowing of the Unknown:
Today is April 3rd. A lot has happened since I last posted part 2 of my experience with Covid-19. I wasn't feeling well enough to write so I haven't been able to be as "real time" as I had thought. I want to start with March 30th. On that day, I thought my symptoms were more manageable than the last few days. Things were looking up. Breathing wasn't labored, My blood oxygen level was maintaining between 98-100% and I wasn't feeling as run down so I was able to go outside for awhile. We had no snow on the ground, so I had decided to try to rake a little of our yard so that we could get ahead on spring cleaning. I was able to last about 20 minutes before I had to stop. I was becoming tired very fast which I expected. I was still able to get some stuff done which was a plus. Mind you, I was still dealing with what I'd call lung and throat burn and moments of dizziness but It wasn't enough to incapacitate or drag me down too hard. It felt good to be able to do something after feeling so ill for over 10 days.

Knowing of the Unknown:
Today is March 28th. It has been four days since I was diagnosed with Covid. In part 1 of my story "Knowing of the Unknown: A Covid-19 Story," I originally talked about use of a oximeter to track blood oxygen levels as scientists have come to discover that you can have a drop in your blood oxygen levels before even experiencing respiratory issues. I explained what was ideal for blood oxygen levels as well as what some of my symptoms looked like. Today I want to touch base on how my symptoms changed since my last post.

Knowing of the Unknown:
I got the test result phone call on my birthday. "You have Covid." Not the words I wanted to hear. Not me. What awaits me in the unknown? Knowing I have this virus that has killed thousands including people I know and have known for years scares me to no end. My Husband was lucky to get through it alive and he is way healthier than I am. Or so we thought. We found out through a turn of events that he had something serious going on. To protect him, I will not disclose details but the events have altered his life forever. He still beat covid. I am extremely thankful that he survived all that has happened to him these past two weeks. I knew it was inevitable that I was going to get covid. We were both exposed around the same time. The weird thing is that I didn't start feeling anything until 17 days after being exposed.
