Coronavirus

Welcome to the ward of a disease that doesn’t exist

Hi, this time Wojtek here – Aga’s husband. I will share with you the story that happened to our family in December 2020 – not that we were not expecting, because it is impossible not to think about the possibility of coronavirus infection in the era of the prevailing pandemic, but somehow it is different to plan / think / suppose than be on the front lines that is, in the very epicenter of events.

 

Now take it please deep breath. But it’s really solid, like when you go outside in the spring in the morning… Nice feeling when you do it and feel the freshness of the air flowing in through your nose and filling your lungs completely. Now imagine if you can’t do this because something internally is preventing you. Pain, discomfort, cough – blockage. You try a second time – similar. Yes: it is felt by some people whose bodies have been infected by the coronavirus that affects mainly the respiratory tract. In some people (as you can see, fortunately, the vast majority of cases) the infection is asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic, but there are also cases – such as mine – that are “very symptomatic”. I would like to add that I am 36 years old, I do not smoke, I eat healthy as much as possible, I do not have diabetes, atherosclerosis, heart disease, coronary heart disease, asthma, oncological burden … and I did not have a selected primary care physician. Yes. There are also such cases – I regularly did prophylactic tests with hepatic, pancreatic or fecal occult blood packages, and everything was perfect there. But let’s start from the beginning.
