She gracefullyshared his story withEat this, not that!In order to help others, but asked to remain anonymous. Now she opens on the nine things she wants she would have known before contracting the disease.

I think we can all agree that, retrospect, we want to know more aboutCOVID-19 [Feminine before his conduct in an international crisis. We are flooded by the news andShared links on social media By friends and family, and it's hard to know what is done and what is the fiction. This can lead to stress, anxiety, as well as sharingdisinformation.

There are many unknowns about the virus given its novelty, but there are many things that I really want to know before contracting the virus. Although my story is just one of many cases, I hope it will help others to be more prepared if they contract it.

I would like to know ...

I went down with symptoms just a few days after the start of work at a distance, so it is clear that I had very probably contracted while working in the office. If only I had chosen to work at home (at least at least) a week earlier and practicing social distance, I may never have been infected. Especially in New York, where I am certainly taken in contact with an unlimited quantity of strangers in such a short period.

If I just had a typical headache, my drug drawer would have been equipped with everything I need.But when I fell ill, I realized that the only cure of the day I had was Ibuprofen, who should have aggravated the symptoms of Covid, a newly demystified theory by theWorld Health Organization.

I struggled also the pressure of the sinuses ofseasonal allergies And had not yet stocked on my alleged alleged loyal. Fortunately, I could quickly deliver me quickly on the first sign of symptoms, without contact, of course. If I could come back in time, I would have assured that I had a medicine allergy as well as Tylenol for cold and flu easily available to help me immediately.

At that time, it is essential that you have aPrimary care practice On site to call, should you show symptoms of the virus, but also, to mitigate your mind with the security of knowing your health care provider for you. It is also important to understand how they can take care of you during this time when many offices close and offer only virtual contacts.

I'm going to the same practice in recent years and they already had my latest information on the file, but I did not know how they would manage aCOVID-19 CASE.This brings me to my second challenge: my PCP did not come back to me with my test results or tips on how to deal with the disease up to three or four days after the hospital notified me that I tested positive. I would also like to have experienced their opening hours because it was very difficult to get them when I felt the sickly, which led to a lot of stress.

Even though I lived an extreme loss in appetite and sense of taste during my fight with Covid-19, a can ofSoup purchased in store It was still not as satisfying as a lot of house soup would have been. I would have liked to have the foresight to load myfreezer With meals made with all fresh ingredients, especially since I like to use my immersion mixer to do things like the soup and smoothies of Butternut squash.

For the safety of others, it is important to keep your workplace informed of your health in case others also had the contract. But do you know how your manager, HR executive leadership or your company would manage? Confirmed case or not, your business should communicate that you do not feel good at all staff. They can therefore be informed and act accordingly. Of course, underhipaa Your employer can not legally disclose your personal health information to the whole society. It is therefore important that you asked them how they plan to disclose suspected cases to the rest of the team.

It is also comforting to know how they will care individually. For example, Do you know how your manager and your business will take care of your health and your well-being during this period? Do you want to receive paid sick leave?Will they compréhenses or cold? Talk to your manager or HR representative about it. This way you will have a clear understanding of their procedures and it's one less thing you have to worry.

Knowing that I tested positive, I had to tell people that I was recently VélUS me down - I am particularly thinking stuck me think that friends, family and colleagues.Have they afraid of me because of the way the contagious virus contagious? I was afraid of being ashamed,stigmatizedand ostracized by others to do something wrong, even if it was not my fault, I got sick. Anyway, I was very concerned about how others would react because the world is so exhausted by the virus I, at the time, had.

As soon as I felt better, I was comfortable sharing my diagnosis with family, friends, colleagues and even on social media. I felt like a weight had been lifted from my shoulders. Many of my friends and my friends had so many questions about my experience with the virus and, although it seems to affect other differently, I hope I was able to soothe their minds with my story.

My main beam of light on my recovery was that I could use my experience to help someone else. Emotionally, this crisis affects all of us very differently, sadness, anxiety, depression is among the main emotions and feelings that I heard the most. I wanted to give others hope by telling them my recovery. Physically, many people are considering every health change as a symptom, so I reiterated what I went through and strongly encouraged that they were talking to a professional health care provider to rising details.Also, I plan toGive my plasma to a local hospital for research and help others who are getting Covid-19.

In addition to the orders given by my doctor to remain isolated for 14 days after the development of symptoms, what could I be sure that I was no longer contagious? What signs do they confirm that I was completely recovered?There are several steps theCDC suggests taking before stopping the home insulation. Technically, the only way to confirm that you are no longer contagious is to be reused, however, as I will continue to outpace social, I did not ask for another test. Moreover, with such a shortage of testing, I thought it would be best to allow only my body to heal and comfort of the house, where I could separate myself from others.

I can tell you now, this is not easy, and I'm still learning what my new routine will look like.

Many questions have crossed my mind. What was life before Covid-19 is in the grip of the globe? How does one away for weeks at a time and with limited social interaction? My taste preferences and food would they be changed for good after Covid-19? Would I gain10 pounds that I lost back?

Prior toCOVID-19 [FeminineI had a lot of rest and hydration more than usual. So, then, I had to go step by step to enter a new routine: go to bed at the same time every night, not connecting to the first hour job in the morning, clean and disinfect my studio regularly (this one helps you I feel the most normal), cook meals with fresh ingredients, eat good health again, screen time limitation and learn to exercise at home (thank you, yoga!).

Let's hope this new routine will help get a new normal and who knows, maybe it will be even better than the one I had before.
