Once inside is different, of course, but just avoiding the 45+ minutes of standing outside will spare me a shitload of nerve and arthritic pain. Seriously, I spend half my Saturdays recovering from shopping Friday evening. |

s-tier skips the lines completely, a-tier can schedule a shopping appointment whenever, b and c get assigned shopping times, d get their neighborhoods seeded with expired mre's by the national guard and make deals with local warlords to access them

Sometimes while browsing byob I want to grab my screen and hug it intensively. It may disconnect some cables, but at least there is a hope that my online friends can feel a virtual hug transporting through the netherworld

GODSPEED JOHN GLENN posted:Well, my wife just got sick and has all the symptoms of covid 19. We just got tested today and were have to wait a couple of days to get the results. The thing is we're both in high risk groups for our various health problems and it's scaring the hell out of me. It's also bullshit because I'm the only one who had even left the house in weeks and I feel fine. gently caress. gently caress man, that's nerve wracking, here's hoping good health comes quickly.

It is the law now to carry a mask in public. I'm ok with this, but I hope no one gets hurt when deprived of my beautiful face

I'd like to nominate this song for this thread's music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=loOWKm8GW6A GODSPEED JOHN GLENN posted:So, I don't feel at all sick yet, but there's a sound in the bottom of my lungs? I don't like the sound. I don't like the sound of that at all. If your lips or fingers turn blue, if you get out of breath after minimal exertion- get thee to a hospital asap; if what I had in January was covid-19 (I was in Barcelona, Spain January 1st-12th, I'm pretty sure I got it...) I would feel like poo poo, then feel like I was past it, then feel WORSE than I felt; it ended with a crunchy feeling in the top of my lungs, so if you think your lung capacity is reduced or you got fluid in your lungs, take action or call 911. Be safe, GSJG! |

Is it something you hear or feel or did you listen to it via stethoscope? The latter can hear crazy stuff if you're not used to hearing it regularly because the lungs do some fancy magic to keep themselves clean and it takes quite some experience even for doctors to distinguish between what's cool and what needs checking out. Also yes, hope your wife is doing fine and everything is smooth sailing and no positive tests and stuff

GODSPEED JOHN GLENN posted:So, I don't feel at all sick yet, but there's a sound in the bottom of my lungs? I don't like the sound. if you have a pulse oximeter or can get your hands on one, that seems to be a pretty reliable way to tell if your breathing capacity is diminished. I was reading an op-ed by a physician saying that, unusually with this disease, a lot of people don't realize they have pneumonia because they don't notice that they're having difficulty breathing. if you have a low reading (one thing I saw said if you're consistently 94% or below), talk with a doctor but it may be time to head to a hospital. stay safe, buddy

Note that arterial oxygen saturation is a very individual value that can vary based on age, general health, how much sports you do and a lot more factors, such as how efficient your blood can carry oxygen around. A value of 100% is usually only typical for young adults and kids, both in good health, and you might feel entirely fine and well with values around 90%, too. So always consult a doctor if in doubt and never panic or be too concerned about a single number.
