Hello folks I ain't posted on here for a while because I'm recovering from a stroke. Oh and I had covid-19. It all started on the 23rd of March i had come into contct with someone who later showed signs of the virus. So I decided to self isolate I felt fine until a few days in when I started to feel sick flu like symptoms without a cough which I never had through out . Then I couldn't get out of bed for 3 days then into the 2and week I started to feel better, I just developed the cant smell.or taste business. On April 2and I got out of bed and went to brush my teeth the toothbrush fell out of hand , mmmm strange I thought so I tried the other hand same thing both hands no feeling that is when I thought I'd call the ambulance which was no mean feat without the use of my hands. Ambulance came and I was rushed to Charing Cross Stroke unit and diagnosed with a small bleed on the left hand side of my brain. I explained that I been self isolating so they tested my for covid 19 on the Thursday on the Saturday I was diagnosed with covid19. Taken down and put in the coranvirus section in a side ward on my own 5 days later I was let home . They said my stroke was caused by high blood pressure! Anyway I'm getting slot better use of both hands, no speech impediment but get fatigue really easy. I'm 55 didn't expect this but you just have to get on with it . The hardest part is not seeing my family because I could do with a hug. Anyway that's all folks sorry for any spelling mistakes or bad grammar but to text this much is a victory considering I couldn't pick a phone up a couple of months ago. U rssssss!

Good to see you! You've been through it alright.
Given your absence and loss of taste, what's your current cheese? |  | | |

Glad you are getting better fella. Welcome back. The fatigue is from the Covid19. Get plenty of rest. Drink a lot of water. On the plus side we haven't conceded a goal since you were taken unwell. On the minus side we haven't scored any either which is a bit of a worry. Main thing is get a lot of rest and keep hydrated. |  |

Well, I hope you get the feeling from this merry band of LFW brothers that we're glad you appear to be recovering from what must have been a frightening experience for you and your close ones. Get well soon!
I don't expect you were expecting things to go the way they have, when you wrote your OP on Covid? On a lighter note, I was looking at it the other day when I was also struggling with the Private Eye crossword, when your post provided me with answer to a clue: 'we're all doomed' Stay safe and get better soon. |  | | |

There's plenty of us on here if you're stuck. I'm sure we'd get something sorted.

Great to hear you're recovering fella and wish you a full and speedy recovery.
I just hope the usual suspects don't jump on this thread of yours and heavily politicise it!
It's frightening how quick or how slow this barsteward thing goes and it's far from pleasant on it's on. Chuck in a stroke and blimey you've done well to get here mate.
Take it easy, small steps and get there.
U R's! |  |

Good to have you back Connell - beating Covid 19 and a stroke at the same time?
