Texsox 1,459 Posted Friday at 08:17 PM I'm worried about his long term recovery. While having an active case wasn't really a big deal for me, the three month cough, body ache, etc was horrible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was thinking we borrow Jose Ramirez instead so we can return him as an impatient hitting groundball machine. 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had it in December, body ache went away after a few days, however here we are 5 months later and I still can't really smell anything and sweet things taste like raw cigar tobacco, it's been a blast.

I was so relieved when the cough stopped. Once I stopped coughing I could sleep better and it really helped the pain. The most serious lingering issue for me is it probably caused, (or just a coincidence), right bundle branch blockage in my heart. I never really lost my sense of smell or taste. It was reduced for a while, but wasn't a big deal. I actually questioned the lab results. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry to hear that. My brother has something similar going on post-COVID. No fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Both got covid and died a few weeks after recovering from what appeared to be a massive heart attack. Weird thing is, neither had any evidence of heart issues before that. Both were in their mid 60s.

Cardiac issues are more common than you think with COVID. For D1 athletics you need a full cardiac workup and EKG before returning to running. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We are also monitoring my Leukemia a bit closer with tests every three months instead of annual. I'm just really lucky I caught COVID in 2022 after two vaccinations and a booster.

Sounds like you have more than just a few factors which could have made it a disaster. Hope all goes well! 🙏🙏🙏 Edited Sunday at 02:41 AM by ptatc 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BamaDoc 311 Posted Saturday at 02:36 PM Good luck Tex! I still remember Moncada looking like he was going to cry after scoring from first late in the season after having Covid early in the year and he is obviously in great shape compared to us old farts.

With that growing range of versatility in emotions expressed....wince/groan, stoic indifference, tears....his future career in telenovelas and MVs is virtually assured.
