Stage 2

This next stage is where the early problems start to arise. Your breathing becomes more labored and difficult, many patients describe it as feeling like they are drowning. The supplemental flow of oxygen you require increases significantly and you are given bronchodilators, a medication that makes breathing easier by relaxing the muscles in the lungs and widening the airways.

Unfortunately, this is not enough and your mobility starts to diminish quickly. Simple things like going to the bathroom or even sitting up in bed become too difficult and the decision is made to move you to the intensive care unit.

  1. This article seems to tell it like it is. I am just recovered from covid and thank God, never went to hospital Went to a walk-in with bad cough, chest pain, weakness and hard to breathe. They started me on steroids and antibiotics, and did a covid test. Called next day, it was positive, need to call pc doctor. She agreed with the meds and continued them as well as sending me for 4 shots for antibodies. It was terrible to go thru but I had the two shot vaccine in March and feel that is why it never got any worse. You don’t want to chance this, do what ever you need to do to stay well.

    You just told me it didn’t go thru. sorry, I am done.

  2. If you happen to survive the treatment, at whatever point, what happens next? I assume there is more treatments of some sort is required.

  3. Crazy, that people are scared to take the medicine that could save their lives.
    Thanks for everything, Donald.
