I had uncontrollable chills, shortness of breath, headaches, muscle aches, major fatigue, inability to stay awake, and some nausea. My wife that week was worried I won&#8217;t wake up the next morning. This is coming from me who never gets sick and when I do its a cough which has been diagnosed as a problem with my sinuses. At points I felt like I was dying. The chills where horrible. I remember I was at a client thinking its really cold in this room and starting to shake. I left early that day and between leaving that client, getting in my car, driving, and getting in my house I couldn\u2019t control it.

We didn\u2019t know it at the time but this was later confirmed by an anti-body test and I matched all the symptoms. I had COVID.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over time I got better but it sadly took months. Over that time I lost 20-30 pounds. I never felt good after work. I still to this day have issues with fatigue and inability to stay awake. Also who knows what else has happened to me because of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>COVID is real and its so sad to me that people are discounting it as nothing. It is something. It almost took my life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211;UPDATE&#8211;<br>The vaccine is open and free. It has been shown to save lives. Just get it!!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many don&#8217;t know this but back in February of 2020 I was on my death bed.
