"precautionary care "??.. #wtf 3/28/20 when I couldn& #39;t breathe...O2sats in 80s...there were no hospital beds here/ERs were full, they were respiratory ICUs /there were no meds & we were out of testing supplies in #nyc , as a Covid infected RN I took care of myself 18 days of hell
So I talked to my PCP every day & then she ordered me meds, which had to be delivered & there were no delivery people to my hood ,Nebulized on the fire escape,every 3 hrs, so I wouldnt infect my son..my lungs felt full of plastic string ,never been that sick ever/wrote my will
I am very very lucky... I didn& #39;t lay down for 18 days, my 02 sats would plummet if I laid down, I could only walk to kitchen & back ...Day 3 and I was laid off my job for not coming to work, yeah really...the place I got infected working in a garbage bag ... #CovidNurseTale
