Despite the number of lives that have been lost during the global COVID-19 pandemic, it is worthy of note that the high recovery rate, through the help of frontline workers, has been encouraging in the intense fight against the virus.

One of Nigeria’s COVID-19 survivors, author and marketing expert, Ife Durosinmi Etti, has narrated her experience at the hands of coronavirus and how she fought for her life, coming out victorious.

In a post she shared on her Instagram page, Ife recounted how she started feeling sick and went to the hospital on June 1st where she diagnosed of a bacterial infection after a test.

She was later placed on admission as her body was not responding to the drugs.

Etti stated that one of the doctors later suggested that she gets tested for COVID-19.

The COVID-19 test result came back positive and according to her, the experience afterwards was ‘horrific’.

After receiving treatment for about a month, she tested negative on June 27 after a second test.

Read her story below;

“June tested my existence. From the first day to the end! Everyday was a horror movie. On the first of June, I woke up in so much pain! It started with headaches first, then body pains. I went into the hospital and I was diagnosed of a bacterial infection.“

“I was not surprised with the result because someone who was also with me had also tested for bacterial infection in a totally different hospital. So I just took the medication I was given and went home.”

“Later that evening, my head was pounding like a machine. My body felt like someone was using a hammer to hit it all over. My temperature was extremely high, the pain all over was unbearable! I went back into the hospital at midnight and got admitted.“

“They gave me more pain medications through IV. None of the medications worked still. I was restless, in pain, I begged for sleeping pills so I could forget the pain. Obviously, they did not give me. I was wide awake all night.“

“The next day, I was discharged with a new set of medications. All they gave me did not work. I decided to mask my pain. I went back on Friday and Saturday to complain that I was not getting better. At this point, I could not really talk again.“
