Sugar boy

You smoke too much niggarrr and too much alcohol

Alcohol contains the greatest amount of sugar
More than our so called coke, pepsie, fanta and Sprite
I know you won't understand

Keep yourself hydrated



They don't know my dear
Humans hate what they don't understand
Although am addicted to alcohol
But i know this very well

That is covid-19 for really.....this is the time you need to cry like a baby to your maker (GOD) for healings, then (1) grind Ginger and Lemmon, mix with warm water and start drinking it morning and night, (2) along with vitamin C (3) Zithromax antibiotics to clear the infection from your respiratory tract to enable you get back your lost of test and smell.......this I did when it happened to me today I am very okay but I must tell you its not an easy experience, am sure by now you must have lost appetite for eating and you will be stooling

I've done so you might want to check through on the thread.

Shiiit wasn't funny oh. Literally saw my life flash right before me.

Na so I dey beg doctors to just give me injection even if na the one wey go just make me sleep and not wake up. I was in severe pains. Could neither seat up on the bed nor lay still.

People who follow me on here would have noticed my absence or lack of activity in the last month. I was battling to stay alive and I won the battle.
I have, thanks.

It was your dedicated eating of fresh pussy that cured the Corona virus, and NOT the malaria medication you took.

To boost your immunity and that of your woman, it is imperative that you must feast on pussy AT LEAST five times per week without fail.

Thank you and God bless Nigeria.

Some here talk away as if those suspecting the OP might have coronavirus have committed any offence.
I think why people are concerned is because we are in the middle of a pandemic which bears similarity with OPs complaints. When one comes down with ailment with symptoms akin to those of coronavirus, wisdom dictates that one should take advantage of the free intervention in place to run a test to rule out Covid-19 in order not to endanger innocent ones.
Those who do not believe in the reality of the novel virus are unwisely putting others in harm's way and that is most unfair. And to be in the habit of airing this in the public is most unwise. Such carefree and baseless bravado has accounted to why this contagion is still spreading wildly all around the world.
Someone said that the spread has abated; I think such an individual is living in a different planet. If anything, what has abated is the initial fear because not much was known about it at the first. But now there is an increased and improved understanding of the contagion unlike as at first when it emerged on the world stage. That does not, however, minimize it's lethality. Those who have experienced a severe case of the novel coronavirus know that malaria is no match for it. Those that have succumbed to it are not necessarily weak people. At it's advanced stage, the use of ventilator is merely to postpone the evil day - 400,000+ are already gone, it is unfair to the bereaved for anyone to try to trivialize the novel coronavirus to which they had already lost their loved ones. Enough is enough please!

I thank God for your life.

The shiit almost killed me during this lockdown.

I kept feeling empty from the inside, would eat, and still feel as if I am starving. Lost all sense of smell and taste. Whatever the smell and taste of water I got would make me go nauseous. Stooling seized for over 10 days. Was killing myself with all sorts of fruits to ease my stooling.

I frigging almost died by the time my wife got me to the Hospital.

The first hospital had rejected me due to my labored breathing for fear of COVID 19.

When the last hospital finally accepted to take me in after what seemed like an eternity of monitoring me outside their premises for any signs of COVID and ran a test on me, my blood sugar level was tipping already at 51.5 when a normal level should be in the 4-7 region.

The doctors were shocked and concluded that 30 minutes later than I had come in and I'd have gone into a coma and possibly death.

I did almost three weeks in the hospital and still recovering.

A very very silent killer.

Stay away from sugar and sodas guys.

Diabetes is real.

Now I have become an advocate for this cause too.

I wished I had spoken out while I was going through the same symptoms and gotten swift advice like you just did.

A health informative thread as this should be making the FP particularly at this time of a pandemic and the lockdown.

I had similar symptoms like yours but mine was typhoid... I would have to eat almost every 1 to 2 hours... I almost open a thread for fear of Covid19 but I'm healthy and back to normal now. However, fruits must always be by me...

These are symptoms of covid-19. These pose no threat as you're asymptomatic. Just take surplus vitamin c, fruits and ginger tea. If your health deteriorate further, please contact the NCDC but right now, you've got nothing to panic about.
You don't know anything!

Someone complained of not being able to taste or smell and you said the person is asymptomatic!

Are you for real?

What are symptoms

If truly the 1 full spoon of salt you put inside your mouth this morning was tasteless, then please go to a teaching hospital and see a doctor.

Last month I had a similar experience I lost my sense to smell and my mouth became bitter

It was so bad that I bought a room freshener I spray it in my room yet could not perceive anything

I had to return it to where bought it and told them is fake .

Until after two days I started feeling somehow and I was advised to treat malaria and typhoid.


So it could be malaria and typhoid

Doctor or nurse

Lol... See how Op quickly embraced high sugar level over covid. grin

Everyone has experienced this loss of Smell and taste this period and recovered from it. So i wonder why you're scared. Mind you, high sugar level is more deadly. * what am I even saying**? Let me come and be going.

Take Dr Meyer Vitamin B Complex, Dr Meyer Folic acid + Vitamin B 12, take them morning afternoon and night 1 tablet each before reverting to once a day after 2 weeks, eat lots of vegetables, take Citrus fruits.... You will be back to normal in 3 weeks, it's happening to lots of people these times, and I think it's Corona Virus symptoms. I'll advise u take Orheptal too to boost your immune system to fight it off.

Stay Safe Man.
