Oh goodness, I've known so many people this year that have had such dangerous cases of RSV. Just a note when you do get the feeling a little better they do have a vaccine for that now. Since you just spent such a long time in the hospital I think that you would qualify for getting the vaccine. I know that once I start feeling better myself I need to get my pneumonia vaccine I plan to get it earlier in the year I get a waiver so that I can get it even though I don't meet the age requirement. but unfortunately right when I was supposed to get it I got sick with wouldn't you know it pneumonia, 😆. Now that I'm feeling a little better I need to go back to the pharmacist and reschedule the appointment I wouldn't be as funny about it except for I've been hospitalized with pneumonia twice and almost died both times in my childhood so I seem to have a issue with that particular illness. I'm very glad that you're finally out of the hospital though don't worry about the weight honestly your health is much more important than any weight up or down will ever be. I was sick earlier about a month and a half ago they couldn't figure out what it was when they tested but I suspect it was RSV and I just waited too long until the test didn't come back conclusive when they tested me for rsv, flu, covid, and strep throat. But luckily they prescribe me antibiotic steroids and an inhaler which allowed me to get better. I really expected I'd get better on my own but I guess where I take all these immune suppressants it just wasn't happening about 3 weeks into the illness I finally had to break down and go to the doctor cuz I was losing too much weight wasn't able to breathe and was having more and more problems hearing. But within a few hours of taking the medications I was already much more relieved and able to breathe much more clearly. Get some rest and try your best to get to feeling better as soon as possible.
