#duolingo streak is back
Okay ignore the fact that I accidentally said a serious covid case because what I meant to say was a serious covid reaction case. Just want to point that out because I know everyone is a skeptic and I just want to head that off.
Anyways, I’ve been so sick for a week from a Covid vaccine reaction where I didn’t even know what day it was or where I was. Day one after the moderna vaccine (lot 3001652) I started to get a fever that night. Vaccines are good, just sometimes one catches you but hey, better than covid because I don’t now have permanent lung damage to go along with everything.
Went to the hospital, possible covid pneumonia. Or just a different pneumonia. It was an atypical pneumonia which is usually associated with “walking” pneumonia or covid pneumonia. Four days of antibiotics in the emergency room in Leduc. Then got home, stayed home over night, had absolutely zero idea where or when I was. I was completely out of it. Still can’t place anything in order. Got dropped off at the Devon hospital because of the confusion. They held me there on antibiotics, then transfered to the Misericordia hospital, then back to Devon in the morning. They did an LP and CT. I still couldn’t figure out where I was. Got discharged, I think. Got home, tried to drink, tried to eat an pureed ice bar. Immediately threw up,.called an ambulance. They took me to the Misericordia, who basically did nothing even though I was so disoriented I couldn’t figure out when or where I was. Called my brother who took me to the u of a hospital because like obviously you shouldn’t discharge someone who has no idea where they are, can’t walk on their own, and all that. So I had my brother stay with me at the u of a hospital and explain that this is not normal for me and had my mom phone them to figure out a plan. Nice to have good support people to get pissed off when dictated. My mom understandable pretty ticked off when they tried to just discharge me at the mis. That’s when I was feeling kind of hopeless because I was getting worse and no one was taking me seriously at all. That’s a pretty shitty feeling.
Anyways, they admitted me and I’m finally starting to be a bit better.
But the one thing which hit me super hard
My 920 Duolingo streak. Was lost. I sort of depressedly started over and I contact Duolingo support because y'know it felt pretty rough.
No pushing, just ‘hey that super sucks and that is an incredible achievement and it was absolutely out of your control". Legit made my day! (That first message was yesterday when I was still pretty loopy)
