Social isolation, new symptoms and other things

What’s happening out there is still very surreal to me.

I feel like I’ve fallen asleep in one world and woke up in another, suddenly Disney has no magic, Paris is no longer romantic and keeping your distance is caring.

But it only gets interesting when you have relatives who are infected.
The niece got it. He has a fever, a sore throat, and a certain tightness in his chest when he coughs. Doctor called – ask her to come by. She has all the symptoms, but because she had no evidence of contact with infected persons, there was no smear test, report to the health department? I don’t know. What are we gonna do?

She’ll be restrained and put on sick leave for three days. No further information, no checks, no instructions. We google our way through and find a study on the net that reports positive for silica and Vitamin B3 in connection with Corona. Brochipet juice and silica still ordered in the pharmacy. The niece child reports meanwhile of an improvement. It remains exciting.

Apparently I have caught another symptom. I like to compare MSA and her symptoms with an All you can eat buffet for 6,50 € at Pagode. In the course of time you always try something new from their rich offer. I must have struck again, I have lost the sweating.

Monday I was out and wanted to buy something. DM, EDEKA and hardware store was on the program. People already let you know that they are not feeling well. In addition, there are missing car mechanisms regarding the shopping behavior. For example, if someone is standing in the aisle, but you have to get in, do you wait and block another aisle?  If you also go into the aisle, how many minutes do you start a consultation if you have the feeling that they have never been shopping themselves? Sorry.

You always have the feeling that someone is in your way and at the same time you are in your own way.

One hour queuing in front of the hardware store in the sun. great, enjoy the sun, I’m on the phone, it could be worse, I think so! When I was inside I went to the fabrics. Protection- counter protection, new queue and slowly I notice that long standing is not without a trace and it is actually much too warm. If I would have left the store sweaty, there would not be a single wet stain on my shirt. Only my head is threatening to burst…so not from pain but the heat wants to get out of it. About the announcement that you should keep your distance and do your shopping quickly, I could only smile tiredly. I dragged myself to the cash desk, paid and asked if I could sit down on the bench for a while. Iced tea put on and Ixe.
Halfway stable I went to the car and drove home. Legs up and put on a liter of water! This experience does not make me happy about the rising temperatures for the weekend.

Yesterday also the test phase of the Kamptocormier backpack ended. What can I say – I think I want to have this thing. Together with exercises for straightening up, correctly adjusted rollators and (according to Corona) with manual therapy, I am already going through life a little more upright again. The medical supply store Perick is very nice and does the bureaucracy for me. I wish I had met him earlier and got the estimate at the cash desk. So the rucksack!

The thing with the social isolation I bear sometimes more and sometimes less well. Sometimes I am quite motivated to do a lot of things, but usually this window of time disappears very quickly. What do you do to distract yourself?

I catch myself watching the podcast and video updates of Amboss on YouTube. Only to ask myself afterwards: “Why are you doing this to yourself, you won’t be needing it after all”. Then I stream FotoTv and ask myself …
New date is now the 3rd of May, actually the final spurt of the BuLi and additionally I would slowly prepare myself for Helgoland.
And now? Probably I will need a new armchair afterwards!

Take care of yourself
