- kylehotchkiss 2y agoWere you able to completely recover? Any symptoms from it still? In the case I was helping care for, the infection ended up leaving a lot of unusual autoimmune conditions in its wake.
- BWStearns 2y agoFully recovered. Felt like shit for about a year after from losing so much weight, and being stuck in a room alone for 3 months probably didn’t help much. Wouldn’t be surprised if it broke something that shows up later but so far everything is fine 8 years on. Only chronic symptom so far is I got into functional programming while quarantined and it stuck, so maybe it’s a sign of mental illness.
- kylehotchkiss 2y agoHah! Good man. Appreciate the sense of humor. As I mentioned elsewhere in this thread, I've got a nonzero chance of getting it one day. I'm not afraid, just hoping I'd be able to contribute to eradicating it from the world in some way.
