Health update (cross post)

Update on my health.
Thank you every one with your well wishes and all other support during this time.
Where I am at right now.
I am in full recovery and getting back to routine. Still on medication and getting strength back. I get winded quite easily and need to be mindful of my movements.
Those that are a bit more interested in some details here are a few things.
With some flu like symptoms it moved into a fever and chill with difficulty breathing. I was on oxygen for about a week and unable to walk more than a few steps before losing mybreath.
A side note. Be honest with how you feel and with any medical issues you have. I have type 2 diabetes and its uncontrolled. Turns out that some steroids that you can be given will mess up your blood sugar and need to be checking insulin multiple times a day.
In the end I was taken off oxygen after a few days and have been spending this time regaining strength. I lost a lot of muscle and fat during this time and now have to recover that muscle lost.
Art, I am returning to drawing and coloring. Its going to take me a while but I will be getting back to KO-fi art, commission and an art pack in time.
Thank you again for your support and there will be more to come.

Well, very glad to hear this. The "uncontrolled" part of the diabetes... that's scary.

Just focus on healing, please. I'm glad you're better, but you aren't a hundred percent, so keep getting back on your feet the first in que.

I also got COVID and also got Type 2 Diabetes during it. It turns out that amongst the weird things COVID can do to your body, is to suppress the insulin effect on it. I haven't gotten a new checkup to confirm officially, but my diabetes was *temporary*. I controlled my bloodsugar with a strict low carb diet for weeks and ended up producing insulin again. So keep your hopes up, it might be temporary for you too. It just might take a month or longer for your body to get back to normal, assuming you're taking care of it.
