some may know i went to Maxillo at my local hospital quite a while back and they did a mouth swab which tests for a variety of things and it came back positive for a super growth. the treatment when started was horrendous but i did last the course.

what i have just found out is that at the same time it also was able to test for covid but yet i didn't know this was possible.

i did see a news article where they were looking at mouth swabbing as an easier way of checking so was i used as a Guinea pig for the testing?

thankfully today i found out the result for covid was clear but my system is upset by the treatment i was on for the super growth and on top of that a antibiotic was started so it was like clash of the big titans going on. my breathing was going a bit haywire and apparently turns out the clash was the issue so having a not so good weekend. i do have both asthma and lung fibrosis yuk.

hopefully as the days go on the effects will get less and my system will improve back to better health.
 
this shows Martin the risks of finishing one course of treatment and going straight on to another then ending up with some nasty problems.

at least the covid came back clear thank god.
 
Glad your Covid check came back clear @mikeydt1 - though a bit surprising that they weren’t very clear that it was happening!

Hope things begin to settle over the next few days
 
they did send me a letter Mike but it was all in their jargon and to be honest i just had a quick glance as i was too occupied with other stuff. it was interesting that the surgeon said he didn't think there was anything to find must of been red faced when something came back positive.

when i saw him last week he seemed a bit less quite i wonder why 🙄
