Project Setback

Been feeling very fatigued, weak, brain fog for the past 3 weeks. To the point that I can barely get out of bed for most of the day.
I have been improving the past 3 days so it's feeling like I may be on the mend but progress is SLOW.
No idea what this is. Doctors have done blood tests, Brain MRI, x-rays, etc. All normal.
I suspect something like Long Covid or some other Post Viral Syndrome.

Hope you get well soon like watching your videos but it important to get well

You just described classic Covid symptoms. That was the exactly way I felt when I got it the first time. There is a good vitamin regimen that my wife put me on (She is an RN), and that was a big help getting the energy levels back. It's not an over night thing, but it did help a lot. Honestly the best thing is to rest and let your body heal. If you would like that list of vitamins, either reply to this or message me. Please take care, worry about your well being, and the projects will be there when you get to feeling better.

Glad to hear you’re doing a bit better

Hope your recovery speeds up try the antiviral pills they now have for covid helped me. Enjoy your build been a great help on my build.

[@nathanprobst2164]

Thank you for sharing your struggles. Like others have said, your health is vastly more important than our enjoyment of your build videos. You are an inspiration and we all care about YOU first.

Eat all the superfoods (gross stuff). Raw garlic, onion, kale, bananas, honey, etc.

[@thomashall41]

I've had Covid twice and your symptoms sound exactly like what I went through. The fatigue, muscle soreness, and especially brain fog were intense. Praying for a quick recovery. Take care of yourself first and looking forward to more videos.

[@bryanb5413]

Continue improving and we'll be here when you are 100%.

[@rogerkober9836]

Wishing you continued improvement. Take care of yourself. You were already in my prayers due to the time between videos and you will remain in my prayers. I and many others will be here when you are able to resume normal production. The fact that you were compelled to inform viewers speaks to your character. Take care brother, God Bless.

I had almost exact same symptoms 1/2 way thru my kitfox build. I quit working on it for a long time. Did all the testing with doctors and they say nothing is wrong. Doctor said it’s just anxiety 🤦🏼‍♂️. I’m much better now but definitely not 💯 normal. I function normal now but deal with it daily. And the kitfox is now finished! (Waiting on my S21 kit)

[@funflyrfl]

Did you get checked by a Cardiologist ?? Sounds like problems associated with A-fib !

[@Outbound300]

I had chest X-rays and Echocardiograms done. Heart is normal.

[@Hacksaw2055]

Get well soon sir…..

[@jhagz77]

I'm curious if you had the covid vaccine, and if so is there any correlation?

[@Outbound300]

That’s a valid curiosity. I never vaccinated or boosted.

[@simdpk]

Wow, that sucks. 🤞 for continued improvement. I had something flu-like that kicked my ass a few weeks ago, but only lasted a week.

[@JohnChvatalGSTV]

The symptoms you listed reminded me of Epstein Barr before you had mentioned it in the video. I've dealt with it before and symptoms match pretty closely.

[@klw141]

Thanks for the update, I know we all are hoping for a quick recovery. Take care of your self, KZbin videos are not a priority!

[@pcampbell55]

I hope you continue to improve! I had type A flu recently and the main effects were done in 3-4 days but I was weak and tired for days afterward. Odd stuff floating around out there.

[@jeff27X]

Hey DJ. I'm sorry to hear you're dealing with this. Feel better soon!

[@scottleduc1641]

Lyme?

[@Outbound300]

Tested negative for Lyme and Valley Fever.

[@ChrisNoye]

Just wanted to reach out and share some love from Australia. Your build in general and the logical process in which you approach things is inspirational. Best S21 I've seen to date. I wish you a speedy recovery, hopefully not long Covid or long anything! Take care of yourself first and foremost, and I look forward to seeing more of your beautiful S21 take shape when you are back on your feet!

[@Outbound300]

Wow, thank you! I’m feeling better a little each day. I may be able to get back in the hangar next month and get back to it.

[@markzimmermann3441]

This isn’t anything that a trip to Oshkosh won’t cure.

[@DelmarvaInt]

Hope you start feeling better soon my friend :)

[@Firehawkshadow]

Take your time to get better that's more important

[@tahoeguyz71]

Praying for a speedy recovery!!

[@Matanzabe]

And what about mononucleosis ? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infectious_mononucleosis . You describe exactly how I felt when I had mononucleosis. I had no swollen lymph nodes, as you often see or read about. Heads up, don't give up and keep fighting.

[@Outbound300]

Yes, Mono is another one. Also Lyme Disease. Whatever it is kicked my ass.
