[ The after effects of COVID 19 to me, a diabetic aged 85 years. Part 2.]

Both of us were OK but I was very weak and wondering how long it would take for both of us to go out for a dinner.
I lost my urge to eat out even after lockdown was lifted

My wife was happy, happily doing her work and I was happy I had come back after 17 days at the hospital with all the medicines, injections and tests going on round the clock. I closed the room door to our room while at the hospital after 11:00 PM but it would be opened some time's to check if we are OK by the nursing staff. Now being at home if I closed the bedroom door my wife will not open and I will get a good sleep.
Now I get good sleep

After few days I had to open the fridge door and tried to look at the imported Beer bottles that I had purchased at Brigade Sherton Grand Hotel, I could not find it anywhere in the fridge. I asked my wife where were the beer bottles kept. She told me the cleaning people who came from the hospital were told by me to throw all that was in the fridge. So no Beer or any drink after I came home from the hospital.There was Lock Down on all Liquor shops.
I lost my bad habit.

While at the hospital I never called my friends but they all kept ringing and stopped calling me after some days.
After I came home no one called me.
 
Anuloma Choorna was a Ayurveda Powder I used to take for my bowl movement. I did not take the bottle to the hospital so I did not take it as I could move my bowl antime at the hospital.
This habit of taking a Ayurveda powder was not required as my bowl movement was fine when I came home from the hospital.
 
My son had arranged a hospital Doctor to come home daily twice morning and evening to check on our health and it was reported to my son by the doctor directly but I used to note it down in my dairy.
That habit has made me note down my BP and Oximeter readings daily after the doctor was stopped since our basic health parameters were constantly in limits.
My eating increased post Covid-19,breakfast, lunch and dinner consisted more of rice and less of healthy diat

I had lost nearly 4 kg weight. May be the body needs to regain my weight was my immagination was wrong so I changed.

I took time to take any decision on all matters.
I did not resume me daily exercises for over 2 months.

Social get to together was impossible.
