004 - Dr. Richard Angel
Welcome to our first non-beta episode of the Glorious Professionals Podcast! It is particularly fitting that Jason’s first guest is Dr. Richard Angel. Dr Angel is a Special Forces Medic (18D), 7th SFG (A) turned ER Doctor and is just coming out of his battle with COVID-19. For a primer on their conversation see his blog post here.
Jason and Dr. Angel talk more in depth about his symptoms and recovery. Dr. Angel offers his advice - as one who has survived - on how you can prepare your body to fight the infection (stay hydrated!); some home care regimens and helpful items to have on hand; and warning signs that you - or a loved one - need to see a doctor or head to the ER. This convo obviously is not a substitute for talking to a doctor or medical professional about your specific circumstances. It is rather a general conversation to inform listeners about what they might expect and how Dr. Angel was able to help himself stay out of the already burdened ER.
Take this seriously folks - if not for you, then for everyone else and the heroes in the medical professions on the front lines in hospitals across the country.
