Hey everyone, there's a lot in the news about the stay-at-home orders in place and my state is isn't under one yet. Some of our counties are, but of course not mine yet. All of this has got me wondering if we're at a higher risk than the average person for the coronavirus? Does anyone know anything?
Thanks

NASH and the coronavirus - how are you coping? have you changed your treatment? let's share! https://www.carenity.us/forum/nonalcoholic-fatty-liver-disease-and-nash/living-with-nonalcoholic-steatohepatitis/nash-are-we-at-a-higher-risk-for-the-coronavirus-1721I have Nash, high blood pressure, and few other helath issues. If I were to get coronavirus could this be fatal
Hi everyone, I've felt MAJORLY in the dark this whole time. I couldn't get a straight answer from my doctor and I couldn't find ANYTHING clear online about NASH and whether we're at risk. I guess it just all goes back to the fact that NASH isn't well studied and doctors don't really know how to treat it beyond treating the conditions that cause it or come with it. Very frustrating. I've been staying safe at home and sending my family out for errands and grocery shopping just in case.
Have any of you had any clear info from your doctors? What are you all doing during the lockdown?
@idontdrink Hello idontdrink, thank you for your comment. I think many people living with NASH and other chronic conditions may be feeling the same way. This is a confusing time as there is simultaneously not enough information and too much going around.
Hello members, how are you holding up? Have you had any specific information about NASH from your doctor? What are you doing to protect yourself? Are you staying positive in lockdown or is it starting to get to you?

@sbrown45 @Candygal2020 @idontdrink @Haidee95 Hi everyone, I hope you're holding up ok! I was wondering now that the lockdown is starting to end (at least in my state it is) what are you all doing about it? Are you going back to work or are you going to stay in longer? I'm a little worried that things are being rushed and that we're kind of all running around like chickens with their heads cut off. What do you all think?
Going to enjoy it! I am going back to work. We should all follow the social distancing & face masks protocol.
