AZ: Dr. Hoeltz, you are a physician. How and where do you think you have infected with the Coronavirus attached?

DR. STEPHAN HOELTZ: I was in the middle of March with friends in St. Anton in Tirol skiing. Since we heard about it already, that Ischgl is made due to Corona density. Two days later, we were off. We were on Friday, it was the 13th. March, with the Last one that came out of the valley, before it was sealed off.

you Have done Après-Ski, with presumably many in Tirol gets there?

no, not at all. We returned to the hut, and went out to dinner, quite normal. Of course, we rode the gondola, there’s a few more people were in it.

How did it go?

Because I was in a risk area, and also because I have responsibility to my employees, I wanted to let me in on the weekend in Munich to test the same. But that was not possible. The “Drive-through”Tests, people reserved, which had a Code from the health Department were the to was, of course. Then I went on Monday to a friend who is a ENT doctor who took the smear. The result I got on Thursday was negative. I had to scratch mild symptoms, runny nose and sore Throat.

Daniel von Loeper, Dr. Stephan Hoeltz had himself instructed in the Klinikum Großhadern in. Corona-Patient Hoeltz: “Thought it was a bacterial pneumonia,”

Are you gone again in your practice to Work, the Test was negative?

Yes, for two days, Monday and Tuesday, 23. 24. March. I thought, I have nothing. Tuesday night I felt worse, I was very tired and listless. Downhill was Wednesday, because I got fever and chills. The main symptom was a headache. On Friday, I’m back to the ENT doctor, who also made an x-ray of the lungs, to detect the beginning of the end of the pneumonia was.

I took two different antibiotics because I thought it was a bacterial pneumonia and not a Virus. A colleague of mine brought me oxygen from the practice home and a fever thermometer. Unfortunately, I had none at home. My temperature went up to 39.5 degrees up. To the hospital I didn’t want to but still, from fear of germs. In a germ-my uncle passed away 40 years ago.

at some point it was no longer but in a different way, or?

Yes, exactly. On Sunday, I grabbed my suitcase and pointed me in Großhadern itself, because neither oxygen nor medication helped. I thought it might be Corona – despite the negative Tests.

Corona-Patient Hoeltz: Two and a half days p> missing in the reminder

I knew that artificial respiration is present. In the hospital, the oxygen deterioration of the values more and more. To 20 PM, the Doctors said, there is nothing you intubate you must helps, a tube in the trachea to insert.

The anesthesiologist should come, but they came only two hours later because they had to provide a different case. This time was the worst. Waiting on you to put you into an artificial coma, and, you, if it goes dumb, to never again Wake up. The following two and a half days I am missing. Nothing. No Memory Of. I woke up on Wednesday and felt that I still had the tube in my throat. I was breathing spontaneously. The Doctors reassured me and said that my values were super.

How it went for you otherwise?

The main problem was the intestine, the swollen was and hurt. I was given a laxative, which was complicated in consequence of something, because I was a little Stripping. As to the ten so-called Perfusoren that everything is Possible in a purely pumps were safe.

How you have taken care of in the ICU?

Beside me, a man who had it worse, and got, rightly, more attention was. They came to me every two, three hours, because the protective clothing was scarce. The staff was already stressed out. I was lucky that I was one of the early cases. Unfortunately, it is to be feared that the staff which is infectious. Professional risk.

Corona-Patient Hoeltz: “I’ll take a gear out”

As would be expected of your Covid-19-disease, if they had not been on a respirator?

Fatal. I owe my life to our high-tech medicine to.

In retrospect: Have you done everything right?

no, I underestimated the whole thing completely. I should never have to go skiing. But I had no pre-existing conditions, was one of 57 non-risk group.

How are you doing now?

I never would have thought that it goes with the convalescence so quickly. I am in a domestic quarantine and bored. My sense of taste has suffered, everything tastes like cardboard. A marathon I don’t want to do.

you Will change your life?

I see it as a gift, survived to have. I’ll take a gear out, travel less, try to enjoy small things. I want to be there for my children and for my 90-year-old father.
