I'm recovering with Covid this week and still can't eat or drink much. Oddly, this has been a blessing since I have completely stopped the alcohol and have managed to drop a few pounds. If the Covid doesn't kill me, it may help me take "the cure". As an added bonus, I'm grateful not to have to recycle those bottles.
BTW, I was vaxxed and double boosted but still managed to get Covid while traveling. Day One was scratchy throat, Day Two was sniffling, sneezing, coughing and body aches. Day Three was gastric cramps and diarrhea. Today is only mild cough and headache, so I think I'm well on the mend.

Not sure I will be able to keep off the sauce after Covid, though. Good luck irisblue and keep updating with your sobriety progress.
