I had covid & have been suffering from fatigue, brain fog, breathlessness, tinnitus, rapid heart beat, gastrointestinal issues & chest tightness. To all those people who are suffering long covid we will recover, it’s a slow process but we will recover. Keep positive & safe :-)

I miss feeling “sober”
I wake up exhausted every day

Whoever invented this virus I pray that they get punished servilely as those who are suffering from the virus 🥺

Long-term brain fog is, hands down, the most scary Covid-19 symptom.

I have terrible shortness of breath and fatigue, . It has ruined my life. I cannot even take the garbage out without getting so out of breath I can hardly speak. I am a nurse and got Covid twice, was off work without pay and now am practically debilitated and still have to work bc they cannot diagnose it. (thank you Biden, nurses risking their health for the health of others while everyone else got to stay home safe and get paid!). It has made me bitter and depressed. I was a healthy active person before this. Now I feel like I am 90 years old.

Sadly I can totally relate to you all here..
Covid and Long covid is absolutely awful…!!!!
Those who created and made this virus knew exactly what they were doing.!
I too had covid in August It’s now been 3 months and on and off I still
get all sorts of side effects…
Rapid heartbeat, chest and arm pains, brain fog, dizziness, fatigue,
My taste buds and smell hasn’t quite returned to normal..
One minute I’m ok the next I feel like I’m having some sort of
panic attack…I’ve seen both a pulmonologist and Cardiologist
ran all sorts of tests, which thank God were ok…
sending prayers to you all from Crete Greece, God bless…

My Long COVID battle started last year in January with extreme fatigue, sleeping issues, breath shortness, joint pain, brain fog, inflammation, heart and blood circulation problems and a whole range of allergies which I never had before. Now, one year later, I slowly feel much better and back to life, except for ongoing inflammation in my body. My doctor misdiagnosed my brain fog for dementia and also prescribed psycho pills

I wish they had talked about the constant bad taste in the mouth, and the awful smell that persists. In addition to fatigue, I have these symptoms post covid. Sometimes the smell is so bad, it makes me nauseous and I struggle not to vomit. I also struggle with gastrointestinal problems too. All since I got covid.

Brain fog, fatigue, joint pain, inflammation, heart shocks and numbness are my long covid systoms.Ran 50k a week before covid, walk 2 mile and I sleep for 3 hours plus

We got a horrible strain and what we are dealing with is dizziness, faint feeling, nauseated, and anxiety from all that.
It's

[alejandraramirez]

does anyone have rapid heart rate after covid? i’ve been dealing with this for a month. went to see my doctor, did and EKG and was fine. i hear it’s normal but of course it’s scary.

I was really hoping for something more optimistic than "Maybe you are crippled for the rest of your life." I mean, it is always good to speak the truth but this is a fact we are all very much aware of, so any news and development about research and potential cures would be a much higher added value.

I like so many others are mentally exhausted having to endlessly be tired. Always planning 3 days away for anything. And if I do anything I know I am going to be useless for the next 3 days.

Had Covid in July. I’m noticing dizziness when I’m anxious or stressed in public situations

[jessicaalvarez]

I had Covid back in May and I still have really bad body aches especially my legs, I can’t hold a long conversation as I run out of breathe. I’ve been told by a fiend who is a doctor that my left lung is congested. A coworkers claims she has memory loss since she was I sick. It’s scary. Stay safe!

This year is 3 years with long Covid. I was never sick with Covid during that time. I did experience some mild cold symptoms early 2020, but nothing serious. Shortly after I began having heart palpitations, my thyroid was affected, & I had debilitating weakness & heavy limbs after a light work day & especially after workouts. I had to stop working out completely. I get brain fog, my joints ache randomly, I get weakness & pins & needles in my limbs among many other debilitating symptoms. I was recently diagnosed by a hematologist, who based upon my complaints, was able to figure out what no other dr could in the last 3 years smh. I’m young & want to get back to going to the gym. I’m tired of getting sick constantly ( fevers, cold symptoms ect) and having all of the other symptoms. This has severely, negatively impacted my quality of life. Will it ever go away?

I had covid two months ago and I still have symptoms of brain fog, chest tightness, fatigue, anxiety and mild depression

[elizabethdevries]

My symptoms are awful. I'm strong. I was a very tough athlete and I can't make it through a day. I am utterly exhausted and I have to vomit all the time...in waves...every single day. This is so miserable. It's been many months of this and I'm getting more and more depressed. I don't have hope I will be my normal self again.

It’s only been a little over two weeks since I’ve tested positive and I definitely feel better but I still feel the breathlessness, I have a random rapid heart beat, occasional intense migraines, and extreme fatigue and malaise. All I want to do is sleep. I’ve taken a nap every day for the last week up to 4-5 hours on some days and I wake up just as tired. I’m fighting it right now as I type this and caffeine or taking walks does nothing for me. The thing that is so frustrating is at the peak of my symptoms it hurt to breathe even laying down. My chest was aching and I was struggling to get air, yet when I went to the doctor she helped me none. I was in and out of the appointment in 15 minutes. They pretty much only took my vitals and gave me a Covid test. She prescribed me steroids and that’s it. At that time I had diarrhea, headaches so intense I couldn’t move my eyes, nausea, fever, fatigue, congestion, a hoarse voice, and I really couldn’t breathe. I went in to the appointment fully expecting to be given oxygen or something. The pulse oximeter showed 87. However I had fake nails on so she couldn’t tell if it was a accurate reading. She told me my lungs “sounded perfect”.🙄 Weird though because she didn’t listen to my lungs from my back and only my chest for a few seconds. I honestly think they just wanted to go home. I was miserable the last two weeks recovering at home and I ended up hacking up all kinds of mucus so I don’t know how my lungs sounded perfect. Anyone else feel like everyone only cares about Covid right now and not actual care.😕
