Summary
They caught COVID at the end of November/beginning of December 2020 and were hit hard, with breathlessness, chest pain, loss of smell and exhaustion that made simple tasks difficult. After two weeks they improved but remained constantly exhausted and short of breath; a cold a week before the post flared their symptoms again. They had lost weight and reported low heart rate and oxygen when lying down, while a doctor found their EKG and lungs normal.
