Summary
A person fell ill with COVID-19 in late October 2020 and within days had brain fog, joint and muscle pain, breathlessness and a racing heart. Around day eight they were manic and suicidal; their brother called the police and they were given medication. From day 15 they were careful with their energy, meditated and respected their limits, and their brain fog became more bearable; they expected a hard, long recovery.
