Summary

Three months after catching COVID they reported extreme tiredness, an intermittent tiny twitching and muscle weakness, which their doctor could not explain. They noticed the twitching had also begun after statins and a blood thinner, and wondered whether long COVID was the cause, since the symptoms remained a month after stopping the statin.
