Summary

Stream 14205 caught COVID-19 and felt short of breath without a high fever or cough, and did not feel better for months. By the summer they could jog only half a mile before cramped muscles lasted a week. A daily inhaler may have helped, and they were trying dietary changes; their condition at the time of writing was not clearly described.
