Summary

After a second COVID-19 infection in August 2024, they had about six weeks of daily low-grade fevers, forgetfulness and easy exhaustion, on top of existing POTS and hEDS. The fever faded by around month four, and by June 2025 they had no persistent fever. A Novavax shot in November 2024 was followed days later by new heart palpitations that lasted about a month and now come and go.
