Summary
Coast 65284 got COVID-19 in fall 2020 and took months to recover. Since then, ordinary colds have brought back symptoms: smell reverting to cigarette smoke or burnt toast, plus flares of GI problems, anxiety and dizziness. In July 2021, while getting over a cold, they said they were almost better after about 10 days, with a phlegmy cough and sensitive GI remaining and occasional spinning head. They expected to return to baseline in a few days.
