Summary

Had COVID-19 over three years before writing; a doctor said symptoms were probably long COVID. Brain fog has never really gone away and worsened with each reinfection. By October 2023 they reported leg jerks felt down the spine, occasional numbness and leg pain, and worsening focus and scatterbrainedness. The numbness and leg pain had become less frequent, but the leg jerks continued; no treatment was described.

Their path

They say too little about how ill they were at each step to draw it on the severity scale, so the steps are listed as they describe them. Dates are when they posted.
