Summary
A 57-year-old woman said in October 2024 that her symptoms were ongoing but she hadn't had them for about a week. By April 2025 she said she had got better but was still battling, had just come out of a deep depression and was not convinced she was out of it yet; she described long COVID brain problems as horrible. She noted immeasurable hours spent writing, meditating, staying away from people and being quiet, and said lingering issues in her hands, feet, knees, elbows and neck remained.
