I often wonder if civid tipped it out of wack or if I had this already so that’s why I did so poorly with COVID

Summary
Cedar 49222 had COVID and did poorly with it, and wonders whether the virus disturbed their parathyroid or whether the problem was already there beforehand, as vitamin D levels would not stay in the normal range. After parathyroid surgery they report being functionally much better and now able to hold vitamin D levels in range. They also have mild asthma now, which they did not have before.

Their path
How ill they were on the ME/CFS severity scale, estimated from what they describe at each point, in the order they describe; they don’t give enough times to place each step. Hover or tap a point. 1 step says too little to place on the scale and is only in the table. Dates are when they posted. What the levels mean.
