Summary
After a first suspected COVID infection, they developed symptoms and later became the sickest they had ever been for weeks following a second infection. By April 2023 they could not get through grocery shopping without feeling it for days, and a mentally demanding programming work day could leave them sleeping through the weekend. They said they had not gotten much better and described using pacing and online grocery pickup to avoid crashes.

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.
