Summary

Pelican 73436 had COVID-19 in September 2020 and developed long-haul symptoms in March 2021: palpitations (PVCs), hot flashes, head and ear pressure and fatigue. The palpitations worsened with poor sleep. A Pfizer vaccination in May 2021 eased the palpitations somewhat and they became less frequent, with no other change. Symptoms still flared worst in the week and a half before and during their period.

How ill they were on the ME/CFS severity scale, estimated from what they describe at each point, with time counted from when the illness began. Hover or tap a point. The chart starts 6 months after onset: the story doesn’t say how ill they were before that. 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.
