Summary

They caught COVID-19 in March 2020 and about a month later noticed lower energy that persisted almost two years. They briefly lost taste and smell, developed IBS and sensitivities to gluten and dairy, and had a covid toe. A FODMAP diet helped the IBS, but by March 2022 they were still getting by with reduced energy and said life was definitely different.

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 1 month 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.
