Summary

A woman who tested positive for COVID in July 2020 developed long COVID with breathlessness and a pulse of 160 climbing stairs, plus depression and stress eating. Losing weight from 212 lb to 173 lb brought no improvement. She was vaccinated in September and October 2021 hoping it would ease her symptoms, but says she then had many more severe symptoms. By June 2022 she still felt her life had been stolen.
