Summary
A Reddit user who developed long COVID around mid-2020, with brain fog, a raised heart rate on standing, resting and walking, and ear crackling. By January 2021, seven months in, symptoms had improved and they could walk comfortably for 30 minutes and do everything they used to, though slight brain fog and a high heart rate remained. By April 2021, ten months in, their brain fog had begun improving that month.

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 7 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.
