In their words
- Condition: Long COVID
the unpredictability of the long covid symptoms
In context ↗ - Began after: COVID
It feels like my body is 10 times more sensitive to everything (including mundane things) than it was prior to covid.
Summary
After COVID they described a body far more sensitive than before, with unpredictable days of chills, feverishness, extra fatigue, insomnia and breathlessness, and said they could do much less than before. The unpredictability fed their anxiety. Salt tablets, vitamin D, an iron supplement and compression socks eased their dysautonomia so they felt less dizzy.
