Summary
Glacier 84240, in the UK, had suspected COVID in February 2021 and was floored with fatigue for three days, then tired easily with a burning sensation in the left lung and heart area that stopped them from running. Scans and ECGs found nothing and they were diagnosed with long COVID. The burning flared after exercise and eased slowly; by July 2022 it had cleared completely, though colds now feel worse.
