[QUOTE="Admin., post: 193212, member: 1129"] My smart af cousin has been "long hauling" for months now, here is her update she posted this morning.... Covid-19 Update: I hope all y'all had a Merry Christmas/Happy Hanukah/Joyous Festivus. Christmas was super quiet at my house ... just me and Mom. Just as well ... I didn't have the energy to put up any Christmas decorations or cook a big meal. I used the dining table to wrap Christmas presents, and left the wrap and ribbons there to remind me it was Christmas. Lame, I know ... I got my Covid-positive response on March 26. It has been 9 months now. I am still: * Sleeping 10-14 hrs a day * Running a fever of 99.2-99.6 every evening * Experiencing crippling fatigue * Having disturbingly frequent episodes of brain fog, rendering me incapable of concentrating, problem solving, multi-tasking or even talking in complete sentences sometimes because I can't get the words I"m looking for * Phantom Smells (usually burnt toast or burnt hair) * Headaches * Loss of balance and inability to hop from foot to foot * Strange dreams and night sweats (anyone who knows me knows I don't sweat ... ever. I just get hot. Might be my Norwegian heritage ... my Dad didn't sweat either) * Racing heart, which brings on an "Anxiety Cascade", which initiates nearly all the symptoms above. * Loss of appetite * Digestive issues (upper and lower ... I'm so over it!!) * Hair loss * Weight gain (most likely from inactivity) In some positive news, there are some new protocols and therapeutics coming soon for Covid-19 Long-Haulers like me. It's estimated that 10% of the population that tests positive for Coronavirus become Long-Haulers. Keep in mind, Covid-19 wasn't a big thing until February and March, so it wasn't until summer (June/July) that Long-Haul was identified and being reported and addressed. Not only is the medical community playing catch-up with this, the insurance companies that provide Long-Term Disability are too. My claim was initially denied because "Patient will likely be over it by the time the 90-day waiting period is fulfilled." I have been off work on FMLA since Thanksgiving, and will continue to be off for a while yet. The brain fog and fatigue are the deciding factors. If I can't think straight, I can't be of any help to the clients or my team. I have a couple of hours a day of clarity and something akin to energy.
