Long COVD ruined the quality of my life.
-
This just popped up on my feed. It explains everything in layman terms so well. I contracted Covid end of November 2021, after one week I was hospitalized, then admitted to the hospital's ICU and discharged 18th December 2021. Luckily I survived but my Long Covid symptoms are breaking me physically and mentally. One day I hope this nightmare will disappear from my life.

thank-you for presenting Long Covid symptoms so clearly…. even after two years, people are still (painfully) unaware and/or dismissive of this affliction…. I’m sure I speak for many when I say that we are deeply grateful for everything you’re doing… 🙏
-
I've been navigating all these symptoms, and more, for over 3 years. My most recent LongCovid update is GI. This just keeps getting better & better...😢
-
Started getting allergies, headaches,dizziness, dehydrated feeling at times, tinnitus which is soooo annoying. Got very sick January 2, bad flu bug, was sooo sick, throwing up, couldn't eat much and to top it all off, caught a horrible cold, coughing lots, depressed , runny nose for months.

This is horrible… unfortunately all my symptoms are pretty constant… hoping they go away soon!! Going on 3 weeks wahhhh 😢 Good video! This was good to understand a bit more about what’s going on in by body and brain
-
Thanks for this video. So many people with longcovid come accross disbelief. This video will help them (me) explain what they are experiencing.
-
18 months into long covid still have extreme fatigue unfortunately
-
I had the disease in September 22. Still have all these symptoms, including anxiety and depression. Hope others don’t have the hell I went through. I am getting somewhat better with minerals and vitamins that have some benefit for me.
-
Thank you for bringing this up for all of us who have been there done that
-
I have long Covid for about a month and all these symptoms are spot on but you forgot anxiety and depression. I’ve never had anxiety or depression prior to getting Covid and when my symptoms flare up I get a feeling of doom, anxiety, and depression.
-
I keep coming down with covid every year since the end of 2019. I'm just now starting to get over the 4th round of it and this was by far the worst round yet. It's been 4 1/2 weeks. I'm so done with covid.
-
This video is extremely helpful and I hope can be used more widely. I have had long covid (after being very fit and well) for six months and have shared this video with family and colleagues to raise awareness. Thank you
-
Prednisone! Works great!
-
Thank you so much 🙏🏾
-
It’s been 2 years and still having trouble concentrating
-
Thank you for this wonderful visual summary. Very easy to follow for people who don´t understand what we have been through.
-
Great, thank you!

So I've had all of those symptoms since I had my second Pfizer vacc in 2021, and the only thing that's gotten better is the palpitations. Slightly. I did not make a fuss about it being vacc related because i was hoping for medical help (unfortunately medical professionals are tempted to write you off as mentally ill if you imply vaccine injury), irregardless none of these symptoms seem to worry my doctor. Its nice to see at least this. The symptoms suck, im half the person i was before them, but my biggest worry is what kind of damage is being done? I do know i now have multiple nodules in my lungs, nothing big enough to cause the chest pressure and sob ive been feeling for 2.5 years ...

Thanks again for the video. I just would like to comment that the disability caused by Long Covid, isn't only sporadic. It can actually last weeks and months.
