June Covid Thread

[twinmomma]

Just sharing another long haul COVID update. I graduated from post-COVID physical therapy today. I've been going twice a week for a few months to work on building up my lung strength and overall endurance. I had COVID in January and then ended up with multiple pulmonary embolisms from it. I used to get winded walking from one room to another in my house or up and down a flight of stairs. Now I can actually go for a walk around the block and feel ok afterwards. Slow and steady progress!

Both my spouse and I have COVID. I work from home so I got it from my partner or the grocery store.

I seem to have a milder form with spaciness and a sore throat. I expected to have strep not covid. It is a bit frustrating to have come this far without it and catch it now.

edit, my doctor friend sent me that, and then we were chatting about it. And my Apple Watch alarmed 3 times in 30 minutes with a high heart rate notification. I’m just kind of wow at that… it seems like I have proof of a physiological response to Covid anxiety.  and I’m feeling some sort of something about that. As much as I want to know everything and research everything… fuck I guess it’s not good for me.
