← Return to Low-grade fevers weeks after COVID: Is this common with long COVID?

Hi, all. I am a 73 year old woman who tested positive for Covid on March 16, 2024 and began Paxlovid on the same day. I finished Paxlovid on the 20th and thought I was on the mend but after a couple days my symptoms returned; cough, headache, body aches and low grade fever. Today is April 1st and although most of my symptoms have faded my nearly nightly low grade fevers are still with me with occasional night sweats. Today my fever started in the early afternoon, but that is not the usual. Thank you all for sharing your experiences here, even though I’m a bit disheartened to hear how long some of you have been dealing with this. My hope is that modern medicine will soon have an explanation for this phenomenon and hopefully a way to resolve it for all of us.

I think the low-grade fevers after covid seem common. My wife and I both came down with Covid on 2/3/24. She recovered in about 2 weeks. I was dealing with low grade fevers mostly starting around noon thru evening hours which lasted until early March. Tylenol did help. Now, 2 months out, still dealing with some foggy thinking which I did not have before February, it is slowly improving.
