I developed hypertension that can not be controlled by any medication. I never had high blood pressure in my life until I got long covid .I have low grade fevers every day up to 100.7. I also have chronic fatigue . I have short term memory loss. I had extreme weight loss. I weigh 107 pounds . When I got LC I lost 30lbs and I was not over weight. So I went down to 100lbs. I have gained 7 pounds in 2years.

1 dropped from 220 to 150. Not good. I either forgot to eat or felt too tired and didn’t care enough to go to the kitchen. I set timers on my phone to eat

Hi Miss Lauren and all of you out there reading this. I developed the hypertension that cannot be controlled by any medication also. All I get is more side effects and all they want me to do is take another pill which only gives me more effects. I had the tilt table test last week, but they were unable to do the sweat test, so I have to wait two weeks . I go back on March 14, for the final test and then they have to review the findings and then I will find out the results. This is scary, I am so afraid of falling or fainting again. My insurance is still fighting bills from a year ago and will not pay them thinking it was caused from work or an accident, yeh it was an accident and its called Covid, vaccines, and long haul syndrome. Prayers for all my friends on this site. Thanks to Mayo for giving us this site so we can communicate with each other. Hugs to all of you.
