It sounds like it is tied to Covid. Did you have the infection and shots? How many infections and shots did you get?

My understanding is the Covid spike protein in infection and made in your body after shots damages endothelial cells that line vessels and organs throughout your body. Many side effects and long term symptoms are caused by this damage.

For example, I never had anything show up as abnormal on my EKG but about a week or two after my 2nd shot, I had significant breathing issues and chest pain like a heart attack at least 3-4 times over 3-4 months after the 2nd shot. My EKG I had to prepare for surgery 6 months after the 2nd shot showed an old intact and lower heart chamber thickening! I was shocked. During my surgery, my blood pressure dropped significantly so they kept me longer to monitor me. I never had that happen before until Covid.

My teen son has a heart defect and has had many long covid symptoms since having Covid two times. I never got the shots for him due to his heart defect and the things I was reading about the heart impact in boys/teens/young men.

*Infarct (heart attack), not intact (just love autocorrect).

I had very early Covid (Jan 2020) - I’ve had every booster but the damage was already done.

I was healthy until my one Covid infection and have never recovered.
