@suefish I'm sorry to hear that, because it means you have been and continue to suffer. I truly hope for relief for all of us. Hearing people who have never suffered from long covid say "it's like a bad cold" is so upsetting. People in my own family say things like that. Like most other things in life, I imagine this is all a matter of luck.. some people get the virus and lose their lives, others are severely incapacitated long term, and It feels to me there is a massive number of us who have long term suffering on a level that makes us miserable but does not incapacitate us. And then there are people who got it, cleared it and it's like they never had it. Random and a degree of luck. Although I get tired of the fight and every so often I take a pause from it, I will never fully give up the search for answers and relief. The quality of life depends on it!!
