i'm female, 80, and dealing with long covid and have mcas for almost 6 yrs. i also have autoimmune issues that i've had long before getting a mild case of covid in dec. 2020. i've been hard-core exerciser for 40 yrs. and rode my spin bike at home when i got covid as i only lost taste/smell. i take many supplements and my symptoms are insomnia even with several sleep meds; fatigue needing 2 naps a day in spite of strict sleep regimen; now have many food sensitivities tested by naturpath; terrible brain fog and every emotion has been heightened 10 times as before getting covid. i get watery eyes/flushing/tingling in feet if i eat something that triggers me; had to eliminate gluten/dairy/beef but can eat chicken; put electrolytes in water which i carry around all day. i can still exercise; don't push myself and pace around what i need to do; have cognitive issues and do puzzles and brain games; listen to meditation/buddha teachings...have dizziness and low blood pressure. for me, i've come to accept that this is as good as it's going to get...some moments i get overwhelmed but i can still do what i want to do at 80 and prob. healthier than most. haven't gotten an official diagnosis but there's soooo much information on youtube and internet. my hubby has some long covid symptoms but some are different; oh forgot to mention constipation; have had crohns/uc all my life and am in remission but constipation is new. long covid is the gift that keeps on giving and each day is different.
