Hi @hopeful33250
Thank you for the response.
I didn’t press my doctor about the dietician referral...she wants to give me 2 months to see if it will resolve on it’s own since I had Covid just 2 months ago.
My cardiologist put me on a low dose of beta blocker and that has helped tremendously with the elevated HR, insomnia and fatigue...these symptoms all appear to have been related to my HR. So, any fatigue now is very minimal.
My weight has gone up a few pounds over the last month but I’m also eating more calories (compared to pre-Covid) to give me a boost. I have a good/normal appetite now after my initial recovery..I have no problem eating and no digestive issues (at least that I can tell).
At this point, I’m going to try to maintain what and how much I’m eating and see what happens. My Dr did give me a contact at a local university that’s conducting studies around post-Covid health issues and I’m going to be involved with that so hopefully that’ll provide some answers.
Thank you for replying and anything I learn or can pass on to help then I’ll certainly do so here in this forum.
Thank you!

It is so good to know that you are beginning to gain weight and are able to eat more. That is a good trend! When you had COVID, did your sense of taste diminish? If so, could that have contributed to the weight loss?
Since your COVID diagnosis was just 2 months ago, waiting a while longer seems like a good idea. I will certainly be interested in what you find out from the local university that is studying post-COVID-related issues.
I appreciate you keeping in touch and I will look forward to your next post.
