Unfortunately yes, but my weight gain has been over the past 6 months. I had covid in July and then again in Nov 2022. I'm not doing anything different.

I was diagnosed with Long Covid two months ago. I had a horrible case last July. Within five months, I gained twenty pounds: Unexplained in areas I've never carried weight. I've gained 30 pounds total since July. While I've never considered myself a vain person, the change in my physical appearance has been very challenging, as well as dealing with my awful brain fog, headaches, and coordination issues. I'm an active 43 year old woman and have never been this heavy in my life (even during pregnancies.) I also wasn't experiencing peri-menopause symptoms before having Covid. Anyone else experience this?

Yes, I also have the same problem. I had Covid January of 2021. Still suffer from the effects of it. Weight gain, no energy, headaches etc. still have loss of taste.
