I don't have numbness, but there are times my feet feel really hot, like they're having a hot flash. I was positive 2 weeks ago. Vaxxed & 1 booster. Age 69. My symptoms were massive headache for several days, funny feeling in mouth ( like having eaten to many vinegar chips), cough with phlegm, very tired & sleepy, shortness of breath. Blurry vision loss of taste & smell, joint aches. O2 was high 80s low 90s. Lack of concentration. 2 weeks post, still have intermittent headache & blurry vision, less cough but still phlegmy, short of breath, like sometimes I can't catch my breath, less lethargic, still no taste or smell but no funny mouth feel. O2 mostly low 90s. Concentration better but not like pre covid. I sew a lot & have had difficulty with patterns I make frequently. Never had any fever. Have not seen my doctor, not sure if I need to or just give it more time. I am obese, take thyroid, depression, GERD & asthma meds. Asthma doesn't seem affected. The shortness of breath is different from asthma symptoms.

Welcome @butterbeanme, If you haven't already reported your COVID symptoms, you might want to use the VAERs site to report an adverse event - https://vaers.hhs.gov/reportevent.html.

It sounds like it's still early in your COVID recovery. You might want to join the following discussion and see if others may have some suggestions that help:

Given that you mentioned you haven't seen a doctor yet and one of the symptoms is shortness of breath, you might want to give them a call just to be safe.
