← Return to Long haul Covid tremors and muscle spasms

I've been experiencing a tremor in my hands and muscle spasms in my legs for over a year now (since I got covid the 1st time). My neurologist doesn't seem to be concerned about my tremor, but then again, she doesn't seem that concerned with my incoordinated, slow-as-a-snail ataxic gait.

I need help and encouragement that I will return to normal someday. I am in my 50s and was an active, healthy woman before covid hit.

Hi there, how are you now? I just wanted to encourage you by saying ‘you’re not alone’. What you have experienced sounds very similar to myself, right down to the ‘ataxic gait’.
Hang in there 😊

Unfortunately, we seem to be part of a class that has been left behind. I understand the world wants to move on from Covid, but every day is our own fully blown, surging pandemic. My neurologist did not find it strange that I couldn’t stand on 1 foot for longer Than one second, never mind the fact it took me a few tries to discern between my left and my right foot! Furthermore, Barak Obama is NOT the current president of the United States, nor was, she concerned that I didn’t know what hospital I was in… Mind you, it was the hospital I was born in! I was not told that the MRI scans of my brain showed brain lesions, and sadly it feels like I am the last one to know that things are being stripped away from me. I too, was very healthy and active at 48 years old, and now seemingly where you are at as well. Nothing in my body seems to function, normally, and the lack of understanding or desire to be around other people is defeating. If nothing else, we can support one another as a unified community and remind each other, that we are not alone. My love, understanding, and hope go out to all those who are affected as well.
