Hi, I had Covid in August - took Plaxovid (5 days). On the 6th day the left side of my face became numb starting with my earlobe. The numbness has spread up and down the left side of my body. My B12 was 203 so I'm taking supplements.
None of my doctors offered steroids as a way to stem the progression. I have Pulmonary Sarcoid and MAC as well. Nerve conduction test is next week.

I’m sorry to hear about your symptoms. In my case, the diagnosis was peripheral neuropathy, which presented in both sides of my body. The plan to use a short term course of steroids would start as early as possible with the onset of symptoms. I hope that you will find resolution to your situation. Best of luck.
