I tested positive for Covid on Wednesday, Dec 7, and finally negative on Monday, the 19th. I feel better of course, but still suffer from on and off fatigue as I try to gradually transition into my normal activities. I assume this is a normal part pf recovery for some people. Is there any average amount of time that it may take before I feel more "normal." How long is the recovery before they call it long Covid?

Just about every other day, I have flu like symptoms. I feel tired, on & off headache, nausea & fatigue. On the good days, I feel like I am truly getting better. January 5th will be 4 months since being diagnosed with COVID. It is a slow process. I drink ginger tea for the nausea & am eating only healthy foods- lots of fruits & vegetables( cooked) and wild fish. It is pretty much the Mediterranean diet.
