My husband and I got the delta variant of covid in 2021. My husband and I both were taken to the hospital. He suffered multiple strokes because covid formed a blood clot that burst and hit the front, left, and back of his brain. I could not stay awake but since I did not need oxygen they discharged me after 4 hours. I was taken home and quarantined. I was told about my husband the next day. I could do nothing but pray. He did recover and had to retire from his job after 53 years. Three months after healing from covid my hair began to come out. I was told by my doctor this was a side effect of the virus,it causes your hair to go into the "shedding" phase. I thought I was going to loose all my hair, it was depressing. Two years have passed & my husband and I both have suppressed appetites, brain fogs, and I gained 23 pounds in 5 months. Doctors tell me my blood work is normal, and can't explain it. Covid changes things in a persons body. So much more research needs to be done to determine exactly what covid does to the human system. Our smell, taste, appetite , neurological, and body has been changed, and the medical community cannot explain it. I hope more research is done on the long term effects and why it effects the human body like it does. Blood work looks good so maybe the research should be looking at in the DNA of the body, or on a cellular level. Not knowing how it was created, I think puts us at a disadvantage. It is depressing to think the medical community may never figure out what this virus really did to us in order to help us get back to normal.
