I just now read your post. I am still dealing with the same. I hope you are doing better.
Today was the worst bout of anxiety I’ve ever experienced. I have never experienced such a terrible panic attack. I never had one until long Covid. I wonder if anyone has found anything to help this on -going anxiety. I don’t want to get hooked on a benzodiazepine.
But I came very close to going to the ER tonight. I have a knee procedure scheduled for tomorrow. I don’t want to cancel and then have wait for another appointment. I’m trying to get through it all. Sometimes the only thing that helps me is to get through the worst of it, then get online with the mayo.org group when I can sit at my computer. It’s true that it helps to know others understand what you’re going through. I am truly thankful for the people I’ve “met” here. God Bless you all.

I’m also going through the same symptoms since I had covid last November 2022. I am anxious by nature but now it’s anxiety with depression, hot flashes, palpitations and sweating. I finally spoke to the doctor and he first said I shouldn’t blame everything on covid.. I did explain that it started with covid, however he ordered tests for me and aside from being mildly anemic and low in vitamin d I was fine. I’m very happy they didn’t find anything but I still have symptoms
