I have suspected since getting COVID 20222 that looking at a lot of the symptoms that encephalitis is the key diagnosis. In me I present with sinus post nasal drip but all the fatigue common to many of us I strongly think is due to Covid encephalitis. 40 yrs ago I had herpes simplex encephalitis and so many symptoms described are the same. In those days there were no anti virals. Maybe though it’s too late for that as it could be attack from auto immunity. I don’t understand why papers haven’t started to find the cause. The lady with vertigo and after seeing so many Doctors eventually had her vertigo diagnosed by MRI showing sphenoid sinus pushing on cerebellum. Do read her account this or next page. It’s definitely a physical cause and as a doctor OK recently retired I strongly believe the cause is there and can be treated. In my case it looks Iike I will have CT then sinus surgery. Get many opinions this is your life.
I’ve been to a neurologist a couple times. He has another patient with the same problem, but all the testing he has prescribed has shown nothing. I just went to an ENT Friday for an evaluation and they fund nothing. I am giving up on finding the problem and just living with it for now.
