Although every one is different along with the symptoms not having support as this is all new is so hard. When I advised my employer I had long covid they stood me down due to the chest pain. It got to the point where I have had to resign from my job cause my employer was non supportive. I'm so happy that I've made contact with someone who can relate and am able to bounce and hear your experiences and know how you deal with certain factors. I am in Australia and this is all so new but doctors need to catch up on this so they are able to help those who are going through this

Timeflight, I am so sorry about your job. Unless someone has walked in these shoes....they don't get it!
Covid causes chest pain in some....not in others.
Covid causes extreme fatigue in some...not in others.
Covid causes gut issues in some....not in others.
Covid causes brain fog in some...not in others.
Covid ramps up inflammation in some...not in others.
I could go on and on. I get it. There are many on here that are battling long Covid. You are right. This is new to doctors. We have to be patient as doctors are learning more and more about Covid. What a brutal disease. Take it a day at a time and rest if you need too and don't feel guilty about it. Stay hopeful.
