**latest update** - Statin for Covid
Post-COVID Recovery & COVID-19 | Last Active: Dec 17, 2025 | Replies (22)Comment receiving replies
I was on a statin before, during, and after COVID. I had a bad case in March 2021 and continue to suffer from Long COVID since. I went through the breathing issues, the rapid heart rate, daily fevers, numbness, tingling, and pain, brain fog, and fatigue. I’m still dealing with constant fatigue and pain throughout my body on a daily basis. I also continue to forget words and names.

@dmldavis You be good to yourself.I feel ya.I'm forgetting things also at times.I forget to calm down inside and take a few deep breaths.That's when I start worrying that this is gonna get worse.I don't think it is...it's not like it was pre covid.Had the discussion again last night at work with a coworker/supervisor.Told him I felt terrible in my mind at times...not to mention the other things I told him.His response?"You're getting old".
He had covid at one time but healed up like a lot did.
sorry 72 is NOT old.I KNOW.This crap NEVER existed in my life before.NEVER did I lose 30 lbs in one month.Never did my appetite go nuts(NO APPETITE).Haven't been able to gain weight back still.I'm at 141 lbs.6'1".Been like this now for several years.This would have never happened if I hadn't got Covid when I did.

I had the same issues as you. Came down in Jan21. In the hospital for 11 days. Be on statins since I was about 60. Got the covid vaccine 19 on March 14. woke up the next and I thought I had covid all over again. It lasted 6 days like full days with fever and chills and my o2 level went way down. Had oxygen at home till October. Had and vaccine in August and it was worse. Had Myocardia attack. Went to pulmonologist who end up draining. a liter of fluid out the left side of chest. Had 6 cardio procedures in the meantime. Statin BS
