I contacted Covid late 2020. I suddenly lost all my bodily functions, my husband had to get me in the car. Was treated well with remdisavir. Went through home therapy and got pretty much back to normal. I am on oxygen, yrs prior to Covid, also have had prior vertigo. I have had all vaccines. But late last year I started having balance problems. Have fallen twice (minor) falls last year on my butt. Probably fell 4 - 6 times this year, most on my buttocks. The last two were more severe. Went to pt in June for balance and it helped a lot. Except I fell big time the night of my last therapy appointment. Went to therapy again after my leg strength didn’t get better. That worked out great. Was discharged again and face planted on the bathroom floor. Had stitches in my lip, my dentist tried to stabilize my front teeth with a wire, I’ll find out in a couple more weeks if that worked any. But thankfully I didn’t break any bones. It all just reminds me of my Covid symptoms again. I have learned on my own that I cannot turn my head without being stable like most. On the ground I will go. I’m good at home, but haven’t ventured out with friends because you never know when the imbalance will strike. I had a mild stroke over 20 years ago, so I’m on blood thinners. Even had a recent MRI that only showed my previous stroke.
It’s just good to talk with people who know what you’re talking about. God bless you all. 🙏🏼

I am going through long covid treatment. They are finding some people with weak lower extremities have a collapsed artery in the pelvic area that requires surgery. I had a special mri (mrv) done to determine if I had this issue.
