HI..Covidstinks2023..it has attacked me since december 2021 when I had Covid..it re-triggered ulcerative colitis after being in re-mission for almost 20 years and now it has attacked my respiratory system since mid august and it wont let go. I have a severe cough that will not go away..urgent care, er visits, primary care visits, medications, antibiotics ( last dose today) and I no where near getting rid of this. I have not been able to work again now for going on two weeks, the fatigue is also pretty overwhelming too. We never know what our day is going to be like. I was exposed to covid and I think I may have had it again, I am having the same same symptoms I had in 2021, that nasty cough. The ER doctor said they have been seeing an increase of patients with long haul covid getting bronchitis and asthma. This is getting old and I wish there was something they could do for us, but I do not think they know what to do for us. I have had doctors tell me I have anxiety, which I am tired of hearing, do you think they would have anxiety if they felt like us on a daily basis. Most of them they only want to push more medications that have side effects that only make us sicker. I think my immune system is so goofed up from this syndrome and the dose of steroids they had me on for so long that my body does not know how to react any longer. We need to keep fighting, they tell me I am tough but I would like to be able to enjoy what time I have left, but I stay home because If I have something that is catchy I do not want to pass it to my co workers or friends.. Stay strong and we need to support each other. I am glad they have this site for us. We can give each other what tips work and do not work for us. Sincerely, Kitty2
