Any update from your assessment?
The best contact I got with Long Covid Symptoms came from my niece. She told me there was a Post Covid 19 Recovery Clinic a half hour from my home. Looked it up online and called on Monday. First virtual interview was question and answer with a nurse the next week. The following week I met with the nurse practitioner who runs the program. Face to face question and answer, recorded on her laptop. No clinical evaluation. The first thing she addressed was daytime sleepiness. She asked if I’d had a sleep study. I went in two weeks, and was diagnosed with severe sleep apnea. The sleep tech had to put oxygen on me at 2 AM. My O2 level dropped to 85%. The CPAP is my new best friend. I used to wake up 5-6 times a night, used the bathroom, thinking that woke me up. Now, using the CPAP, I wake up once during the night to use the bathroom. Finding a local recovery clinic can get you the referrals you need to recover and heal. She also referred me for testing. Hang in there. I have prayed for wisdom and direction in my Covid recovery.
