Caught COVID twice in 90 days. This variant is worse than omnicron

Posted by karel @karel, Jan 10, 2023

THE NEW VARIANT Q1 OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT IS TERRIBLE. IT AFFECTS THE SINUSES SO BAD. I HAVE CAUGHT COVID TWICE WITHIN 90 DAYS. LOST HAIR, GAINED TEN POUNDS, HUNGRY, BUT CANT SMELL OR TASTE WHAT IM EATING. ALL INFLAMMATORY BLOOD MARKERS ARE HIGH INCLUDING A WHITE COUNT OVER 15,000, AND ITS BEEN 3 WEEKS, SINCE I GOT THE SECOND BOUT. I HAD A BAD REACTION TO THE FIRST PFIZER SHOT AND HAVE MANY MORBIDITIES, MAYBE THATS WHY I CAUGHT IT TWICE. I WEAR 2 MASKS, AND HARDLY GO OUT. THIS IS JUST TERRIBLE. PEOPLE PLEASE WEAR MASKS, AND IF YOU HAVE SYMPTOMS DONT GO NEAR PEOPLE HACKING ALL OVER THE PLACE. THIS QUARANTINE FOR 5 DAYS SHOULD BE CHANGED UNTIL YOU HAVE NO MORE COUGH. ANYONE CAUGHT THIS TWICE IN 90 DAYS OR LESS.GOD HELP US ALL. THIS IS NEVER GOING TO END,

I CAUGHT COVID TWICE IN 90 DAYS, THIS TIME I HAVE SPONTANEOUS NOSE BLEEDS. I HAD NOSE CAUTERIZED, BUT ONCE/TWICE A WEEK I COULD JUST BE SITTING WATCHING TV, AND HAVE A HEAVY NOSEBLEEDS. ANYONE HAVE THIS TROUBLE.

My 17yo had Covid in July 2022 and has been struggling with post-Covid syndrome since then (mostly GI issues), but in the last month has started having spontaneous, heavy nosebleeds as well, at least a few a week.

I caught covid twice in 90 days. This latest variant is worse. Severe nasal congestion, weakness, and nosebleeds, so much so have to have nose cauterized. Antibiotics, steroids, nothing helps. Has anyone else have this.

Hi, I know it’s a late reply but I have covid at present and have severe nasal congestion, headaches and really awful nosebleeds too. No pain as yet in my sinuses so no infection but i do feel loads of pressure in that area. Hopefully it will stop soon. Hope you are fully recovered.

How long did it take you guys to recover fully? I have had it since April 09, 2023 and today is April 18, 2023. I have some nose bleeding and feel like I am getting sick all over again after feeling better for a day or two.
Thank you!
