Low-grade fevers weeks after COVID: Is this common with long COVID?

Posted by pdd @pdd, Feb 28, 2022

I was hospitalized for COVID and home since 2/3. On 2/24 started to have low grade fevers in the evening. Tylenol takes care of the fever. I am on home oxygen still but improving. Mobility and strength is better. Important to note immunosuppression due to cancer therapy a year ago. Lymphocytes are still depleted. Is this common with long COVID?

I found out from others that it is a slow process. In fact, my sister was about 6 weeks before her temp returned to her normal. Wish you the best as well.

I followed up with the doctor and he ordered a chest x-ray. It showed I have bilateral pneumonia. I guess my body was trying to tell me something.
Btw, I am also a NJ native, now living in Tennessee. I miss NJ!

I've had low grade fevers for about 3 years off and on. It comes on in the late afternoon and goes up to about 100 with chills and aches. It is typically gone once I go to bed. The many drs I see do not know the cause and don't seem concerned so I'm just used to it. It seems to be the least of my symptoms post covid.
