Why are my symptoms returning?

I also have had reoccurrence of original symptoms after a vaccination. Luckily they calmed down after about a week. Has anyone experienced getting their COVID symptoms hyped up after having another type of virus? I recently had a cold. A week after I recovered from the cold, all my original long COVID symptoms returned -chronic fatigue, stomach issues, headache, lightheaded, brain fog. I’m still dealing with these issues and hoping they will calm down again soon.

Same thing happened to me. In 2023 I got Covid and then long Covid got a vaccination four months into it and then I felt worse for a while then got better than felt worse. Last year I was starting to turn the table got more strength so I thought well this is a good time to get the vaccine after I did I started feeling worse. Cannotprove one way or the other whether the vaccines made me worse but I believe it did. On the whole vaccines are very good but for some individuals maybe not so much. I have seen conflicting studies saying that many improved after getting a vaccine and then other studies pointing to prolong Long Covid symptoms after vaccination. So I don't know but I'll probably stay away from any more vaccines for Covid that is.

I'm, sorry you are having the flare ups you are having. we try different things to mitigate the flare ups. I don't get vaccines because I have an extremely sensitive system. But I have had long covid now for 15 months. I thought I could beat it about 2 months ago. then the dizziness came back, fatigue, depression, anxiety, and many other symptoms. So, I go back to pacing, it's annoying to accept that I have to do that, but I don't think pushing myself, or thinking, now it's over is working for me. As much as I hate to admit it, pacing makes sense, deep breathing, and accepting this is for now, my reality, You are the first person I have admitted this too. I am a " push through it" person. I had a mold exposure, in 2004, really sick, pushed through it, got much better. I can't push through this, the less I push the better I do. It's not a defeat, it's an acceptance. Love to all that are just trying to figure this out 🙂

Yes, I am experiencing the same. It is very discouraging.

Fascinating. I had Covid 2-3 yrs ago and long Covid mainly now post nasal drip, and exercise down. I have kept up with all vaccines but the last one Moderna for a new form of virus, I too felt as though I had had another dose of Covid fever v tired etc. I’m unsure if with long Covid I should have these in the future curiously no other Covid jab affected me.

I was doing much better with symptoms until the latest booster. About a week later the fatigue, brain fog and muscle pain came roaring back.

I had a severe reaction to the Phizer poster vaccine. Had Covid initially 11/21. Then vaccine in March 2022. No problems. Got the booster in April of 2022. Three days later severe arthritis symptoms. Couldn’t move my swollen hands and joints for a year because the docs theorized that the booster turned what was psoriasis into psoriatic arthritis. Then took 3 injections of Cimzia (biological). It cured the joint symptoms within days. But then immediately became hypothyroid. Also severe fatigue, gastrointestinal issues, weak and heavy feeling all the time, constipation, exercise intolerance, tinnitus, hiatal hernia, bleeding ulcer (probably from all the ibuprofen taken for the previous year of pain and inflammation, swollen lymph areas and heart palpitations. Had 13 scans of most of my body and nobody could tell me anything. Only that I was getting older (I was 61 when this all started and work as a house painter, very physical work with no problems). I’m now 64. Just had COVID again a few months ago but no additional problems except for loss of taste which returned in a few days.
There’s no way I’ll get another vaccine for Covid. Or any live vaccine for anything on the advice of doctors and my own gut feeling.
Just last week I started a microbiome rehab. Will keep you posted on that.

My symptoms came back the week following a Covid booster.

A while back someone commented "I had 60 years to learn my old life, now I have a new life to learn. When you are learning to walk, you fall down a lot but you get up and keep trying."
I am happy you found acceptance.

I just got through a virus-flu A?- and my long covid symptoms were MUCH worse for a few weeks.
