I am new here and i am very confused with all the covid-19 information. On Tuesday 18th Feb i got a very bad headache, had stinging eyes and felt generally weak with hand and feet numbness. I also had muscle and joint pain combined with feeling like i had flu like symptoms but without the sneezing and runny nose etc. I was really short of breath for a couple of weeks and couldn't do anything without getting rely out of breath. The fatigue was immense. The following week i was very dizzy, bad headaches, had to sleep all day every day and was in constant muscle and joint pain. I went to A&E on 24th Feb and did blood tests which were normal apart from showing i had an infection somewhere. It took me until about 1st march to feel mostly normal again.

Could this have been anything like the covid-19?

Id also like to add that i work in a very busy a&e department which means i have been exposed to alot of potential and confirmed covid-19 patients.
