Hi everyone.

I had covid back 1st week in April. 6 days in bed with almighty pain in my kidneys and was convinced it was a serious kidney disease or infection with really high temperatures and the other symptom was a seriously dry mouthno cough that week. was tested positive a couple of days later.

I thought after a couple of weeks off work I'd be able to get back to work big mistake! 4 months later and I've had to go on the sick for a month with chronic fatigue. I thought I could exercise my way to health but it backfired. I WAS feeling the fatigue before now but was somehow managing it but it finally stopped me in my tracks BIG time. Other symptoms include pins and needles in my forearms right to my fingers ,

numbness in my cheeks, cloudy thinking, a kind of numbness in my ham strings and calfs that make me feel like I have lead boots on, anxietyattacks outa the blue, I can't stand for more than 10 or so minutes .

I'm 2 weeks into my 4 weeks off and don't think I'm any better Damn this virus!
