    Hi Dina, sorry to hear you're feeling unwell. I would say there is no normal with this virus, but it is recommended to take it easy, both physically and mentally if you can. when I say mentally, I mean try to minimise stress...very difficult to do especially when feeling unwell. The dizzy spells come and go.
