    I’m working with Long COVID / ME. It’s no joke. I wonder if I’ll be in the same situation as this man.

    I’ve yet to see a case of long covid that wasn’t coupled with depression and anxiety.

    EDIT: Seems like nobody here has any reading comprehension, everyone seems to have misread my comment as “long covid is just depression and anxiety”.

    Wait is there a test for this? I thought this was not real but I have been absolutely fucking knackered since I’ve had covid at the start of the year

    I’m fairly sure I had COVID a few months ago and the fucker has done damage to my taste and smell. It’s been absolutely ages and I still only get hints here and there. It’s serious business COVID.

    I’ve had it since January 2024 and it’s horrendous, has massively impacted my life. My symptoms are extreme fatigue and asthma mainly. 55 year old male, am just about able to work full time at a desk (have to work from home some days as I’m too fatigued to leave the house) but if there was any physical aspect to my work I would be unable to do.
