Dianna Cowern Instagram – I have 4 months worth of selfies like this because couch is all I’ve been doing. Since July, I’ve been struggling with what’s called “Long COVID.” Someone you know might’ve had this syndrome, and not even known. For me, the symptoms are, being unable to get out of bed for a few weeks after I pushed to finish my last YouTube video. (Post-Exertional Malaise). Becoming dizzy and nauseous if I walk more than 10 mins a day (Exercise Intolerance). Spelling cancel “cansul” in an email, losing my place in the sentence I was just writing, inability to process any scientific papers (Brain Fog). Getting extremely stressed while driving. (Emotional Disregulation) Along with extreme fatigue, sleeping like a teenager, breathlessness, digestive issues, chest pain, and kryptonite intolerance. Post-COVID syndrome takes a few forms, including post-ICU complications, but mine is very similar to Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). I’m hoping to make a video soon about this, but not yet. There won’t be a lot of videos from me for the next few months. I’m sad too. 😛
