Bouncing back from COVID with EDS

Hi everyone,

I ended up testing positive for Covid at the start of this month. I’ve had Covid about three times prior however this time around, I am not bouncing back.

I’m currently on day 14, I feel like I am breathing through a straw, showers are the most exhausting thing, I’m out of breath when I stand up and go up the stairs, my whole body feels bruised and achy- more so than usual. I’m struggling to feed myself and drink water. I’m sleeping far more than I’m used to and when I wake up, I’m still so exhausted, I’ve never felt so tired in my life. It’s like the worst hangover combined with the worst period of my life.

Did any of you also struggle with coming back from COVID? Extreme fatigue? Do you have any recommendations of anything that helped you through it? I seriously wish I could swim through tiger balm.

I’m currently diagnosed with an arrhythmia, POTS, MCAS, hEDS.
