In September of last year I was experiencing a combination of symptoms that I did not link to COVID, but looking back on it I'm starting to question it. First, I had debilitating brain fog. It felt link I was thinking through pea soup. I went to my doctor twice due to this symptom, but my blood work (CBC, not a COVID test) looked normal and he suggested this was due to "stress" or "changes in sleep", although I was not experiencing either of those. Around this same time, I would experiencing "near-syncope" upon standing. It got to the point where I everything was fading to black and I would have to take a knee to maintain consciousness. Again I talked to my doctor he shrugged his shoulders. He said my blood pressure was normal but he referred me to a cardiologist. I passed a stress EKG so they said there was nothing structurally wrong with my heart. Fast forward a few months and the symptoms have abated, although they still persist in a diminished form. This makes me really wonder if this was COVID due to autonomic nerve dysfunction. https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/news/newsroom/news-releases/... |
