If you’ve ever had Covid-19, you may have noticed that even once the virus passed and the aspect flows showed it was negative, you continued to have episodes of illness. It’s frustrating, confusing, and life-limiting, but it’s not uncommon. When I caught Covid 3 months ago, I thought I had dodged a brutal fight and stood up after about 4 days.
However, he would possibly have celebrated the end of Covid too soon, as what followed was several months of constant unrest. I had one week without blood, then an insect in my abdomen the next, followed by a urinary tract infection, then a few others without blood. Also, during all this time, I felt constant low-level fatigue, mucus and found that I had headaches and muscle aches.
Mentioning it to a friend, she exclaimed that she had also experienced the same thing and that she had talked to other people who just can’t get rid of the feeling of being “off. “So I started researching online and found that actually, feeling bad for months after covid was nothing unusual and thousands of people were suffering from realizing what was going on.
Cases have increased by 30% in the two weeks.

So with figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) estimating that a total of 2. 3 million other people in private families have contracted the virus over the past week, a 32% increase from last week, it was time to take a look at that.
I spoke to the GP and female fitness specialist, Dr. Amina Albeyatti, to find out exactly why we can all suffer from a low-level illness after contracting covid and get her most productive recommendation on how our immune system. Here’s what she had to say. . .
“We are still at the beginning of our post-covid knowledge and study collection. So far, what we are learning is that most patients who have contracted covid-19 recover within 2 to 12 weeks, there is a significant percentage who have prolonged Covid symptoms that can lead to decreased cognition (brain fog), sleep disturbances, shortness of breath or not having the same exercise tolerance as before Covid and fatigue.
“Prolonged covid does not appear to be similar to the severity of your acute infection.
Boost your immunity, fast.

“These persistent symptoms that last for several weeks or months can have an effect on sleep, appetite and physical activity, which in turn can affect your immunity and cause recurrent minor illnesses.
“We also know that covid infections can also cause chronic damage to expressive organs. In many cases, scarring in the lungs, inflammation around the heart, and mild kidney failure can also lead to more disease because its structure is in fixed mode to heal. These inflamed areas.
“Finally, post-resuscitation syndrome, in which severe Covid patients requiring admission to intensive care have a much longer healing path. Its isolation for the family, the use of hard medications, sedation, and the feeling of loss and dignity in a strange environment can cause a lot of post-traumatic stress disorder after discharge, hallucinations, reduced memory and cognition, as well as the effects of the medical aspect of the disease and the medications used to treat it.
After covid, we are very aware of our health, mild symptoms and late access to your doctor can make you more involved with your health. Health anxiety and anxiety in general have increased since the pandemic and can give the feeling of weakened immunity. lately there is no evidence that we have more immunocompromised patients. However, it’s not unusual to feel worse and worse when you’re stressed, don’t sleep well, don’t eat as well, and sometimes feel helpless. These are all symptoms that have greater than two years, especially in general practice.
