Prob ask many times. Wife had covid in early August. Still have shortness of breath and chest tightness. We will be taking her to a cardiologist. But not sure if they can do anything

My wife is 5’6 123 pounds. Think about giving her ivermectin. What should I do OT doctors?

I’ve had hundreds to thousand of extra heart beats (PVCs) a day since October of last year. Started a month after I was pretty sick with delta. Got way worse after I got one shot of Pfizer when the hospital I work for mandated it. Never had one in my life before. Refused any more of the shots after that.

Had an ablation a month ago which hasn’t really helped.

41. Work out every day. Not fat, did triathlons and powerlifting before. Mine feel miserable due to having a low heart rate giving the heart a really long pause after the extra beat.

I wouldn’t call it long Covid exactly but I have other coworkers who had the same kinda thing, it eventually resolved for them though.

My cousin is still struggling with long Covid after months. We knew he was high risk due to preexisting conditions since he has fibromyalgia but he still caught it

It’s really sad. When he has his medicine he’s able to live a normal life but when the medicine runs out he has cold sweats, nausea, diarrhea, can barely get out of bed. It’s a terrible disease

Fibromyalgia is very real. It may be an even worse disease than long Covid

She got the jab? The adverse events of the jab are called long covid.

Fibromyalgia is just a weak human.

Get her skinny arse in the gym. Her lungs are likely just weak rather than damaged.

I had an elevated HR of about 10-12 bpm for the following 3 months after COVID.

Also really struggled with workouts due to shortness of breath during that period.

I cleared up eventually, as I would imagine hers will as well.

My sister is an RN in cardiology. The “long covid” is actually the jab doing its thing.

Get her d dimer levels checked.

Wrong. My cousin is the bravest person I know. He battles his disease everyday. Even though he’s on disability he still goes and does his job as a charter captain

Good god the OT never disappoints. Too skinny/too fat…what is the perfect weight for our women.

And to answer the OP, I had it bad last August and then a mild case in January. I still have a lingering cough. Granted I’m not in the best of shape but started hitting the gym about 2 months ago and got some of my stamina back. Don’t know if the stamina thing was from COVID or just not working out, drinking heavily, and eating badly the last 25 years.
