COVID-19 and Long Covid: Tell us about your diagnosis experience!

@Courtney_J In my case it was the fever and fatigue, and that my husband had already tested positive. I did NOT seek medical advice because at that time we were advised to stay at home and only call A&E in case of severe symptoms. My GP sent us to the Covid Recovery NHS site when it got set up and I've been donating plasma every few weeks because I still have the antibodies. 

Hello @keiraH‍, I had a similar experience myself at the beginning, but eventually it got to the point where my fever spiked and my breathing got difficult so my wife took me to hospital. I was "lucky" I guess you could say because I spent only a little over a fortnight there and I never had to be intubated. But now the doctors say I have lung damage that might be permanent and after 5 months I still symptoms that come and go and breathing issues. 

Looking forward to the day when I can look back at it all as a bad memory.

Best,
Jim
