It Is Now 3 Years Since I've Been Diagnosed With COVID. I Have Lung Damage Because Of It. Pulmonologist Calls It COVID Fibrosis.
A myCOVIDteam Member asked a question 💭

I see the Pulmonologist 3 times a year and take Cortisone tablets daily. My oxygen level sits around 95%. I have been experiencing lower oxygen levels in the evening and in the morning when I wake up. My Pulmonologist has suggested lung replacement, but said that it is not very successful. Has anyone else experienced what I have and if so, do you have any suggestions?

Hi All
I stay in Pretoria South Africa
I contracted Covid in May 2022, and despite not being seriously ill, are still struggling with the Long Covid symptoms to this day. Initially the symptoms would resurface every 4-5 days, now every 4-5 weeks. Sometimes it pulls me down and I need to take a day or 2 of sick leave, other times I can push through with allot of effort and forcing myself to cope. I have a management position at a big financial institution, and it is impacting my job as well as… read more

Pneumonia
A myCOVIDteam Member asked a question 💭

My whole house had covid we all got better except my husband he went to the hospital and was told he had pneumonia they sent him home and he passed away about 24 hours later. I have seen many people develop blood clots when they have pneumonia so I am trying to figure out wjy the Doctor did not see this? Also the fema would not pay for his burial because the death certificate did not mention covid. I am so upset because I have seen many people were given blood thinner's and he was not. He was… read more
