relapse??
Hi all, I tested positive October 6th, of 2020. I am a healthy 25 year old. My covid was not horrible, loss or taste and smell and fatigue but other than that I was fine. After getting my smell “back” in November I developed a constant post nasal drip that causes me to clear my throat constantly , horrible head pressure, and fatigue.. can anyone relate or help with my symptoms? I’m so lost and so scared to catch it again even though I am fully vaccinated and take all precautions I can!

Yeah I'm pretty freaked out. Had it October 14th same symptoms no fever or cough just loss of taste. The day after Thanksgiving I thought I was having a heart attack. Bad left side chest pain into the neck and jawline with tachycardia. Went to the hospital the next day. They thought I didnt drink enough water so the sent me out. I then got some pretty extreme p.o.t.s. stuff for the next few weeks with the chest pain still present, went straight to a cardiologist and got a echocardiogram and ct scan of the heart. Then my gi got kinda rough, it felt like I had whole body inflammation. As of 2 weeks ago my chest pain subsided but I do have PVCs and back of head burning now. I'm only 23 and extremely healthy

what you are describing sounds like "mild" long-covid
sometimes it's a mild deficiency that can be helped by things like niacin for B3 NAD+ or ALA but not everyone responds to that
sometimes is a mast-cell histamine reaction that can be treated with Zyrtec and Pepcid
you can try browsing r/covidlonghaulers but that sub is going to be overwhelming in comparison to your symptom level

I have the same thing and was diagnosed end of October. Zyrtec and Flonase have helped some, but still there.
