Hello and welcome to the Long COVID Support Community! We are so pleased to have you here. My name is Eve, and I am part of the team that runs Long COVID Support. I have not got Long COVID personally, but do know a few people who are experiencing Long COVID. I think it’s important to acknowledge what a difficult condition it is, not only because of the large range of affects it has on people’s bodies, but also the unknown nature of it and how isolating it can be. We hope that by creating this community we can help take away some uncertainty and help connect people. Please introduce yourself so that we can start getting to know you.

Hi,
Not sure if anyone still posts on here but I needed to reach out and share.
I caught COVID July 2022 and was diagnosed with Long COVID Nov 2022. At that time they said that they hoped that it would only be 2 years till things improved and I got wonderful support from the Alfred hospital COVID centre.
I have moved since then out of Melbourne and found a lovely new doctor who wanted to check with what's happening. She, yesterday confirmed the Long COVID diagnosis and here I am still. Not working and living with my Mum.
With me it is mostly cogitative - massive fatigue, brain fog (though I think it feels mostly like cement than fog), bad memory, get irritable very easily. My life is tiny but i do have support with my Mum.
Anyway I just needed to reach out.
Thanks
