OT: Covid Disorientation

Post by Sheriff Buford » Thu Apr 08, 2021 3:35 am

Dang! Caught covid for the second time about a month ago. For you folks that have had covid and experienced the side effect of disorientation, how long did the disorientation last you? Was the improvement gradual or was it immediate?

Socially-distanced cyber hugs for you and the missus.
Even if only one was infected, both suffer.
One question--officially Dx'd both times?
Please share any symptoms with your medical team, as the more they know, the better.
They only learn from patients--no books written yet.

My mom was disoriented for 2-3 days, she took a shower and got dressed to go out for the day even though it was night time. It lasted about 2-3 days in her case.

Not sure how valuable N = 1 is but there you go.

I got it the first time in Jan 2020. When the antibodies test came out I tested positive. Got it again about a month ago, and tested positive again for antibodies. Did a number on my lung and kidneys. This disorientation is bad. Like a good drunk, tho' I hadn't had beer in maybe a year and a half........ which reminds me :roll: ......
