Did covid change you permanently?

I got vaccine and covid same time. So I don't know whether to blame vaccine or covid itself. But its been like weeks and like im different ever since covid. I feel like im. not my old self really. I also generally move slower and not as anxious. I had realy bad social anxiety and i guess still do but i dont react anxiously as much to it.

I feel older too cause im not a spring chicken anymore I feel like.

First time, a year ago, I had some unknown variant. Whole darned family got it except my brother. We all got through it pretty quickly. Then, for me, the fog and exhaustion started. Took a good 6 months to go.

This time, it seems it was Omicron. Over it in 10 days. Only thing I am finding id thar waitressing for 8 hours a day is so exhausting. Tommorow is 4th day back. Getting there!

The "Covid fog" lol

I've seen it in a lot of my patients and co-workers after the recover.

It does go away eventually.

It has nothing to do with the vaccine. Just the physical toll the virus has on your body. It wears you down.

Thanks hun...

@SecretsofKB I’m really glad to hear that the problem the asker described is from the virus and not the vaccine. I got a bit nervous after reading this question!

[PrettyPriya]

No. I have the vaccine and I got it recently. It was mild and I was back to normal in a week. Could be the strain I got.

I just replied! Thanks!

I am a bit more careful, at the firehouse we have protocols in place above and beyond the CDC guidlines.
Over new years we had 10 people out sick.
1 was his 4th time.
Kind of a common sense thing.
