Tested positive 12 days ago so actually should be feeling okay now. I have had it really mildly but woke up today and feel so dizzy. I don't feel "poorly" as such just really dizzy and lightheaded. Anyone had this

Maybe it’s worth checking your blood oxygen levels? (Pulse oximeter. Some new model Samsung phones also have them). It could be a symptom of hypoxia.

Yes check oxygen levels but also have you been eating and drinking well? Could you be dehydrated?

Same here, dizziness been my main symptom. On day 8 now and seems to be passing. My oxygen levels were fine even at the height of dizziness. Hang in there!

Dizziness can be a sign of low blood pressure

I really feel for you. I’m on dsy 13 and feel dizzy and so exhausted. I’m sleeping 12 hours a night and still feel so tired in the day I can’t really do anything. My Aunt took 3 weeks until she started to feel like she was getting better.
