Did anyone have this?
I am having trouble relaxing/sleeping I just feel like I have ants in my pants almost everything feels hyper and I am more unsettled than I've been in a long time
Anyone have any solutions?

Yes I had this. The first night that I had any symptoms I was up, getting drinks (loads), wasn't sure if I wanted the loo or felt sick so kept on getting up a lot. Felt hot and I think the whole night I slept only two hours in total. You are not alone with it OP. However the next day I felt a lot better except for a completely uncontrollable cough

I'm on about day 9 I've been really lucky with minor symptoms but this agitated kind of feeling is like nothing I've experienced before

I hope you feel better soon. It is a horrible thing to have. I certainly wouldn't want to catch it again! Rest up and get plenty of fluids.

That was me. Drove me nuts. Now all I want to do is sleep!

@wetasstenalady how are you feeling now? Has the restlessness passed? Hope so.

Yes, first few nights found it really difficult to settle into sleep, dozed on and off all night but kept tossing and turning.

Slightly but I still feel quite wired for me
Tried meditation etc but it's a horrible feeling

I should imagine a big part of this is anxiety and adrenaline getting you through. I hope you feel better soon OP Flowers

It's only been going for a week and care home residents come first.

It's going to take months.
