Hi, I had covid few months back now and only just starting to feel ok, fatigue still bad but I've noticed a rash on my body, more like raised bumps than a noticeable red rash and my hair is falling out so bad, no bald patches just really extreme amount that I am losing, had bloods etc done but all normal, has anyone else had this problem after covid? Thanks you

The hair loss is common. That does go away though.

Yes I had lots of hair loss when washing my hair about 2 months after initial illness. Don't worry it stopped after about a month. And was never noticeable.
