Dh is 2 months post covid - he had it pretty badat the time for 3 weeks and was hospitalised for 2 nights with high fever needing IV drugs but no ventilation. He feels fine physically but is experiencing brain fog and forgetfulness which is really not like him at all - he's missing zoom calls, leaving phone in there office etc forgetting to get off the train and he's now worried. Anyone else experienced this since having Covid?.

Hi myself and my husband had a mild dose of covid in January, fever, fatigue, headaches, aching all over etc.
I still feel rubbish and I have brain fog and keep dropping things which is unlike me!
Neither of us have our sense of smell back and DH only has about 70% of his taste back.

Yes, I had COVID last April. Physically I’m ok, although I do drop things. I am definitely cognitively impaired. I can’t do word puzzles I used to do easily, I forget appointments and sometimes struggle to find words.

Yes I am the same. I have no short term memory.
