If you had reasonably bad symptoms, but were not hospitalised how long until you felt yourself again please?

[DoubleShotEspresso]

Am currently on extended isolation due to continuing symptoms, I am double jabbed, but never felt so utterly lifeless and just generally low.

I am very much the sort of person normally with the ability to power through most sickness but this has floored me for almost two weeks now. I was last in the household to go down with this, but am not yet ale to see any end in sight, feeling hopelessly useless right now.

If you had Covid-how long did it take you to feel at all back on par again? I am particularly interested to hear about losing the awful wobbly/headache/nauseous feeling and restoring normal energy levels.

Any tips also welcome though we are of course doing all the obvious/recommended stuff!

Clearly. How very clever of you.

Took about 5-6 weeks for myself and DP to get back to any resemblance of normality and being able to do things without feeling weak and tired. 10 months on and still haven't got my sense of taste or smell back. Very annoying now
Hope you feel better soon op x

Goodness thank-you I am genuinely shocked at quite how knocked out we have been, but see from other responses just how typical this seems to be in terms of symptoms and recovery. I haven't smelt or tasted anything for days now, am finding it very disconcerting, can only imagine after ten months how irritating this must be. Hope you continue to recover well. Thank-you x
