Tell me your weird covid symptoms

[Finallygotme]

Mine is insomnia. I am so very tired (as expected) but I can't sleep.

What other delights have people had?

The day before I tested positive I had really bad lower back pain. I went to bed and couldnt even get up to get a drink. Later that night I tested positive, then the back pain went away and I didnt really have any symptoms at all.

Very red, bloodshot eyes

I have insomnia too. I wo der if it's because I'm doing nothing in the day (I'm usually very active and physically exhausted by bedtime). Also just a weird brain fog feeling and legs that feel like jelly.

DS had nosebleeds. I'm not sure if it was connected but he's never had nosebleeds before and he had 3 when he had Covid. I don't think it was from swabbing either as he barely let me put it up his nose, I could only do his throat. He didn't have cold or sinus problems so it wasn't from blowing his nose either.

My skin started buzzing. Like I was electrified but just a bit. It was very weird and quite annoying. Stopped after one day thankfully.

Also insomnia for me but the majority of mine and DH symptoms have been an upset stomach. Other than that we aren't too bad

I had an ache across my cheekbones, like I'd been laughing too much. Plus lower back pain which until reading this post I hadn't considered could be a symptom. I'm day 2 now and have a barking cough and runny nose and total exhaustion.

Burning eyes like when we have a high temperature.
But I had no fever at all.

Im just starting to recover, still have a stuffy nose and a slight cough but it seems all i can smell is talcum powder

Funny isn't it. My dc says their lower back hurts. My arms feel like they are made of cement.

I had no voice for 3 weeks. Absolutely nothing, not even a hoarse whisper.

Then it came back overnight

Heart palpitations and a husky voice.
I could also smell smoke.

Chicken pox like rash all over chest, scalp and neck/shoulders

Yes insomnia for a couple of nights before sore throat and testing positive

Extreme hunger and craving for meat

Feeling exceptionally cold

'sandy' 'grainy' eyes! weird!

All of the above! And pain in my wrists. Very specific!

Have veered between insomnia and sleeping 12+ hours a night/day.

Cough has only really started since the end of my 10 day isolation, otherwise it was more of a sneezing/aching/sleeping thing.

Conjunctivitis

Buzzing scalp and cheeks. So weird. Eldest DC had same. I had no other symptoms. Also tired but can’t sleep.

Back ache. Also, a horrible taste in the back of my mouth that won't go away even when I brush my teeth!

Crushing fatigue, eating a slice of toast sent me back to bed for the afternoon. Wasn't sleeping though. Everything ached. Heart palpitations, a few. A bit of a sore throat but no fever and no cough really.

Losing my voice.
Abnormally low body temperature.
Dry cracked and bleeding skin on my knuckles.
Stingy eyes.

When I was starting to recover my sense of smell after ClassicCovid, everywhere I went I could smell a smell like someone had just done a really awful fart. The grim fart smell was there for a week. Horrible.

Hmm. Now I wonder if the wierd wrist pain I had the other day was that? Get well soon everyone.

Crazy itching which isn't relieved by antihistamines.

Mad dreams! They are like films. I’m absolutely loving this part of it. My daughter is having them too so it isn’t just me.

Also back pain, but it’s like a big square shape at my lower back aches, it’s not my actual bones if that makes sense.
