Have tested positive for Covid and as well as the headache, sore throat, snotty nose, aches and pains I have a burning feeling starting from my mouth and continuing into my throat and stomach This is accompanied by bloating, gassy stomach, wind and stomach cramps. I didn't get this last time with covid, just nausea. Wondering if anyone else is experiencing similar ?

Currently having same issues with my stomach. Had every covid symptom but no sore throat. Just dried out sinuses.
Became unwell last Wednesday and have been in bed since. Tested positive on Sunday after 4 negatives .
Day 8 today and can't stand up without being dizzy and weak. Everything I try to eat feels like it cant digest and end up vomiting.
Worst thing I've had in my life 🤢

I’ve been feeling so run down and awful for a couple of days and now today my stomach is constantly churning and grumbling and so uncomfortable - I haven’t tested as I don’t have any tests but it’s such a weird set of symptoms that I wonder whether it is Covid.

Yes, tested positive for COVID after experiencing the usual symptoms of sore throat, high temp and headache. Then had a really grumbly stomach and loose stools past few days. Didn’t have any gastro symptoms last time. Hoping this eases soon for everyone, it definitely sucks!

Yep. Same here. Started 3 weeks ago with the cold symptoms from hell. Had an entire week off sick from work Then it never got better, I had that achy lungs feeling again and could not smell nor taste the glass of cola I was drinking. Ear blocked, same as the othervtimes I had Covid. This week the fatigue hit me like a tonne of bricks. Two nights ago the worst heartburn pains ever. I was awake all night, from my throat to my tummy was on fire so much that my back seriously hurt in places. I was wriggling all night to ease the pain almost woke hubby up to call for an ambulance but 4am decided to see if by chance we had some gaviscon. I didnt think we would have any as I never suffer with heartburn. But yay we had a few tablets left. Took the max dose and it only just touched the worst of it so I could finally get some sleep. Today I am having a good day. Hopefully it’ll last but it seems to go up and down randomly so will take each day as it comes. Drank a gallon of pineapple juice today which seems to be helping (or it’s a coincidence).
