Extreme fatigue with latest strain?

Tested positive Christmas Day. (Lucky me!) Wasn't as bad as the previous time I had Covid, when I was very 'fluey' - this time it's felt more like a heavy cold, until today when the cold-type symptoms eased but now I feel completely exhausted for no apparent reason. Granted I suffer from chronic fatigue, but normally I'm OK when I'm able to get sufficient rest. I've done next to nothing for days now so I'm guessing this is Covid working its magic - oh joy!

Anyone else finding they're very drained with this latest strain?

It’s horrendous. We couldn’t get out of bed for 5 days, didn’t shower until day 5 or 6, it was awful. Still not right now two weeks on.

Ugh, that sounds awful. Hope you're soon over it!

Same. Felt fine then cold symptoms on Christmas Day (sore throat / cough / abit hot and cold) but battled on day after Boxing Day went to bed and wiped out ever since. Everything’s an effort. Can’t even think about exercise.
