That's how it feels... I have had illness after illness for the last 9 months. Mixture of things from viruses to currently a gastro bug which came out of nowhere. They only go if I stop doing everything for a few days which is just deadly in terms of trying to work. My dcs have really noticed - mum you've been ill sooo much...

I am overweight, but reducing. I've cut out most alcohol. I eat reasonably healthily.

I've had Covid twice which I do wonder is a contributory factor.

Take a probiotic, multivitamin daily.

I prob need to get some bloods done but getting a gp appt is currently extremely hard.

Any advice would be much appreciated!

have you been to the gp?
sounds like you need a blood teat to find if you are deficient in some nutrients.

yes, covid could be a factor. plus ifyoy havd been very careful for a while the body has to re-learn how to deal with bugs. sortif like 'fresher's flu'.
