Signs of Cardiac Damage Even in Younger, Nonhospitalized COVID-19 Patients
A series of middle-aged patients followed more than 2 months after diagnosis showed that most had abnormal results on CMR.


“There are more signs that COVID-19 may cause damage to the heart that lasts beyond the acute phase, based on an imaging study conducted at a single center in Germany. Despite the fact that 67% of the patients who volunteered for the study never required hospitalization, 78% had abnormal cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) findings 2 to 3 months after testing positive for the virus.

“These were not the patients that had problems or any cardiac symptoms at all,” lead author Valentina Puntmann, MD, PhD (University Hospital Frankfurt, Germany), told TCTMD, explaining that anyone with a positive COVID-19 test result had been invited to participate through the hospital’s testing clinic. “Quite a few of them did feel shortness of breath but they didn't think it came from the heart, just that they hadn't fully recovered—something was not right.”
 
Chronic Fatigue May Be Long-term Effect of COVID-19


A large number of people who contract the coronavirus don't fully recover in a few weeks, and many of them are experiencing chronic fatigue.
More than a third of those who have tested positive for COVID-19 and have symptoms don't feel like they're back to normal, even weeks later, according to a new CDC report.
"COVID-19 can result in prolonged illness, even among young adults without underlying chronic medical conditions," the CDC COVID-19 Response Team wrote.


Scientists are beginning to study whether the coronavirus may create post-viral issues such as myalgic encephalomyelitis, which is also known as chronic fatigue syndrome. Common symptoms include brain fog, fatigue, pain, immune issues, and malaise after exercise.
 
I signed up for a blood drive next week, so I’ll get an antibody test with that. I don’t expect to test positive for antibodies, but I suppose you never know.
 
“The expectation is this will evolve into the common cold.”

Hopefully, because if it's here to stay and lots of people who get it have long lasting mysterious symptoms, many people could be in for a rough ride long-term.

We need to get to long term 1st. Hell it takes me 6 months to get back to feeling right after a stomach ulcer.
 
Can I just say that Australian type rules for a lockdown would drive me nuts?

If I have things to do that are not school or a structured work environment, I'm still kind of spontaneous with that (like today I wanted to get my school physical done and deposit a check and just decided to randomly get up and leave to go get that done at 11:30ish, didn't need to schedule an appointment to get one at this clinic, hopefully it doesn't backfire that I saw a PA).

I mean I did say that I was going to go late morning, but I decided at about 9:00ish in the morning that I was going to.

Heck, when the weather cools off, the times I exercise might not be exact times either.
 
You would think at one point the US was going to do what Australia did after my workplace gave me papers saying I could travel to work if the time came of shutting the roads down.

I have noticed I’ve had way more heart palpitations after I had it back in May (was asymptomatic) also notice now if I drink any caffeine I get a extremely fast heartbeat, this is after covid, doctors said it was stress but idk

Bad flus always gave me palpitations for weeks... but that's a long lag time. Probably time to get an EKG, see a cardiologist.. Especially at your age.

I had a resting heart rate of 100 at work spiking up to 130 the 2 weeks after I recovered. I thought it was anxiety, It has sense settled, but I wonder now.
 

I seriously doubt my county goes back (even with the families that might have chosen to) and the county that's north of me is already very quickly on the path to ending up virtual.
