That was me when I had covid - which was last year when vaccination was starting to ramp up for adults (April/May). I had a week of my first shot under my belt...and I got covid. I still don't completely have my smell back. I will get whiffs of a smell, then it will be gone. Like last night - dh was eating toast with peanut butter toast and I could smell that for about 5 seconds and I commented how good that smelled, then it was gone. I hope you start to feel better. The exhaustion and strength does come back, it just takes a little time. I hope you start to feel better soon.I haven’t tasted or smelled anything in over a week and am praying my nerves recover - it is very discombobulating. I’m like a phone constantly trying but never quite successfully connecting to wifi. My brain knows something is wrong but can’t zone in on it and it’s making me extremely tense and anxious. I can’t smell the trees, laundry. Nada. Everything I eat feels like wet tasteless paper in my mouth
Everyone else had mild symptoms. Not me - fever, severe headache, ongoing fatigue and lethargy, muscle cramps and broken smell and taste
