Every tiny task felt like climbing a mountain
When people tell you they experience body fatigue with COVID-19, it might be hard to grasp what that really feels like until you get it. Every choice to get up from bed was that – a hard choice. I knew I risked feeling too low on oxygen and falling over every time I so much as got up to make a snack or use the toilet. I would sit in bed, scared, contemplating if it was really worth brushing my teeth that day, knowing how much it would totally knock me out. Yes, I had my husband help me with some things. But he was also sick, and there are some things others can’t do for you – like use the toilet. I dreaded it because I had to sit up for several minutes at a time, which was very hard to do.
