COVID and Long COVID has hit me!

My Actifit Blog #1179 | 18 July 2022 |


Two days after my last post, i.e. at the beginning of July, the Corona virus attacked me with a force that still restricts me considerably today. Overnight I got a severe headache, backache, fever and an almost unbearable sore throat.

Sore throat so severe that I could hardly eat or drink. This lasted for a good week. I lost a weight of a more than 3 kg and felt really sick during this time and was glad when I could lie down on the sofa and rest.

Since a good week the crisis is over, the virus test showed a negative result and I can eat and drink again without pain. However, I lost my sense of smell and taste for a few days, which is slowly coming back.

What remains now is the shadow of Long Covid! I feel very tired, get exhausted doing the smallest everyday tasks, and walking or jogging is unthinkable for now. Today I went for a little walk, which ended up being very tiring.

I hope that the shadow of Long Covid will not accompany me for too long.




Zwei Tage nach meinem letzten Post, also Anfang Juli hat mich der Corona Virus mit einer Wucht überfallen, der mich bis heute erheblich einschränkt. Ich bekam über Nacht heftige Kopf- und Rückenschmerzen, Fieber und dazu noch fast unerträgliche Halsschmerzen.

Halsschmerzen, die so stark waren, dass ich kaum essen und trinken konnte. Dies dauerte für gut eine Woche. Ich nahm gut 3 kg an Gewicht ab und fühlte mich in dieser Zeit richtig krank und war froh, wenn ich mich auf dem Sofa hinlegen und ausruhen konnte.

Seit gut einer Woche ist der Spuk vorbei, der Virustest zeigte ein negatives Ergebnis und ich kann wieder ohne Schmerzen essen und trinken. Allerdings habe ich für ein paar Tage meinen Geruchs- und Geschmackssinn verloren, der langsam wieder zurückkommt.

Was nun noch bleibt ist der Schatten von Long Covid! Ich fühle mich sehr müde, werde bei den kleinsten Alltagsaufgaben erschöpft und an Laufen oder Joggen ist nicht zu denken. Heute war ich ein wenig spazieren, was mich letztlich sehr angestrengt hat.

Ich hoffe, dass der Schatten von Long Covid mich nicht allzu lang begleitet.

Oh wow. I was wondering what happened to you all these days. Long covid is no joke and am glad you took lots of rest to shake it off. I am not an expert but I would advise lots of water and fasting to fully get rid of the virus. Thank you for sharing and let everyone take protective measures against covid :}

Thanks a lot, Eric!. Yes, Covid and Long Covid is really not a joke! I thought I could avoid the virus by doing lots of walking and running. I am vaccinated twice. I even know a professional runner, who got the virus and had a hard time recovering from it. But I am positive and will regain my old form!

I am so sorry to hear this @actifit-peter! I know from when my son got it, his wife ended up taking him to an urgent care facility just for Covid! I hope this doesn't stay with you much longer! Fantastic job with your 11797 @actifit steps for the day. Take care and I hope you feel better soon! !LADY

Thanks a lot for your response! I am recovering and since yesterday I indeed feel much better. I am starting with walking and maybe next weekend I am going to do some jogging (short distance). I am vaccinated twice, did a lot of running and walking the last 3 years, I never would have thought that this could happen to me. But, as I learned, noone can be absolutely sure, not to catch the virus.

It does not sound like a lot of fun, for sure! Take it easy and build back up; over doing won't help much, but I know you already know that. Take care; slow and steady wins the race!🤗💜

Sorry to hear about your ailment with Covid. Glad you're recovering now. How did it happened? Were you around people with covid? How you described it is exactly how others felt when they get contracted with it. Covid is indeed terrible and horrible.
You're a strong person. Take care and be well.

Thanks so much for your response. I have no idea where I got the virus. I am a very cautious person, who always wore my masc while shopping and in general I avoided longer contact with people I do not know. I am also vaccinated twice. On the other hand, lots of people in my little village are infected . . . so someone must have passed me on the virus . . .

Ich bin dem Virus selber vor ein paar Wochen verfallen (3-fach geimpft). Nach 2,5 Wochen habe ich wieder mit Sport angefangen und beim ersten Workout habe ich ziemlich kämpfen müssen.

Tja, jetzt kann ich bei diesem Thema auch mitreden. Bei mir war der Verlauf alles andere als mild (2-fach geimpft).
Wünsche dir alles Gute bei deinen Workouts!

Fang nicht zu schnell an! Gönn dir viel Erholung und wenn du trainierst, nur am absolut unteren Niveau. Auf keinen Fall überfordern! Ich drücke die Daumen, dass es schnell besser wird. Ist ein riesen scheiß!
