Loss of taste and smell so very hard to bear
Post-exertional malaise so much despair
We can work around these central twelve
Still, we need more research to help us well

Having just lost my sense of smell with COVID, I’m starting to understand the difference between smell and taste. It’s getting old pretty fast though. #covidsymptoms

Sorry about the lack of #Covid19Cymru stats today. As I tweeted earlier:
After ~5 weeks.
Cough: gone (more or less)
Pains: gone (completely, since yesterday)
Breathing: still so-so
Appetite: gone too. That's strange
And now my body decides it's had enough and needs a rest - my first real fatigue. As if it's saying "I fought it off, now I need a break".
Normal?
