These are the 12 most common long COVID symptoms identified in a new study

The 12 key symptoms identified in the study were:

Loss of smell or taste

Post-exertional malaise

Chronic cough

Brain fog

Thirst

Palpitations

Chest pain

Fatigue

Dizziness

Gastrointestinal issues

Issues with sexual desire or capacity

Abnormal movements, such as tremors, unintended movements, or rigidity

But those are not the only symptoms that define long COVID, the researchers said. Patients may have one of those symptoms, or many — or others not on the list — and suffer long-term consequences of the coronavirus.

“Sometimes I hear people say, ‘Oh, everybody’s a little tired,’ ” Dr. Leora Horwitz, co-principal investigator for the RECOVER Clinical Science Core at NYU Langone Health, said in the release. “No, there’s something different about people who have long COVID, and that’s important to know.”

I don't have any of these symptoms but I DO have tinnitus.

I'm so glad I never contracted Covid.

Loss of taste? The Trumps must all have it then!

Clickbait. No elevated occurrence found.

[quote] The team didn’t find a statistically significant association that would suggest it’s a risk in the general population.

Another study published in the American Journal of Otolaryngology also found similar proportions of patients to the general population.

All but two of those are common in virtually every somatization disorder under the sun. which doesn't bode well for patients.

I will add: vapors, voices, thoughts of suicide, mediocrity and tenderness to the touch.

Not well for patients but a goldmine for researchers

Is that why everyone is carrying gigantic jugs of water everywhere they go?

My cough lasted two months after I tested negative, but overall it wasn't as bad as I expected and would probably have been much worse without the vaccines.

I’ve had COVID three times (that I know of). First two times were a relatively easy recovery, with only lingering windedness when I climbed stairs or otherwise exerted myself. But the third time knocked me out for months. In fact, nine months later I still feel some lingering effects that come and go episodically. Fatigue, fogginess, lingering cough. It scares me to think what might happen if I get COVID again.

Don't forget the heart attacks! A 30-something coworker of mine is in the hospital from a seizure and heart attack this past weekend. Thin young woman who eats healthy, doesn't smoke, uses her Peloton regularly, no underlying issues. But she had a bad bought of COVID.
