This makes it really prone to have different actual causes subsumed under this. I'm pretty sure I could've been diagnosed with this if I had continued talking to doctors, being sent from one specialist to the next. In the end I figured out what caused my fatigue myself and I'm feeling better than ever. This was way pre-Covid btw.

Does this indicate that the virus itself can spread directly from the nose to the brain via the cells of the olfactory nerve? Wild
Whatever the long-term effects, we'll just have to deal with them. And staying in that nightmare of constant lockdowns, wearing masks everywhere, shying away from people, was not possible, it was causing too many other health concerns. If I live a bit shorter, well too bad. With all the measures we've had we had no quality of life at all (especially for someone living alone like myself).
