I saw a cardiologist 11 months after my infection (Jan 2021 prior to vaccine availability to public). I had a small heart scare at the end of Thanksgiving break where I went to the ER out of precaution and discharged immediately as nothing was wrong, but to me felt like I was going to die.
They were not concerned that COVID had any play in heart health after that many months. Of course, more and more articles and studies are coming out regarding the actual short term & longer term effects accompanied with the unknowns. My story related very closely to these young people who woke up feeling like they are in their 50s/60s and scared they will croak any given moment.
After going through a year of hell, I'm quite optimistic and more aware of my heart health than ever.
This is another article I found last year that really resonated with my story and gave me lots of hope for answers. No doctor was able to give me one, so I had to experiment and try lots of stuff over the last year.
