A woman I know in her early thirties experienced severe, sudden hair loss in the two weeks she had covid (the original strain). She'd never had hair loss before. It did grow back but it scared her half to death. She's had covid twice now, but not long covid.
- SOLAR_FIELDS 4y agoTack it onto the list of bizarre symptoms I guess. One of my more bizarre ones was Reynaud’s-like symptoms in my feet during the winter. Scared me half to death thinking I was going to lose a toe or something and had to run my feet under a hot bath several times to bring feeling back into my toes. Another one was odd susceptibility to bruising in my feet. I wore some tight shoes one time, the same shoes I had always worn before COVID (some running shoes) and the resultant bruising/swelling made me think I had deep vein thrombosis. In both cases, after my long COVID symptoms mostly went away around 2-6 months after I got COVID, I’ve never had anything like it happen again before or since.
