Excellent to hear - in my wife's experience most of her main symptoms did go in the first year, but the tiredness and fog persisted far longer. Its been nearly 3 years now, and she still isn't where she was before in terms of fitness or where she'd like to be, but continues to improve.
Really hope anyone else struggling with long covid sees improvements.
- n1b0m 4y agoLong covid seems to affect women more too. Have there been any studies on why that is?
- ljf 4y agoYes there have been studies, and no it doesn't affect more women than men. It may be that women are more vocal in looking for help and support with the illness. But no studies have actually shown that this affects more women.

Its been nearly 3 years now, and she still isn't where she was before in terms of fitness or where she'd like to be, but continues to improve. That's been my experience too. I've also adjusted my lifestyle to compensate. I try not to do non-necessary activities too many days in a row anymore. Every now and then I get cocky about it and try to "push through" the tiredness/fatigue and I get a rude reminder about why I haven't been doing that.
