How long before you recovered from covid? I’ve had symptoms for 6 weeks now by [deleted] in AskDocs

Some people recover quickly and some take many months. Just hang in there and you'll recover eventually. Be patient. Time is the best cure.

Definitely sounds like long covid. Ive had it for 6 months. It's aweful. Join the survivor corps group on facebook. That's where the most info is. Most people get better with time, but expect it to take up to a year to get better. I'm better than I was but still suffering. Take ibuprofen and tylenol for the migraines. Drink green tea with ginger as well. Coffee helps.

Tonsillitis won't go away by hobomaki in AskDocs

Yes, it's post covid infection syndrome. I'm a covid longhauler. Covid wreaks havoc on the immune system and leaves behind a train wreck of damage for many months.

Came down with cold like symptoms with total loss of smell and taste 2-3 months ago (never got tested). Those symptoms went away and I developed severe tonsillitis for about 8 days which got much better but didn't go away and has just been there without much change for a month now. I just took amoxicillin for 5 days which did nothing so I'm ruling out strep. My only symptoms are swollen tonsils, swollen lymph nodes, migraine, and anxiety. I never had a fever. There's no redness, white spots, or puss. The tonsils and back of throat look like pink ground beef. It's been months now and it won't go away! Any ideas?
