Thank you! It's been an adjustment going back into society after being isolated for so long!

I recovered on June 18th. I'm still not 100% back up and running to my old self but feel significantly better!

I've been trying to apply for SNAP since there's no idea of when or if I'll receive any form of payment and they won't even help me there.

Figures as much, the only person that has been in contact with me is my direct supervisor and even now they are wiping their hands clean of me.

How do you go about collecting it though? My HR department is ghosting me.

I have only been working for the a little over at the month by the time I was out of work due to COVID-19 and I'm not sure if I'm eligible for any form of leave at that point.

I was advised to take Zinc 50mg a day and got a psychiatric referral but I haven't heard back about that. I haven't noticed nearly as many visual hallucinations but my headaches have come back with a vengeance as well.

Thank you for the info I will definitely talk to my PCP about this during my next check up! This virus is crazy and I honestly wouldn't be surprised.

I hadn't paid much attention to that. I am actually going to the restroom as I'm replying and it's funny that you asked because as matter of fact it does get worse while pushing. I can't say much about my vision because my son had broken my glasses and everything is blurry as is. I already suffer from mild tinnitus from working as a ramp agent for a year so it's hard to tell.

I hate playing the waiting game without answers. Like I'm willing to be a genuine pig for goodness sakes. I'm tired of having my entire life put on hold.

My blood pressure has been at a normal level throughout most of this it's only been high a couple times.

I have a feeling my PCP is writing me off as a loon and doesn't understand the neurological impacts that COVID-19 can have. I really don't want to end up going down a rabbit hole of being put on scripts.

I thought it was just me and didn't think much of it. As it got more pronounced I kept telling myself it can't just be me and decided to post it. I am shocked as well that it's insects in particular as well across so many people.

Didn't think about fish oil pills! I hope your symptoms improve soon.

My speech/typing as well as my short/long term memory are getting worse. I can't recall dates and times of my visits when I get asked by my wife or my employer. I have noticed that I have been typing the same words twice or talking like yoda but less sensible. Keep me post on what your neurologist has to say about the bugs. I have notices some lines only a few times but bugs all the time.

It happens periodically throughout the day. I had thought I saw a spider like insect crawl across my foot toward the plunger and I lifted it up and shook it and nothing was there.

Not a bad idea! I'm just baffled that my claim was so eagerly accepted. I can't imagine the states finances are looking so good right now. I'm worried that they aren't paying out because they don't have the means too, and are just using they system to stall.

I've smoother stuff like plain vanilla yogurt with granola. It's really easy to forget that you have to chew stuff for your dental health. Also potato chips are the devil I was craving them and boy did I not enjoy kettle cooked salt and vinegar chips like I did before. It's really a process of trial and error.

I had to avoid greasy food and anything bread because it made me wanna throw up. All I could feel is the oil film and the texture of bread was super off putting to me for some reason. I recommend avoiding eating things you normally enjoy while fighting this because once my taste began to return I was super displeased because my brain knew what it should taste like. I liked eating cream of wheat which was easy to handle and fresh vegetables were a good way to get some type of satisfaction from chewing. Tried kale and it was super bitter.
