COVID symptoms?

Tweet

I would like to ask for your help. COVID finally graced our home with its unique presence a few weeks back. While hubby had milder symptoms, fatigue a bit of general malaise, I was treated to a more robust version - headache, fever, sore throat, cough, no taste for a week. Though many of the symptoms are similar to flu, the way they present are different, at least for me. I call it the 'going down?' phenomena. The whole thing started in my head, then my sinuses, throat (sore and hoarse) then down to the chest (coughing). Then I felt better and figured, ok, I'm now 'initiated'. Until a week ago. The Friday I was off work - felt terrific, got all sorts of things done in a short time. Then Saturday - I was just lethargic and weary. I thought, well, probably overdid it yesterday, I'll feel better tomorrow - Sunday - nope - tired, draggy. I've been working on my flexibility, finding I was having some success when Sunday night, I was so stiff and sore, my exercise regime had to be modified. Monday night, I had to get out of bed a number of times and just walk around, the pain in my hips and legs was very uncomfortable - it kept waking me up. Tuesday night was miserable - I had to take medication just to get back to sleep, and I didn't sleep well at that. Wednesday, I thought I'd have to cancel my classes, I could hardly sit - but then a funny thing happened. The pain that had been worst in my hips and tailbone, went and 'moved down' to my thigh area! Just like the symptoms I had with COVID two weeks earlier! The 'going down?' phenomena. Sure enough, by end of day Wednesday, the pain had moved down, and by Thursday I felt it in my calves. I'm pretty sure it was a resurgence of COVID - this was not ordinary 'stiff and sore' Just wondering if anyone else has experienced these bizarre symptoms and suspected it was an extension of COVID?
