    I had symptoms similar to yours after Covid. In March my neurologist recommended cranial surgery and shunt implant. The diagnosis was Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus. I've nicknamed it "great lakes on the brain." Well, the surgery worked immediately, fluid drained and my gait straightened right out. I'm hiking and I've joined a lawn bowling club. I'm 77 years old. I have no idea if my story has any bearing on your condition of course, but it sounds like we've been equally annoyed and inconvenienced by these symptoms. Good luck to you!

      Hi! I’m so glad to hear from you. It always helps to speak to someone who understands the issues. I’m glad the surgery worked for you! That’s amazing. Isn’t it amazing what havoc Covid reeked on the world? Most people don’t have any idea of all of the weird issues it can cause. Just talking to you has been helpful. Have a great rest of your day!

      Oh wow… I’m so sorry you had to go through that. I’m “lucky” in that I had Omicron. I’m unlucky in that I ended up with Long Covid which has altered my life. I try to be as positive as I can and my chief tool has been to learn to pace myself, but it’s hard. I do things now and can pretty much expect that I’ll spend a few days unable to do much. I can’t do what I could do before in general. I’m always having to make decisions about what I can do and if it would be good for me to do it. The PME is real. My neurologist thinks that Covid made parts of my brain swell so I’m just stuck with some of this. Wishing you all the best too!

    That is frightening, I feel for you.
    My partner and I had Covid last Oct (10 months ago). It affected our legs. It was both legs equally. I had to walk very small gait and slowly for several weeks otherwise I had awful lactic acid simply from taking a couple of normal gait, and normal speed steps! We couldn't turn on our feet? Something happened to our feet they suddenly became decondiriunes and my leg joints weak overnight. Thankfully I found some physio on UA-cam that were for leg claudication (I felt like that was our problem?) and quite quickly the strength returned. But it did take weeks for the lactic acid to stop. We had spasms, tightness, lumps; stabbing pain etc. We now take nattokinase in case it had anything to do with microclots. My partner still suffers with his legs though and mine aren't 100%.
    I still have one sided (left) hissing tinnitus. No hearing loss on test. Mu partner only recently started having pulsatile tinnitus and today had a heart ultrasound, awaiting results.
    A couple of weeks after covid I had speech issues. But very minor but like I've never had before in my life, passed after 1-2 weeks.
    Watched lots of long covid webinars and what resonated with me is "concussion". Apparently a bad viral infection can cause concussion. (Brain damage). My partner developed sound sensitivity it's better now. I've heard that covid can cause blood vessel inflammation. Lots of studies on that. I've been following Raelan Agle's UA-cam channel she has lots of interviews with people who recovered from chronic fatigue/ME/Long Covid.
    I hope you've been cleared do strokes/mini strokes.
    Hope you make a full recovery.

      How interesting. I didn’t know that! Someone was telling me that these symptoms are also part of Long Covid. It’s the “gift that keeps giving.” (Ironic statement).

      Hi! Here' the good news about that table. I almost never use that room - it's our formal living room and the only time it is used is when we have company. When company comes, I always sit in the chairs that are across from the couch so I don't get by the glass table. It was highly unusual for me to lie down on the couch. I mainly hang out in my bedroom in my recliner. Other than that, occasionally I go in the living room to swap out the decor and my family helps me clean. So I'm okay. I truly, truly appreciate your concern and support. But no... I'm not better. I just got a diagnosis which I need to sit on a bit (and work it through in my mind) before I make a video about what I've learned. But I will, so it will be coming.

    I found your story very interesting. Thanks for sharing. I never had covid but just over two years ago I had my 1st covid jab and a few weeks later ended up requiring a walking aid as my right leg felt like it had developed a mind of its own and still feels semi paralysed. Been to numerous doctors and had several mris, lumber puncture blood tests etc. but still no definite diagnosis while my balance problems steadily get worse. The neurologists I have seen say it couldn't be the vaccine even though they don't know what it is. I find this statement rather odd. I was perfectly well walking 7000 steps a day until I had this jab.

    Same symptoms I have on my right side. Mine is in remission now. Covid is autoimmune. And related to POTS. Sunlight, watch night time histamine, night gut health. Also vitamine c foods, potassium. Cold ease as daily vitamin. The sound of crickets might help ear ringing. Don't get cold or sick. Consult Doctor.

      I’m so sorry to hear that! Covid did so much damage to so many people. Most people haven’t even heard of Long Covid. I always tell them that they know a number of people with Long Covid - I can guarantee it. They just don’t know who they are because we so often kind of disappear because we can’t do what we used to. A lot of older people retire early, as I had to do. It’s a strange thing that happened to us. Thanks so much for saying hi!

      I filmed this in August. I have some trouble off and on. A couple of weeks ago, I got out of the car and I kept walking sideways into it. Gary had to get me a shopping cart to lean on so I could get around without falling over. And then the next day it didn’t happen, but there is usually some left-side weakness going on. I’m getting so used to it that I don’t notice unless I start running into things. My neurologist says that it is caused by some Covid brain damage but it shouldn’t get worse. As long as it doesn’t, I can live with it. Now you know, watch my Home videos and you’ll see I’ve developed quite an old lady waddle lately. I’m pretty sure that is me compensating. I wish I could run into the video and say, “For heavens sake, stand up straight!” But hey - as least I’m moving again. It’s great to be doing something instead of just thinking about doing something.

I just barely got the results. There is a diagnosis. I need to sit with it a few days and absorb what it means before I film the update. It will come out next Monday.
