What can I do

I had a few days where I felt fantastic, no dizziness or headache, no head pressure, I wasn’t shaking and trembling and I thought at last I’ve accepted it and I’m really ok, then I get up at the weekend feeling like OMG what’s wrong with me now. My legs were weak and shaky, my face and head felt numb, I felt sick, and I even had toothache. After the worst day for a long time I got up the next day for work and I felt fine again but I kept thinking about the weekend feelings. I don’t know from one day to the next how I will feel

The fight or flight response tends to stick around for a while especially if you had several anxiety or panic attacks. It takes a toll on our bodies as nearly every sense and nerve is rattled, for me personally it doesn’t turn off like a switch it can last for days or even weeks in some form. Try to focus on the positive days and do things that led up to the good days.

Have you had covid before or recently? I got diagnosed with Long Covid ( yes its really a thing, google it) and had all of the symptoms you are describing.

No, I have to test regularly because I work in a hospital
