I was hospitalised with Covid-19 pneumonia in Jan 2021. This was before I had had any vaccinations. I was generally unwell for a week (loss of smell/taste, then temperature and loss of appetite) before the cough and breathlessness and night sweats started. The breathlessness got worse over two days at which point I was admitted to hospital. I was treated with oxygen and Dexamethasone, which turned things around. I was discharged four days later and recovery at home took a further 10 to 12 weeks. Breathlessness and fatigue took a long time to clear. I was off work 13 weeks in all. It was about nine months before I got back to what is normal for me. Hopefully with the vaccinations I will never be as ill as that again!
