Ilona Drew, 37, had Covid-19 for the first time in January, but at the time, she didn\u2019t experience anything out of the ordinary: achiness, a sore throat, fatigue.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It wasn\u2019t until later, after testing negative, that she noticed things in her body going awry. The brain fog was bad enough; in February, she also began experiencing bad dizzy spells.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThat was a problem I couldn\u2019t live with,\u201d says Drew, who lives in Boston. Yet even after multiple screenings, her doctors couldn\u2019t find anything amiss.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

That\u2019s when Drew turned to the <\/span>Brigham and Women\u2019s Covid Recovery Center<\/span><\/a>. It\u2019s one of several dozen programs across the country formed specifically for treating suspected cases of long Covid. Demand for this kind of help is overwhelming. Drew, who registered for help this summer, is currently on the waitlist.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Nearly <\/span>1 in 5 American adults<\/span><\/a> who have been diagnosed with Covid-19 continue to grapple with long Covid. Last month, surveys suggested that this seemingly chronic condition is keeping up to <\/span>4 million people out of work<\/span><\/a>. \u201cLong-haulers” describe <\/span>lingering Covid symptoms<\/span><\/a>, like fatigue, shortness of breath and cognitive dysfunction, or develop new ones. These symptoms last at least 12 weeks after a patient\u2019s initial infection and can\u2019t be explained by another diagnosis.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While research has identified signs and symptoms of long Covid, experts still aren\u2019t completely sure why some people<\/a> develop it and others don\u2019t. <\/span>Flurries of studies<\/span><\/a> have floated different theories. Some say \u201cmicroclots\u201d in the blood might be at fault. Others blame lingering fragments of the virus. One paper noted type 2 diabetes as a significant risk factor.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Figuring out whether you\u2019ve got long Covid or an unrelated illness or condition requires paying close attention to patterns in your symptoms. <\/span>Dr. Priya Duggal<\/span><\/a> is an<\/span> epidemiologist at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health<\/span> who studies the condition. She says patients should ask themselves, \u201cAre these symptoms new? Or did I experience them in some form before catching Covid?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

As Covid variants evolve and spread, the percentage of people who develop long Covid may also shift. Right now, experts predict <\/span>up to 5 percent<\/span><\/a> of these patients will have trouble functioning in their daily lives. Here\u2019s what to know about the condition \u2014 and when and how you should seek help.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

What are the typical symptoms of long Covid?<\/h3>\n

Long Covid<\/span><\/a> symptoms are unpredictable, and can last for weeks or years. Even patients without preexisting conditions can lose functionality fast.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe have people who are young, who didn\u2019t seem to have any symptoms associated with disease of any sort before getting Covid,\u201d Duggal says. \u201cNow, all of a sudden, they can\u2019t walk their dog or walk around their neighborhood for a quarter of a mile.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Symptoms vary widely. Many long Covid patients experience extreme fatigue. <\/span>Brain fog, or fuzzy thinking, and sleep disturbances, such as trouble falling or staying asleep, are also commonly reported. <\/span>Some patients experience a persistent low-grade fever, cough, chest pain, headaches, tingling, change in smell or taste, depression and anxiety, joint and muscle pain, ringing in the ears or rashes.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

How can you get a long Covid diagnosis?<\/h3>\n

Most people seek care for symptoms resembling long Covid <\/span>with a visit to their primary care doctor<\/span> around eight weeks after their initial infection, says <\/span>Duggal.<\/span><\/p>\n

Your doctor will go over your medical history and ask about your Covid-19 infection, current symptoms and how long you\u2019ve had them. You may need lab work, like an X-ray of the lungs, or blood work to check your thyroid or other organs. Your provider might also refer you to a specialist to rule out any other issues.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Drew\u2019s PCP first referred her to an <\/span>optometrist<\/span>\u00a0<\/b>to rule out an optical migraine. She also saw a cardiologist, who thought her symptoms might be connected to a malfunctioning nervous system. When these leads didn\u2019t pan out, her primary care doctor referred her to the <\/span>closest long Covid clinic<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

What happens at one of these clinics?<\/h3>\n

Long Covid clinics are new, multidisciplinary care centers that develop individualized treatment plans for people struggling with long Covid symptoms. Most have specialists, such as neurologists, cardiologists or pulmonologists, who are well-versed in treating long Covid symptoms. These centers typically require a referral from a patient\u2019s primary care doctor and proof of a prior Covid-19 infection, either through an antigen or blood test. Many have <\/span>long waitlists<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

How are medical providers treating long Covid?<\/h3>\n

Since there isn\u2019t yet a consensus on why some people develop long Covid, treatment depends on each individual\u2019s symptoms. For example, patients with insomnia might be directed to modify their sleep routine, try melatonin or another sleep supplement, or enroll in a sleep study.<\/span><\/p>\n

Though Drew is still waiting on treatment for her dizziness and fatigue, she\u2019s been given a list of lifestyle modifications to try to ease her symptoms, which the Brigham and Women\u2019s clinic\u00a0 suggested could be linked to <\/span>dysautonomia(a misfiring autonomic nervous system). She\u2019s been advised to drink plenty of water, add salt to her diet and ensure she\u2019s getting enough sleep.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe complicated part is that there isn\u2019t a cure-all,\u201d says <\/span>Duggal. \u201cYou have to <\/span>treat the symptoms that are present.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

What\u2019s the prognosis for long-haulers?<\/h3>\n

While some people recover from long Covid after just a few weeks or months, other long-haulers\u2019 symptoms have lingered for years. Drew says the long Covid clinic coordinator told her that many people feel better at around nine months to a year after their initial infection.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSome are going to get better,\u201d says Duggal. \u201cBut we still don\u2019t know yet what symptoms are resolvable and which ones are not.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

That may sound scary, but experts aren\u2019t just waiting around for a resolution. \u201cI\u2019d hope that with more studies, data will emerge that can help us identify those at a clear risk for developing long Covid,\u201d Duggal says.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
