Doctors say these pandemic side effects are serious problems—and unlikely ‘to go away anytime soon’
In September 2021, I collapsed from exhaustion.
My vision went blurry. Then, my eyelids grew so heavy that I could barely keep them up for milliseconds at a time. Panicked, I stumbled approximately 50 yards toward a nearby friend, and slumped over her shoulders. She guided me to a shady spot under a tree, where I floated in and out of consciousness for about two hours.
As far as I knew, I was a healthy guy in my late 20s with no known risks of major health issues. I chalked it up as a one-off. But over the next few months, at unpredictable moments on random days, I’d hit a wall — going from perfectly fine to lying in the fetal position with a crushing headache, in the snap of a finger.
