I thought I had avoided the dreaded Covid-19 until a month or two back when I developed a hacking cough that lasted for 4 - 5 days and I felt a bit off colour. A Lateral flow test was positive so I kept my head down for a week or so. After 7 days I was testing -ve every day for 3 days so I considered myself safe to venture out (masked of course). I didn't get a proper professional test as to do so would have meant taking a bus into town thus putting a bus full of people at risk!

It was all over comfortably within a week except that I experienced what I believe was the dreaded brain fog quite noticeably. For example: I'd be looking at the computer and thinking "I need to create a Word document". It would then take me anything up to 30 seconds to figure out how to do that. That sort of fogginess!!! (I used to be a computer programmer so creating a Word document is not alien to me at all).

Thankfully, my full faculties seem to have returned to me but it was getting rather scary for a while!

Has anyone experienced similar symptoms?
