from a "mild" COVID case in November, I developed long COVID, with debilitating symptoms that included persistent shortness of breath, heart palpitations, and insomnia.As my symptoms grew worse, I was admitted to the hospital, where I underwent numerous tests. Thankfully, no major organ damage was found — apart from an obstruction in my lungs, which is still being treated.Flashback:

Every morning, I write a list of everything I want to do that day — then check off each task as I do it. I follow a healthy diet, drink lots of water, take my medications and supplements, and attend pulmonary rehab.
