I recovered from COVID in May (tested negative around 13 May; I was infected around 20 April). After consulting a doctor and taking medicines, I recovered. In June, I had a chest X ray, and everything was normal. The issue is that, every one to two weeks, I sometimes feel body weakness for a day, and at night my heartbeat becomes a bit fast (on oximeter, it ranges between 69 to 93). I also have trouble sleeping. Please suggest what could be causing this and how I can recover faster.

SpO2 of 69 is abnormal, needs immediate review. Could be post COVID dysautonomia or underlying lung/heart issue. Needs PFT, ECG/ECHO. Also review thyroid and anxiety.

Hi Doctor, my mother (71 years old) has been experiencing a burning sensation throughout her body. Many medicines have been tried but they have not relieved her symptoms. Could this be related to thyroid problems? Can you please explain the symptoms of thyroid disorders?
