Symptoms also include headaches, muscle aches, brain fog, heart palpitations, and altered smell and taste, all of which can impact your emotional wellbeing.

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms and think it could be Long Covid, you should make an appointment to see your GP. They can carry out some tests and refer you to the Long Covid clinic.
