That's right, I did have both (I think by IV) in the ICU back in September of 2021. So who knows, maybe they were involved. On the other hand I haven't heard that either of those medications can cause Covid brain fog (which is essentially a debilitating forgetfulness/dementia that also isn't permanent), or months of constant exhaustion, both of which I experienced at the same time. Oh well. Anyway, I'm glad my hair is growing back and I'm just about done with the other symptoms too. And I didn't die or get permanent lung damage from pneumonia which is nice too.Glad your hair is coming back...so it's interesting that both strong antibiotics and steroids can cause hair loss. Almost certainly you got both of those during your hospital treatment. This is what makes long covid and it's treatment so elusive and hard to treat.
Earlier this month I did my taxes all by myself (with Turbo-Tax) and what a relief that was! For months I have been so worried that the brain fog would make that impossible for me.
