COVID long-hauler marks 2 years grappling with 'bewildering array' of agonizing symptoms

"Everything started going haywire" in her body, Jennifer Dornan-Fish said.

Jennifer Dornan-Fish is marking two years grappling with the long-term impacts of COVID-19 on her body.

She said her road to recovery from the virus has been mired in a "bewildering array" of agonizing and debilitating new symptoms -- which gradually emerged after she had already fended off her initial infection.

A couple weeks after testing positive in March 2020, it seemed like Dornan-Fish had made it mostly out of the woods. However, the healthy 46-years-old said she struggled with COVID fatigue and labored breath but avoided hospitalization.

She said she was "convincing myself I was on the mend" and was anxious "to jump back into" her busy life finishing her next book and homeschooling her son. But then, "everything started going haywire."
