Covid Recovery: Struggling with Balance?

My lack of balance is as a result of what is currently being labeled "deconditioning". After a little research, I would call that fair. I spent nearly 6 weeks in bed in the spring of 2020 with COVID. I've never fully recovered. Lots of balance is definitely part of deconditioning.

I was diagnosed with BPPV in April and I also have a cyst on my pineal gland in my brain. I was perfectly healthy, got covid in August 2021 and health went downhill in April 2022. Not sure if this is long covid or not? But I have chronic fatigue, dizziness, off balance, numb fingers, brain fog and ear ringing

Yes I've had poor balance for 7 months

Yes, and I was diagnosed with a central balance system disorder called PPPD, or persistent perceptual postural dizziness (but even though it has the word “dizziness” in it, like you, that’s not something I experience). They diagnosed it with a test that is called an ENG (Electronystagmography) or VNG (Videonystagmography). I went to an ENT first who referred me to a neurologist for the test.

I had issues myself pre- covid but extremely worse now. Hell, I can't even walk a staight line anymore. People probably think I'm drunk! Lol!

I had the lack of balance problems prior to having Covid (Dec 2021) but it does seem to be more of a challenge since having Covid
