Hi all

Hope you are all doing OK

I have done so well and have dealt so well with health anxiety..even with a bowel cancer scare last year and lots of tests I did so much better.

A week amd a half ago however I started feeling unwell. The whole family has come done with a horrible virus and on top of that, my anemia came back so I've started on my iron tablets.

I had the normal symptoms but now for around 7 days I've had this feeling of not being all day. Not quite dizzy but a feeling of things feeling slightly weird...like I'm lightheaded and nothing seems right. A bit like if I forget to take sertraline and get brain fog type symptoms. I wish I could explain. I spoke to a pharmacist who said it is most likely part of the virus and will go away but someone said its not normal. I just feel like I'm not me now and never will be...I have an interview next week and am worrying I'll still feel like this. Anyone ever had this?

Anyone?

Could it just be a symptoms from the virus as other symptoms have gone? I don't want to keep googling but just keep crying.

My family has been struck down with this horrible virus that is doing the rounds. I had the same symptoms, just feeling weird, a little off with the world. Of course anxiety can make those symptoms much worse. It does go.
