Theirs is what science calls “post Covid syndrome”, currently without explanation and, above all, without effective treatment: Arianna Bossi, 25, from Cassano d’Adda, has had a fever for 7 months after having the coronavirus and have been negative.
After the acute phase of the disease, the thermometer no longer dropped below 37 degrees. It all started last spring, with the loss of taste and smell (never recovered, for now): “I had a high fever, to do the tests it took me three weeks between the bed and the sofa: the serologist said I had developed antibodies ; then the swab gave a negative result and therefore I thought that now I was out of it, “he tells theEcho of Bergamo.
To try to get out of it, Arianna went through a real ordeal consisting of countless controls, blood tests, X-rays. All useless: “The lungs were clean,” he explained to Echo again, “but in June they found an inflammation of the walls of the heart: a pericarditis that, as the cardiologist explained to me, in that period was traced in numbers and percentages, increasing” .
The young woman came to think that the fever was a psychosomatic disorder, due to anxiety or fear, then through the Facebook group “We defeat this covid” she discovered that there are thousands of people in whom the coronavirus has left indelible marks. often also heavy.
Arianna is fortunate to have a medical father, for thirty years head of diabetes at the Treviglio hospital, who followed her day by day. To support her in this odyssey also her maturity as an adult woman, which helps her not to get discouraged and to seek what is always positive in life; Nonetheless.
“In these 25 years of life I have already had the opportunity to fully understand the importance of health when it comes to the people I care about,” he wrote on Instagram at the end of October for his birthday. In the last (almost) 7 months, I also understood how fundamental and absolutely nothing obvious mine is. To carry out the projects that I dream of and modify every year, travel and discover the world and, above all, be able to be close to 100% of my strength to the people I love. “.
“In April I never thought that I would reach my birthday like this again, but I will surely remember it well. I am turning 1/4 of a century and I feel 3/4, there is a curfew at 11 pm and the possibility of celebrating is limited to “Family + 6 people”. The cake will not taste anything, I will not smell the burning smell of the candles but, of course, I will feel all the 37.6º that the thermometer marks. I am in the mountains, it is cold and raining. All this, I was taught to always see the positive side and therefore: I am much wiser than my real age and my physical age, maybe I will learn to go to bed early and technology allows me to see and hear all my friends even if they are distant or I cannot hug them. As for the cake, what can I say. It’s gluten-free so I don’t lose much. The burning stench I’m glad I don’t feel it and the fever makes me warm in this cold weather. Besides, I have to say. I liked the sound of the pious ggia on the tiles, it relaxes me. It will not be a conventional birthday, but I hardly miss a thing. In fact, my immune system is giving me too much. “
