COVID 19: People who have more severe cases of COVID 19 may have residual respiratory symptoms for a prolonged period. The other issue is that this may be creating a sense of anticipatory anxiety in you. Panic or anxiety can cause you to have difficulty breathing. Let your doctor know if this continues.
