COVID victims, how long did fatigue last after other symptoms were gone?

Hi, everyone,

Well, we finally got COVID. Very, very mild, but hubby sleeps all the time now that other symptoms are gone. PCP says "fatigue can persist." Can you give me a sense for what that means?

TIA
LAS

But I've had it twice and the fatigue lasted between one and two weeks.

Got better fast and then the exhaustion came. About 10 days in bed feeling ok but too exausted to get out of bed. I was out of bed a half hr in the morning and a half hr at night just forcing myself to feed my animals and me. I started freaking out about long Covid. I upped Vit B & red meat to give me energy. Then I got way better but had to take long naps for a few months. Now I’m good.
