A student at the University of Manchester had his "life ruined" after long Covid left him permanently disabled and forced to drop out of medical school.
Dylan Kelly, 25, who studied chemistry, was an avid footballer, swimmer and gym goer before catching coronavirus in February 2020. He had just been accepted to study medicine at Queen's University Belfast and was hoping to become a doctor once he had finished.
Dylan's Covid cleared but his brain fog and fatigue persisted, so doctors diagnosed him with long Covid in May 2020, and chronic fatigue syndrome in August 2020. His long Covid caused the chronic fatigue syndrome, brain fog that makes it difficult to even understand speech, a debilitating lack of energy, nerve pain, and migraines.
