When Erica Taylor got COVID-19, her brain seemed to shut off completely.
“I couldn’t think. Suddenly I couldn’t hold onto any thoughts,” she said, adding “I didn’t know who I was, where I was. I don’t know how long I was like that.”
At the time, she was 31 years old and showing the usual first signs of infection, dry cough and nausea.
What ended up happening was far from typical. She started suffering from debilitating neurological symptoms that have now taken over her life. Her doctors don’t know why.
