This explains the lightheadedness I experienced both during and AFTER the illness in spite of a glaring lack of breathing difficulties. Interesting.
I hadn’t experienced anything like it since before I resolved my Thyroid issues (a systemic hormonal imbalance).

Reinforcing my hypothesis to eradicate the virus before pulmonary damage is wrought:
” Millions of cells from the immune system invade the infected lung tissue and cause massive amounts of damage in the process of cleaning out the virus and any infected cells.”
AFAIK a virus can bind to just about ANY tissue. So when you have it in your meninges, you get meningitis. In the brain itself, encephalitis and coma. Obviously it replicates in Pulmonary tissue, I would not doubt for a moment it replicates in renal tissue, loaded with ACE receptors. Which is why people present with decompensation and rapid deterioration from multi organ failure.
