Those who have suffered a new coronavirus infection began to complain en masse: the body does not perceive alcohol and tobacco. Even after a small dose of alcohol, those who have recovered from covid experience severe hangovers that last for several days. Doctors believethat this is an alarming symptom.
Whole communities of users are organized on Facebook to share the atypical consequences of the coronavirus.
Pavel says that he diagnosed the coronavirus while consuming horseradish.
Then one day she stopped smelling, – writes Pavel. – And immediately a crazy thought came to my mind: “I wonder how it is to drink strong, when there is no taste or smell?” And immediately, as I thought, the body almost jumped straight away from the bottle. I was already taken aback. Well, I think I’ll get better – and then! ..
The man assumed that after recovery he would continue, but the body “turns away” from alcoholic beverages.
Users say that they are turned away not only from spirits, but also from beer, wine, champagne.
I used to love wine and drank it often. And now I don’t even understand how I could. Now beer is a mineral water with alcohol, all wine is tasteless swill, – writes Vladislava.
But besides the disgust with toxins, people also have aversion to coffee with chocolate. “I can’t even stand the smell of alcohol now, just like coffee, by the way,” says Tatiana. And the Facebook user Anastasia agrees: “After the covid, the very sight of the chocolate causes a persistent gag reflex.”
During the illness, the brain is damaged, this leads to the fact that a person’s reactions change, including the attitude to pleasures, – comments the chairman of the board of the Moscow City Scientific Society of Physicians, Professor Pavel Vorobyov. – Many people describe a decrease in libido, sexual functions. I can’t say about dopamine receptors, it requires checks, but the fact that such symptoms are present in people is a fact.
Vorobiev also notes that some patients suffer from mental changes.
Maxim, who has undergone the coronavirus, says that he stopped smoking: “Three months have passed – he doesn’t pull. That is, I can hold onto a glass, a cigarette, but after a while I start to feel sick. “
There are three known target organs that reflect the most pronounced and lasting consequences of the Covid-19 disease, ” says Alexander Ediger, a specialist in toxicology and pharmacology, a pathologist. – Central nervous system, liver and pancreas. And if the perception of alcohol, coffee, tea, chocolate, cinnamon, cloves has changed, this is a rather serious damage to the nervous system, and in the case of alcohol – also extremely complex lesions of the liver and pancreas.
Ediger believes that this is a very bad sign, which shows that the enzymes of the pancreas and liver stop working. According to the specialist, doctors have to deal with the consequences of covid for a long time.
