Free text: Just noticed light rash on forearms, like a heat rash, which I get when my body is fighting a virus, but its not on my torso so its mild. Weak, fuzzy on my left leg, arm and side of head, like its asleep. Twitch in right bicep that didnt want to go away. Little dizzy, anxious. I drink some every night, but was busy till 10pm, and then drank my usual in a shorter period of time, not spread out over 6-7 hours. Had to lay down at noon, heart was racing, anxious, mild nausea, and slept for an hour. Felt a little better, but the coolness on my left side, like an extremity is getting blood after falling asleep is still there. Still feel weak, a little shaky. Taking it easy now.

Each entry is dated by the survey it was written in (the CDC re-sent the releases with survey dates in 2025); click a date to see that survey response. The CDC cut some text off at about 250 characters: symptoms in every release, and the other two fields in releases 9-12. Those entries are marked "cut off by CDC".
