Summary
A Reddit user in a long COVID forum described dysautonomia, tachycardia, sleep problems and cognitive issues. They reported that ivermectin made a night-and-day difference, with about 80% of symptoms gone, and they tapered to 24 mg daily as a maintenance dose. They also named peptides, NAC and BPC-157 among the most helpful, and said thymosin alpha 1 had no lasting effect but helped during flares or infections.

How ill they were on the ME/CFS severity scale, estimated from what they describe at each point, in the order they describe; they don’t give enough times to place each step. Hover or tap a point. 1 step says too little to place on the scale and is only in the table. Dates are when they posted. What the levels mean.
