Summary
Developed long COVID after a COVID-19 infection in 2019, with POTS and MCAS symptoms plus tremors and muscle twitches. The first Pfizer vaccine made it far worse. They say they recovered after 10 months, crediting vitamin D, magnesium and probiotics, and later stopped the supplements. Reinfections with delta and omicron each caused a week-long relapse, but by April 2022 they were completely recovered.
