In their words

I’m almost at my 2 year mark and still not back to my normal self.
In context ↗ - At worst: Mild
But if I climb stairs or runs a short distance my heart rate shoots up like crazy.
In context ↗ - Now: Somewhat better
I have improved ALOT though. Doing much better than I was around this time last year.

Summary
A person with long COVID for about two years described chronic nasal inflammation, POTS, back pain, fatigue and exercise intolerance. By March 2025 they said they had improved a lot, though POTS and exercise intolerance remained and they were still not back to normal. They took nattokinase, 4000 FU a day, and NAC, unsure how much either helped.

Their path
How ill they were on the ME/CFS severity scale, estimated from what they describe at each point, with time counted from when the illness began. Hover or tap a point. The chart starts 20 months after onset: the story doesn’t say how ill they were before that. 2 steps say too little to place on the scale and are only in the table. Dates are when they posted. What the levels mean.
