Summary
Bluebell 69716 caught COVID in January 2021 and afterwards had a headache nearly every day, bad enough once or twice a week that they could not get out of bed, plus trouble finding nouns when speaking. In July 2021 a daith piercing was followed by the headaches clearing within two days, and by ten months out their word-finding was improving, though they still struggled a few seconds for a word. Two later headaches they blamed on missed morning coffee.

In July I went for it and got the daith piercing ... Within 2 days my headaches went away. A couple times I have felt like one is coming on but then it will pass.

I have issues with nouns. Everything else speechwise is fine but the nouns sometimes just fall out of my head.
