Summary
Writing in a long-COVID forum in July 2022, Fox 13568 reported fatigue that vitamin C IVs of at least 20 g reduced considerably. They said the infusions caused temporary low-blood-sugar side effects that eating carbs could partially mitigate, and that they felt better after the IV than before. They advised eating beforehand and starting at a low dose.
