Summary

Quail 69172 had long COVID with a POTS and CFS subtype and longstanding neuropathic pain. In December 2023 they had bilateral stellate ganglion blocks, which gave no relief of long COVID symptoms; the neuropathic pain disappeared and had not returned by January 2025. They travelled about 80 miles for the blocks and qualified for financial assistance.
