Summary

This user had long COVID for about three months and in late September 2024 said they had felt better for only a week. They credited an anti-inflammatory routine: 1:1 THC/CBD tinctures for pain and anxiety, CBDA, Claritin, Zyrtec and Allegra divided up day and night, aspirin or natural salacin for a month, and turmeric, quercetin, fish oil, CoQ10 and zinc gummies. Claritin seemed to help soon after starting. In November 2024 they still used lab-tested full-flower CBD.
