Summary
A 43-year-old man with long COVID was, 15 months in, back to working full time after barely being able to walk for 10 minutes. He took vitamins, minerals, a mushroom complex and a beta blocker, said herbs and adaptogens worsened his symptoms and that paracetamol sometimes helped. He still had joint inflammation and reflux, and a COVID reinfection two weeks before his latest post brought flare-ups.
