Summary
After catching covid in 2023 they were ill for months with sore throat, extreme fatigue, wheezing and breathlessness walking a few steps, and their doctor called it long Covid. Taurine, started three months in, left them feeling 90% of their normal energy within two weeks. In early 2024 a leak exposed black mould under their floors; within three days of leaving the house every symptom cleared and nothing had returned a month later.
