Summary
A Reddit user with long COVID said their gut was calming down, but in December 2025 wrote they were still not recovered and in a lot of pain, though they had been worse before. They described severe OT, whole-body vibration and sleepless stretches of three to five days, and said a medication tried around 2022 made their symptoms much worse. They reported acute pancreatitis after a second infection and RSV in 2022.

They say too little about how ill they were at each step to draw it on the severity scale, so the steps are listed as they describe them. Dates are when they posted.
