Summary
Breeze 51762 caught COVID before vaccination and was hospitalised for a few days, then had long COVID with new daily migraines for 1.5 years. A second COVID infection cleared the illness almost completely within a week. Vitamin D3 and B vitamins helped as a starting point, and flare-ups with allergies or colds eased over time; their legs went numb.

I have had to almost completely give up sugar. Sugars drive inflammation, which I’ve found worsens my symptoms.
In context ↗ - statins · Worse
They made my legs numb.
In context ↗ - D-3 · Helped
taking D-3 and b2,b6,b12 helped a lot as a starting point

Anti inflammatories are also good (one baby aspirin every day, don’t miss a day)
In context ↗ - vyvanse · Not said
I take vyvanse (similar to adderall XR)

Took me a couple months of being constantly tired for me to realize that vitamin C (its acidity) effectively neutralizes my ADHD meds
