Summary
The person with long COVID reported extreme fatigue and said nitric oxide-boosting supplements helped tremendously; a holistic friend told them to increase nitric oxide and an herbalist recommended drops, and they felt much better than a week earlier. They also had vertigo for three solid months, which an ENT's Epley maneuver resolved. They credited the supplements for the fatigue improvement.
