Summary
Hawk 26820 became severely ill with long COVID, with fatigue, brain fog, a racing heart and headaches. Over two years she got back to 50%, crediting a ketogenic diet, DAO enzyme supplements, sunlight and a year of radical rest, with acupuncture helping her headaches. An unplanned pregnancy briefly brought symptoms back, but by 24 weeks she felt better than before COVID and at four years rated herself 90%. Two sessions of an unspecified treatment each caused a major crash.
