Summary
Dune 96015 has long COVID, with a burning, overheated neck, swollen lymph nodes, throat and tonsil swelling and post-nasal drip. She took desloratadine 5 mg daily for two years; it helped at first but seemed to slowly stop working. Antibiotics and IV fluids at an emergency visit a year ago left her at her best, and ADHD medication helped a lot with similar symptoms.
