Summary
An Australian Reddit user developed long COVID after a COVID infection in 2022, despite five Pfizer vaccinations. The illness brought cerebral small vessel disease, hydrocephalus, a small stroke, autonomic problems including gastroparesis, hypertension, ectopic heartbeats, cognitive decline, headaches and insomnia. Low-dose naltrexone caused nausea; ivermectin spiked blood pressure. Prucalopride and gut measures helped post-COVID motility.
