Summary

Coast 48393 described long COVID as mild and functional compared with other patients, with longstanding gut issues. They took oil of oregano, which seemed to feel pretty good, and drank red gromwell root and spruce needle teas. They also did an antimicrobial gut cleanse and focused on fiber and good bacteria. By June 2024 they felt better overall; in July they still had mild long COVID but reported continued improvements and daily movement while avoiding exhaustion.
