Summary
Spruce 12587 caught COVID-19 in March 2020 and had post-viral fatigue with a low-grade fever through August. Pneumonia in mid-August cleared with antibiotics, and by March 2021 they reported long-hauler symptoms mostly resolved after acupuncture and IV vitamin therapy. Symptoms returned a couple of months after October 2022; a biopsy found H. pylori and aggressive antibiotics ended the stomach pain and nausea.
