Summary

A long COVID patient described roughly four years of illness after six COVID infections. They said their long COVID and repeated infections only resolved once they left a stressful situation, got inflammation under control and ate a diet that cleared gut mucus for months; crushed raw garlic coincided with a marked improvement. At the time of writing they had gone a year without an infection.

How ill they were on the ME/CFS severity scale, estimated from what they describe at each point, with time counted from when the illness began. Hover or tap a point. The chart starts 4 years after onset: the story doesn’t say how ill they were before that. 2 steps say too little to place on the scale and are only in the table. Dates are when they posted. What the levels mean.
