Summary
Writing in May 2022, they said their long COVID was 90% gone. They had halved their caffeine intake and kept working out even though exercise was a nightmare, and reported being almost back to their pre-COVID strength. Quitting caffeine altogether made things worse, so they kept drinking it.
