Summary
After a COVID-19 infection in November 2023, they developed daily eye pain, blepharitis and blurred vision, later reporting joint pain, leg and muscle cramps and heart pain. Their blurred vision improved. Alcohol triggered pain flares and a swollen eye. They were unsure whether this was long COVID but called it post covid, and found cannabis generally worsened their pain, though it sometimes helped their nerve pain.

There were times it helped but overall seemed to make things worse when I was high. I also noticed that it increases my heart pain.
