Summary
Maple 17215 reports long COVID symptoms four months after a first Pfizer dose in 2021, including insomnia, neck stiffness, mast cell activation and GI issues. Taking prednisone made them feel ten times worse. They noted a slight improvement four months in, and in October 2022 credited limiting time spent obsessively researching long COVID online as one of the most helpful things in recovery.
