Summary
Tundra 35515 contracted COVID in 2020 and was still ill with long COVID in June 2024, reporting severe insomnia, cognitive deficits, executive dysfunction and fatigue. During the first 13 weeks they were on bedrest and slept only 3–5 hours a week. In July 2023 they attempted suicide after feeling dismissed by doctors and were found unresponsive. Pepcid and Allegra lessened symptoms somewhat, and Adderall helped focus and fatigue, but they said the illness had not improved overall.
