Summary

A 19-year-old male college student developed long COVID after severe Covid and a bad concussion at the same time, about nine months before his November 2024 post. He said he was feeling cognitively better, but weight lifting still made his neuro symptoms worse. He asked whether to start with lower weights and build up or push through, and described frustration with his body image. No treatment or further outcome was reported.
