Summary
A Reddit user in r/covidlonghaulers described two years of heart-related long-COVID symptoms, including burning pain from pericarditis and microvascular problems, which they said had worsened. Colchicine for three months did nothing. Ivermectin, taken for about a month by July 2024, helped a little. They planned to try a statin, metformin and an ARB, and noted plasmapheresis was extremely hard to get in the states.

The only thing that seems to be helping (a little) is ivermectin.

Their path
They say too little about how ill they were at each step to draw it on the severity scale, so the steps are listed as they describe them. Dates are when they posted.
