Summary

A Reddit user in r/Longhaulers and r/cfs wrote about long COVID with brain fog that worsened after exercise and symptoms that shifted with lying down or standing. In April 2021 they felt slightly better for no clear reason, and in mid-June 2021, after a second COVID vaccine dose, they said it had helped them. Nothing was said about how long they had been ill or how limited they were, and no other treatments or costs were reported.
