Summary
Fell ill with COVID in November 2020 and was left with long COVID: a more sensitive stomach and severe nausea and vomiting episodes every few weeks in early 2023. Zofran did not help, while medical marijuana did. In mid-2023 they moved from high-altitude Colorado to the Sacramento area, where their breathing and oxygen levels improved, and said they had been feeling better and hoped to keep healing.

Zofran hasn't been helping unfortunately.
