Summary
A Reddit user with long COVID who had a first COVID-19 infection and later suspected diabetes with night urination and leg pain that subsided, then took antibiotics for ongoing post-nasal drip after COVID, which helped but caused a yeast infection and odd tongue reactions. Upping vitamin C helped relieve their symptoms, and intense activity left them exhausted the next day.
