Summary
The poster had a lifetime of other chronic pain and illnesses before developing a chronic pain condition five years ago, after skin was damaged in surgery. A treatment for that pain caused four months of migraines, and while in the ER for them they caught COVID a second time, after which long COVID and POTS developed. Writing in March 2026, they said they were out of the workforce, had been draining their savings and saw no way to get their life back.
