Summary

A Reddit user in a long COVID community said they were probably a test subject in a study of lidocaine and had used it for more than two years. They said their symptoms had certainly improved since starting, but could not tell whether the treatment, natural recovery or pacing was responsible, and gave no level of function or overall outcome.

Their words about each treatment
  • lidocaïne · Not saidI have been using lidocaïne for more than 2 years now. Since I've started, my symptoms have certainly improved but it is impossible to say if that is because of the treatment or if it was just natural recovery or other things like pacing. In context ↗
