Summary
Lynx 69453, a 20-year-old man, developed long COVID after an unvaccinated infection in February 2022. He had constant chest and back pain and reflux for four months, could not work or study normally, and had suicidal thoughts; pain eased after about five months and by ten months he rated himself 95% recovered and was exercising. A bivalent Pfizer vaccine in January 2023 caused intense chest pain for a day, then improved over the next few days and he felt well again.
