Summary

A 26-year-old woman in Denver developed long COVID after a first infection in late December 2021, days after a Moderna booster. She was left with constant sinus pressure, severe migraines with visual auras, distorted smells, dizziness and fatigue, all worse with barometric pressure changes. A November 2022 reinfection made things a bit worse. Flonase and levocetirizine gave only small improvements by her May 2023 post.
