Summary
Ocean 35709, a 31-year-old man in the UK, developed long COVID in mid-2022 with sudden dizziness and nausea, then months of gastrointestinal symptoms and weight loss from about 79 kg to 71 kg. His neurological symptoms cleared within two months and his stool normalised; antibiotics for Helicobacter pylori brought further improvement. By April 2023, ten months in, he had healed with time and was back to normal.
