Summary
A Reddit user described debilitating light headedness, brain fog, blurry vision, mild headaches and dizziness that began over a year ago, eased after a few months, and stayed away for a year. Three days after gallbladder removal surgery the symptoms returned. Extensive specialist testing had found nothing wrong. They had COVID two or three times but did not think it triggered the symptoms.

If I have pots shouldn’t salt consumption help symptoms though? I’ve never noticed this to help.
