Summary
Someone with long COVID struggled through a physically intensive job in late 2022. They credited a Peter McCullough protocol, nattokinase and supplements with clearing brain fog and easing fatigue; by August 2023 they felt 100% better at 60% of peak health. Joint pain and swelling persisted and became excruciating, nearly costing their job. By November 2024 they were working an intense job, had also been getting worse in specific ways, and noted small improvements after starting to look into lymphatic massage.
