I have been on long covid for six weeks and the thing nobody warned me about is the tolerance.

The rebound is worse than the original problem for about a fortnight and then it eases.

My pharmacist was more useful than the appointment, and it was a two minute conversation at the counter.

My skin, my sleep and my mood all respond to this, and my appointments only ever ask about the third.

Any suggestions welcome, especially the boring practical ones.

My pharmacist has become my actual doctor and I am at peace with it.

Careful with attribution. You changed the timing, the dose and the season. That is three variables. Tolerance was my main issue with long covid too.

You are not imagining it and you are not being difficult. Document it and take the document in.

Interdose restlessness is distinct from the original symptom and worth naming separately.

Access to mugs should be on the clinical questionnaire.

Changing prescriber does not reset anything, and people discover that the hard way. Currently on long covid myself.

How do you tell the difference between the drug working and just a good week?
