Long COVID can cause long-term damage to multiple organs, study finds

waveandwindow · 2019-10-14T00:53:42Z

I have been on long covid for five years and the thing nobody warned me about is the side effects. Some days are fine and some are not and there is no pattern I can find, which makes it hard to plan anything. My pharmacist was more useful than the appointment, and it was a two minute conversation at the counter. There is a point in the afternoon where the effect is gone and the restlessness starts, and that point has moved earlier over five years. I asked for the refusal to be noted in the record and got what I asked for within a week. Not looking for a protocol, just perspective.

Is it normal to feel worse before better? Nobody told me that.

Changing prescriber does not reset anything, and people discover that the hard way.

Following this because I am in the same place and have no idea what to ask at the appointment.

Ten percent cuts, of the current dose not the original. That is the arithmetic that keeps it survivable.

Worth asking what specifically was measured. Pain scores move with mood and function does not.

Sorry for the basic question, but how do you actually start one of these diaries?
