Through all the Covid and long Covid, based on CT scans, exrays, and pulmonary function testing, there is no lung damage. There is no opaque presentation, ground glass, or scar tissue.
But, I contract bronchitis fairly regularly, am unable to do any physical work, no exercise, and no walking of aubstance. All these things I try make everything worse. A link to PEM on this thread explained that for me. Thanks to all which spoke about that issue.
Back to bronchitis and lung function.
I have had long covid many times since Dec 12, 2020. The regimen my PC doc, my wife, and I have determed the best is:
1) recognize the overall symptom quickly (fatigue, sleepy, possible feaver from Covid, flu, RSV, or other respiratory virus),
2) begin puff of albuterol and budesimide, repeating albiterol each 4 to 6 hours and budesimide each 12 hours,
3) get rapid tests of all other viruses, get blood sample for Sars CoV-2 antibody test (only 100% fool proof way to determine Covid negative or positive for having or had ashort time prior to blood test,
4) begin all other plant source treatments for positive identified pathogens. I am allergic to many medications, so tamiflu or like, cause issues and/or fail.
The plant phytochems in the plant itself or in supplement form (available to absorb) are most of my solutions outside of prednisone, and
5) get on azithromycin, a very broad spectrum antobiotic with high efficacy on: a) rwpiratory bacteria (specifically pneumonicaucal), b) mycoplasma (cause flu-like symptoms), and non respiratory bacteria.
The faster one attacks, the faster the minimizing or preventing other infections and symptoms..
I also have similar issues and need to begin items 1-5 with: high pollen count, dusty conditions,

do you have the bronchitis? I get tonsillitis with mine it seems like almost monthly and I’ve been having long Covid since September October 2021 and luckily for me I have a great provider and the first couple times I’ve had to come into the office, but since then she just prescribes my antibiotic and eyedrop, because for some reason along with the tonsillitis, I get a eye infection in my right eye and we go from there
