I am still recuperating from being diagnosed with Covid at Mayo ER on January 6, 2024. Excessive phlegm in the back of my throat still prevails.
It was too late to start medication when diagnosed, so I reverted back to supplements taken when experiencing Covid in 2020 BV (Before vaccines).

My holistic MD suggested a room diffuser using eucalyptus and peppermint plant based essential oils. Type of diffuser was not discussed, but one can read customer comments online before purchasing, A diffuser was ordered online from Walmart (One chosen was not a store item). Am looking forward to trying the diffuser, once received and will post results after using it.

Plant based essential oils were ordered online from Target, as product was an “in store” item. I would recommend researching the use of essential oils and receiving a doctor’s authorization before using them.

My current Covid symptoms are milder than when contracted previously in 2020. However, recuperation seems to be much longer. Am almost 80 years old and this recent experience has been quite a challenge after being a Covid “longhauler”.

I have to be very careful with essential oils as I have a cat. A cat's liver absorbs certain essential oils from diffusers and it could be detrimental to them. Thank you for the information. I do find Vicks helps at times (menthol). Praying you have a full recovery. God Bless You!
