Mayo Clinic long covid testing revealed my leg muscle issues were result of communication deficit between my small nerve system in legs & my brain. Not detectable with standard Neurologist testing EMG. Covid brain inflammation destroyed normal information pathways. Physical therapy for the legs does not fix, however it can keep important blood flow. The communication with the brain has to develop new routes.

How does the brain develop new routes? Does this happen organically over time even in an 80 year old?
Thank you!!
How is the brain inflammation detected?
Does your degree of walking change/fluctuations?
I was hospilized for a week, sent home barly able to walk and given a walker.
My dignosis was simply ataxia.
Hi. How did they diagnose this? I have leg muscle weakness, soreness, negative muscle biopsy, but inflammation marker elevated.. dizziness, especially turning my head, the fatigue and weakness... Help

I am so sorry. I too have long Covid and though I cannot relate to the leg muscle issues, I have other issues that do not show up in bloodwork, etc., and are chronic.
Praying for you as well. Hugs & Blessings....
