@ericy210 This something I’ve not heard of, but that doesn’t mean anything. You’ve read that it could be an autoimmune condition—did the reading say anymore about pigmentation? Have you asked those operating the long covid programs?
I did some research and didn’t come up with anything specific, but I thought you might check the Infectious Disease Support group and the Skin Health Support Group.
Did the doctor give you any idea of what they think it might be?

Thank you. Yes, autoimmune can trigger the spontaneous pigmentation, which is includes minor blood vessel bursts.
I see my long Covid neurologist in about three weeks and do a battery of tests at UIC in July.
I had a full CBC done but all looked good. More intensive blood work done within the programs shows cytokine imbalance, which makes for weird inflammation, unfiltered anger, difficulty speaking etc. I’ll check those groups out. Here’s one of the sites
