Oh my gosh! I have sent your above comments to several of my family/friends because this is my story as well. I am 1.5 years into G.I. madness. 5 G.I. docs later, with a large Amazon box of discarded pharmaceuticals and OTC drugs, I am working with a G.I. doc older and (wiser?) than me. We shall see. I am hopeful but extremely guarded. I now believe my contracting COVID (after 5th vaccine) had a role in my symptoms. So what? I need effective treatment to resume what used to be normalcy (pre age 65.5; I am now 67).

If I were a doctor, I would hope it would weigh heavily on me how much importance people place in us to return quality to their lives. Sadly, I’m of an opinion now that it’s not even a concern.

bkatz43, don't down play Covid. Do not let any dr. down play it either. I can't believe I have been ok with the vaccines and not gotten Covid, but I rarely leave my house. My friend from high school, 65 yrs old, just finished his 11th go round with Covid. He got all the vaccines and reacted badly to most of them. He describes his symptoms and experiences with it, and he has all the symptoms of: ME/CFS, Fibromyalgia, migraines some may be autoimmune disorders, triggered by the Covid/vaccines, plus a lot more. He has aged 10+ years. So, YES, Covid probably plays a huge part in your health. Take care and stay tough with drs. Shelley
