It is so hard (impossible?) to be productive without a good night's sleep. I'm sure while you're awake during the night, you're also concerned about the negative health factors of poor sleep. With long Covid, you want to maximize your healing. It's a vicious circle.

Have you considered seeing a doctor who specializes in sleep medicine to evaluate your sleep patterns and get suggestions? What things do you do to help promote good sleep?

Hi Colleen, thanks for the reply. Yes, I've messaged a couple of sleep clinics but I haven't heard back. It's hard to focus on one thing when you may have adhd too. I don't know if its possible to fix the sleep issue by itself, if it's related to long covid. Or if I should try to find a solution for the entire condition
( insomnia, fatigue, inflammation, brain fog , etc ) I keep hoping someone has a simple answer, remadie, Cure..
Because there must be a common thread as to why the virus or vaccine has caused this. I came across your site by accident. You are a renown medical institution and im hoping you have a team specifically focusing on Lc to develop a cure as I feel many people are suffering from this but most don't even know it. I think if you find a way to get the reminance of the virus of of the body or to see what genetic alteration the vaccine has caused including the severe inflammation, you may find a cure.
Have a good evening 🙏 and feel free to contact me anytime.

Regards, Tony
