Thank you so much, @law59 [our "handles" remind me of the early AOL chat room days when almost no one used names!] So vit C gummies better than anything else? NO one of the docs I've seen has recommended anything at all.
Did you have any testing to better understand the central nervous system malfunction for this and related issues? I just read a fascinating article about "Long COVID toe and rashes" https://www.aad.org/public/diseases/a-z/covid-toes I had the toe issue in the beginning - and it periodically returns. It then became an ingrown big toe toenail. I had never in my 70+ years had an ingrown toe or finger nail. The rash - one doctor - who is considered a long COVID specialist - said it was not related to COVID and was lipedema tho' that too has been debunked. The rash that won't go away and the swelling of my leg and foot and two areas of rashes came during COVID in 2023. (Thought first to be lymphedema, a 2 hour ultrasound ruled that out.) It just won't stop and is so uncomfortable.
Central nervous system next I guess. And a PET scan to check to see if this all has brought NHL back - which was in remission but likely triggered by all the rest or so it is supposed.
We are all guessing as are the scaled-back research, aren't we?
Sorry this was longer than intended.
