Hello Maryje, I'm just getting ready to make an appointment with my GP. I saw a Long Covid specialist twice over the last 6 months. Got another appointment in January to see the specialist. I had the suggestion to take Colchicine ( off prescription), from the specialist. It seemed to of worked with the inflammation I experienced. The covid symptoms continued however.
Seeing the specialist seems to be mainly information gathering.
Because of my reading, I've been supplementing with various vitamins, minerals, and diet. I have also been isolating, in an attempt heal, and not catch covid, or other viruses, while trying to heal. Things have been promising recently.
The specialist I'm seeing pretty much takes my information on my symptoms, except for the colchicine, ( which helped), everything else has been rudimentary. e.g. suggestions on various rehab methods. RECOVERY website, etc.
I'll tell the specialist the supplements I'm taking, but don't feel telling my GP ,will make any difference. Can you tell me why I should let him know?
My GP and specialist are both part of a large hospital system, near where I live.
