Thanks for all the comments. I'll look into the specialist named above.

It's impossible to be sure without checking but I'm putting mold issues far down on the list. The correlation between covid and the drop in fitness is just too compelling.

Ditto on the heart issues. For an unrelated reason I had a cardiologist put a heart monitor on me for a week and give me a stress test. No issues found. I do have high cholesterol so a heart attack is not out of the question but there is zero family history of heart attacks so maybe I can dodge that bullet.

Cheers.

@cometboy Have your doctors discussed "Dysautonomia"? It's refers to a group of disorders affecting the autonomic nervous system which controls automatic body functions like heart rate and blood pressure. Germany has taken the lead on 2 blood tests when individual Long Covid patients reported symptoms, those results were placed on a graph. Numbers in the attached graph indicate individual participants assigned to a given syndrome and/or syndrome intersections. Take a look at the symptoms overlap for ME/CSF, POTS, MCAS, and SFN (#65) as those individuals had ALL the symptoms for 4 diseases; ME/CSF, POTS, MCAS and SFN. If you have ALL symptoms for the 4 diseases and were diagnosed with just one of the symptom groups you reported without focusing on the other symptoms you have, treatments may need adjusting. Germany testing: altered receptor antibodies, most notably angiotensin II type 1; and, alpha-2B adrenergic receptor antibodies to determine those who are suffering from PACVS. Graphing showed them what to treat.
