Long COVID exists for 5+ years: Share what has or not worked for you

DIDN'T WORK - I unsuccessfully tried an antiviral for three weeks. Did nothing at all for me. I tried the nicotine patch and it made me full of anxiety which did not help...even in a low dose. In people who can take it, it can block the ACE receptor which prevents any remaining spike particles from attaching.
DID WORK - Extreme pacing and low dose naltrexone has worked miracles. The keto/low carb diet really improves by joint pain and inflammation as it keeps me off all of the foods I am now allergic to - THANKS COVID! And I can now lose weight again which is a blessing.

@vostie I was on low dose naltrexone for a time but the prescribing physician would not renew, saying it was not intended for extended use. I do think it helped me somewhat. I've tried the keto low carb diet in the past but didn't work well for me. I'm not vegetarian but have never been heavy on animal proteins which is the key to this diet. We're all different!
