@thedreamingtree I'm so glad a physical therapist helped! My doctor recommended a speech therapist, and she has been the most helpful for me over the past year even though she didn't really have experience with long covid. I've been following a modified concussion protocol to help with brain fog and fatigue (including rest breaks, modifying activities to deal with cognitive and physical fatigue, and helping figure out triggers and patterns of symptoms).

If someone can't find a healthcare professional familiar with long covid, maybe asking about similar established protocols like concussion protocols can help. A year ago I wouldn't have been able to write these comments because of the brain fog, so it has definitely helped.

@bluesky6321 This is very interesting, thank you. The fog/cognitive issues have moved to #1 for me since I was used to multitasking 24/7 before.

Do you mind if I ask what area you live in and what type of place you looked at for speech therapy for this?
