Have you tried this treatment? Stellate Ganglion Block study
Article: Cureus | Stellate Ganglion Block Relieves Long COVID-19 Symptoms in 86% of Patients: A Retrospective Cohort Study | Article
DEFINITIONS:
Stellate Ganglion Block (SGB): a procedure where anesthetic is injected near the stellate ganglion, a group of nerves in the neck, to relieve symptoms such as pain or nerve dysfunction.
SUMMARY:
The study evaluated the use of stellate ganglion block (SGB) in the treatment of long COVID-19 syndrome.
Out of the 41 patients who received SGB, 86% experienced a reduction in their symptoms.
The most frequently reported symptoms were fatigue and brain fog, which showed the highest response to treatment.
My take: (by Amy E - contributor to the newsletter)
This is what I had done and it has been the biggest game-changer out of all the things I’ve tried!

I had this done last October and it helped with brain fog, internal buzzing and having more energy. A game changer.
Best of luck to everyone.
I’m glad it worked for you. I had 7 SGB injections over a period of time and went to have this done to regain my taste and smell. I still don’t have my taste or smell back after almost 4 years now. What the SGB did do for me was finally take my body tremors away. It didn’t do anything else but that for me, which is what I believe they are meant for. Still waiting to regain my taste/smell, which has been awful to live with. Not one doctor has been able to help me with that, but I a m doing my own research and have just joined Dr. Daniel Pompa’s Program.
