Greetings, I had a breakthrough case of covid five months ago, all gastrointestinal symptoms. The symptoms still are recurring every few days. No gastrointestinal remedies seem to help: probiotics, prebiotics, Curing Pills, prevacid, all no help. Anyone having any success with gastro symptoms? Thank you!

I'm a 53 year old female
Vagus nerve?
I quit all Pharma, alcohol, and am working on a back to basics lifestyle
Started this a year ago. My inflammation has improved substantially
Lymph drain massage, diet, excersize, sleep, balance, therapy, swimming, yoga, community, work. Prayer
New habits

Same, but mine have been going on for 2 years. Dr thought it was Appendix, removed May 2020. No relief. Removed Gal Bladder Jan 2021. No relief.
The only relief I can find it a strain of marijuana that keeps the nausea at bay.
It is so weird. It is like sometimes I am hungry, but my body is revolted by the thought of food. I have pains in my upper left abdomen. If I do not have 4 to 8 bowels movements per day, it is none for 4 to 5 days.
I AM MISERABLE
@greg1234 my doctors are still working with me but I have been helped by going on a low histamine diet, removing all sugar with the exception of fruit, reduce activity dramatically and I am dairy and gluten free. This helps if I do not walk too much and I mean 2 miles in a day is too much. D
@greg1234 I have been helped by gluten, dairy free, no sugar and a low histamine diet. In addition no real activity.

Welcome, Greg. I moved your question about gastro symptoms post-COVID to this existing discussion that @sieb369 started called "Covid Recovery: How can I manage GI issues?" https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/covid-recovery-and-gi-pain/
I did this so you can connect with Sieb and others talking about GI symptoms like @ineedanswers38 @tschumpers5 @luisa22 and @lauriekh
If you are also dealing with nausea, check out this related discussion:

Greg, what symptoms are you experiencing? Do any foods trigger the issues or help?
