Hi,
I am now starting my 6mo of post covid coughing. I have seen my physician 3-4 times and went to Urgent care twice. Nobody is concentrating on the issue in my lungs. They all want to blame it on sinus drainage. Quality of life is going down hill. Why is nobody listening? 8

@gr70, how are you doing today? Have you tried to be seen at a specialty Post COVID Care Clinic?

I can offer three answers:
a. They don’t care
b. They don’t know and are guessing
c. a and b
I’ve gone in to the doctor with very real concerns and been rewarded with diagnoses of hypochondriasis or anxiety(which I do have).
If you went into the ER would you be able to see a pulmonologist? Otherwise, can MAYO recommend a post Covid clinic near you?
I know what it is to be treated that way and I sympathize.

I understand!! I get it too!! Until they hear me cough ask them to do a full thyroid test one and 2 !
