Just wondering if you realize the key to treating long-haul Covid IS to lower inflammation in the body as much as possible? It sounds like you just got an additional diagnosis of "high inflammation", but you have not actually treated the root cause of long haul. An anti-inflammatory diet (no dairy, no sugar, lots of veggies, lean meats), as well as a low histamine diet (very specific foods--you can look this up), works wonders for long haul. It IS treatable and it is curable, though typical doctors don't have that information because they are treating symptoms one by one... Also, taking histamine blockers for a time also works well, so your body can "reset" and "recover" rather than being in an inflamed status all the time. All the best to you!

For me, I actually shot myself in the foot by being on a vegan diet. When I recently modified it and added back some meat and dairy, my long covid began to improve. I've seen that there's some documentation on the web to this effect. Pretty much all I've done for months has been spending hours each day researching this stuff from every angle.

I've now been improving significantly just in the past week after beginning guanfacine and NAC. My cacosmia and brain fog are almost gone. Just to be sure I'm being clear, I've been on this combo for 1 week and 1 day.

As far as the topic at hand, unfortunately, my wife has been almost completely unsupportive and doesn't believe I have long covid, but that I am imagining it. This stuff can break up families.
