It is nice to know there are others out there that know how I feel and what it's like feeling like you are suffocating from just lifting your head to check the time in bed. Or sitting in the complete dark and silence for months of a migraine that never stoled. The second I start moving or exude any energy I sweat so much I'm not exaggerating I can make puddles if I stand in one spot and soak through hoody sweaters and even wetting the lining of jacket but what scares me is the extreme pain in my lungs like I've been stabbed in each lung and salt poured into them while I'm trying catch breath but not just out of breath feels like I'm suffocating and need about an hour of laying down after using the bathroom.
What isn't comforting is the refusal of our hospitals in Adirondacks NY to check or even treat anyone that has past addiction, covid and long covid, fungal infections leading to disease, and parasites. And they don't offer referral they won't let you inside if you have a sniffle or walked in the cold so their no touch thermometer can't take temperature. When I had appointment to have lungs checked I mentioned it's symptom of long covid. I had to leave no one exhibiting signs of covid are allowed in. They won't even treat an overdose for most the addicts here. I was one 10 years ago and been discriminated against since. Almost lost my life from refusal to treat an emergency viral infection in my chest wall. Anyway, after I left hospital angry, I emailed doc through health portal explaining symptoms and worried about blood clots explaining the pain. Begged for a prescription inhaler until he can see me. The next 4 appointments were cancelled on me and then I gave up because 3rd doctor to do so and only 2 others in that hospital. But all the other branches in the surrounding areas are exactly the same so I've got no hope. I pray that things aren't like this for the rest of all of you suffering like this. Having no hope of help and knowing I won't have it when this does cause an emergency has forced me lose all hope in getting help. I'm disabled. Travel is too difficult. I'm stuck here in the dark with symptoms that have only gotten slightly worse over the 18 months I been here. Prayers and best wishes to all of you.

The story of your treatment makes me so angry snd sad for you. I lived in a small town in OREGON for 10 years, and was so sick from medcal treatment and neglect, I had infections throughout my body - kidneys, bladder, stomach, ureter, and more. I walked bent over. This started 6 years before Covid. My primary did not return my calls for 1 1/2 years. I finally started treating myself. Read and researsearched as much as I could and the rest was a combination of what was working, intuition, and luck. Got over most of the infections, My Moderna vaccine injury has left me in a similar poaition as you, but now I have docs that respond. I live in Northern Va with my son after becoming disabled from the Moderna vaccine, but I am still bedridden.
