I completely understand what you are going through.
I have been suffering from long-covid gastrointestinal issues for well over a year. I've had x-rays, CT-scans, endoscopy, colonoscopy, blood drawn, gastric emptying study, and it all comes back normal. I made an appt at University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha 3 months ago. Tomorrow was the earliest they could get me in. Their office just called a little while ago to tell me that I can't see a PA for my 1st visit. I have to see a real doctor. They can't get me in til April. I am beyond discouraged. My qualify of life stinks. I'm sick to my stomach, all day, every day. Weight loss, no appetite, excessive burping. I am absolutely miserable but no one, apparently, is taking me seriously.
So, I know exactly how you feel. You are not alone in this fight.

My heart and prayers go out to you and your frustration I can completely relate the best thing that my gastrologist had told me is start a gastroparesis diet. And try using liquid meals it helps. Also I'm not a fan of Gatorade or Powerade anything of that sort but I found that drinking one or two body armors a day seems to help with the fatigue and also sues the belly it does mine. As far as finding doctors or anything I'm just in hope that my new PCP will be a good one she is a holistic first approach kind of position and that's exactly what I believe in I have YouTube I have researched CDC there is another website now that is called long covid.org you may find some information out there as well and one thing that I have found today is if you go to your Google site and type in local charity that it brings up for your county God bless you and I wish you all the best

I contracted covid 2/20 and have been sick ever since. It affected many things including stomach issues. I have had some success taking l-glutamine, deglycerized licorice and marshmallow root.
