How long have you had post-covid?

I was hospitalized for a week in November 2021 with Covid pneumonia. Almost all of my symptoms have gone away except the brain fog/dizziness. I have done physical therapy, seen an ENT, neurologist and worked with my family physician. No one in my area can answer why I’m still dealing with this unclear head. I am scheduled for an appointment with a neurologist at Northwestern in Chicago next week. Hoping they will provide some answers.
Praying we all find relief soon!!

Gosh, I sure hope you do. Good to hear that other symptomes hve gone.

Anticoagulant regimens are a promising way to address abnormal clotting159; in one study, resolution of symptoms was seen in all 24 patients receiving triple anticoagulant therapy31.

Apheresis has also shown promise to alleviate long COVID symptoms; it has been theorized to help remove microclots160 and has been shown to reduce autoantibodies in ME/CFS161. However, it is quite expensive, and its benefits are uncertain.
