You body sounds like it has a lot of inflammation. Have you ever tried a gut/liver cleanse to see if that calms your symptoms? Unknown to me when I did this, it worked. Crazy but a very strict high quality animal based diet for 6 weeks (like the one on Heart and Soil) did the trick. Very little to no carbs, no alcohol or smoking for that time period. You HAVE to stick to the plan, no cheating during this period to reset gut and flush of toxins in liver. Honestly in just 1.5 weeks my body had a huge transformation (along with hundreds others in the group that followed to a T) and I lost so much water weight and overall bloat. GI issues/pains totally gone. Gas totally gone. Bloat totally gone. Brain fog gone. Energy spiked beyond belief. Heart flutters started to subside. Mood and libido improved. Sugar levels stabilized - no more crashes and cravings. Hormones stabilized - cycle & skin improved. Tingles/numbness/weakness improved and after a year adding back in some carbs is dramatically better. Blood work is stabilized and iron/ferritin improving. Colon/endo normal/healthy and signs of healing. After 10 years of Synthroid, may no longer need thyroid drugs. Now I know what veg/fruit my body likes best and can even inteminate fast when I couldn't before. Honestly I'm in shock the results as something so simple but now I see the science and feel enormously better than I have since post P shots. I was a skeptic but desperate for anything and it worked for me to heal from post v issues along with some others. Might be something to look into since it sounds like your inflamed/having autoimmune responses, too. Gook luck!

I agree with you, the GI track is a big part of Long Covid. I did a Gut Dump getting rid of all bacteria in it and starting over with new bacteria. We chose VSL#3 an over-the-counter probiotic and got significant improvements though not 100% resolution - I still have gut problems but I'm not tethered to the porcelain throne 24 - 7. The second inflation problems appear to be nerves. Hips, right side of my head, feet and my right arm and hand. All seem to be located at old orthopedic injuries except for the right arm-hand. It appears that either Covid or post covid vaccine immune system is attacking these areas. and resulting in debilitating nerve pain. I go from severe joint pain to sciatica. Thanks for the suggestion. My current diet is not eating anything after 4:00 PM so not to disturb the terrorist in my gut.

I see supplements but not a particular diet plan on Heart and Soil. I’m on a 45/45/10 protein, fat, carb regimen with a ton of immune support supplements and 2 meals a day. Trying to reverse diabetes. Still fatigue is my biggest issue. I am trying more bone broth and electrolytes to keep hydrated which helps.

What is your specific diet apart from good meats?

Where can you find the info on how to follow the gut/liver cleanse? Is there a book or a site you followed on line?

Restoring gut microbiome is crucial to well being and reducing inflammation. Good for you!!!
