Keep learning about NETs and educating yourself. As you do not yet have a diagnosis, you do have some time to learn as much as you can. Has any blood work or other tests been done to further diagnose NETs?
Here are some tests/scans recommended by the Carcinoid Cancer Foundation for diagnosing and follow up for NETs.

On the Carcinoid Cancer Foundation website, you can view videos of doctors talking about this diagnosis. Some you will find are on the staff of Mayo Clinic.
You are wise to not focus too much on this right now. Has it been suggested that this might possibly be a Long COVID problem?
