Has anyone experienced Covid Gut? What helps?

I have had gut issues for almost a year and a half. Have had every test imaginable with coming back normal. My doctor has not diagnosed me with long COVID. So I now have another test scheduled, along with instructions to take 3 OTC meds all at the same time. I don't know if we'll ever get to the bottom of this.

From the studies I've read, Covid plays havoc on our gut bacteria, so the last time I saw my cardiologist I asked if it would be beneficial to empty my gut of all bacteria and start all over. Thankfully, he felt the benefits exceeded the risk and we did a two-week dumping and he suggested I use VSL#3 over the counter probiotic to rebuild the gut bacteria. Didn't get rid of the gut issue entirely, just made it a lot more tolerable.
