Hi poppy67..thanks for your reply..hugs to you too...this long haul covid is unreal..and life is sometimes a minute at a time...people do not get this..they can just go on with their daily activities and not think twice about it. I cherish my good moments...I get done with work and then I have to come home..my digestive issues from long haul control me...I am unable to control it...medications have numerous side effects which make the issues worse. I wish people could understand us and know that this is not our fault, we are not making this up, and we would do anything to change this if we only could. It has been since December 21, 2021 for me. It is hard when you go to a physician for help and they tell you there is nothing we can do for you, and maybe with time this will go away. Hang in there my friend. I love this site as I feel that I do not have to feel so alone. This is a socially isolating syndrome. Sincerely kitty2
