Hi Bayhorse! You seem to know a lot about MCS. Perhaps you can guide me! I have been sick/ill going on 14 years. I literally suddenly woke up one morning feeling like I had the flu. It was so severe I was placed on disability with a Lupus label due to my severity of my symptoms. Fast forward. I have MCS, gluten intolerance, sugar alcohol intolerance, food intolerances. Not one doctor can tell me how this occurred. My symptoms are flu like symptoms, brain fog, dry eyes, hives weakness, headache, nausea etc. When these flare ups occur I go to bed for days at a time. My medications for treating these episodes are Advil, pepto bismol, Medrol dose pack and rest. Tysvm!

I was diagnosed with colagenous colitis a few years ago. It is likely associated with the celiac that I have had for 14 years. I had covid in March and had some chest pain; the cardiologist recommended aspirin (covid is associated with clots from stickier blood). It took a week but the aspirin did cause a flare that went away with stopping (no NSAIDs so you might want to use tylenol insead of advil). I control inflammation by diet (no gluten and minimal processed foods), exercize, and managing stress. We all have different levels and types of inflammations and associated symptoms. I think diagnoses are tougher when you have multiple inflammatory diseases (I have at least 4).

I take a prescription drug for my lupus. I'm in the car can't wait to remember the name of it. It's the one they said would treat covid-19 when it first started period enter someone would know what that pill was I take a pill and a half every day and it is for my lupus
