I wrote about it to you here: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/889113/

The most noticeable improvement was with improved energy. I have central sensitization, POTS, HSD, small fiber neuropathy, seronegative spondyloarthropathy (an inflammatory arthritis), and long COVID with fatigue, chronic pain, and GI symptoms.

I do not take any other medication except a biologic for the spondyloarthropathy, because I don't tolerate medication well. The foundation of my chronic pain management is physical therapy and a comprehensive/integrative pain management approach (focus on function and improving the way the central nervous system/brain interprets pain signals).

Just curious...are you working with your pcp ? Are you in a long haul clinic etc?

Can you explain how you go about "improving the way the central nervous system/brain interprets pain signals"? How did you find someone to help with this? Is it some kind of meditation?
