Hey, thanks so much for replying!
There's a big difference in our circumstances. I had autoimmune dx long, long before I got Covid (twice).
Boy, you have my sympathy on the Long Covid stuff!
I got Covid the first time in October of 2020. It's all kind of a blur, but I think that there weren't medications for non-hospitalized patients at that time. I stayed home. All of my nurse relatives and friends suggested that I stay away from hospitals unless I really, really needed care there. It was a nightmare in their hospitals.
When the symptoms kept recurring after a couple of weeks, nobody at that time knew about Long Covid. Same as you, people thought I was nuts or telling lies or whatever... I thought I was going nuts and my brain just wouldn't work right!
I will read through your message again (my brain still isn't as sharp as it was).
And let me thank you again for taking the time to reply! It's amazing how helpful people are on this site and how reassuring it is to know that other people are experiencing similar things.
Good luck with your health issues, too!
There are a lot of things you can do to help with cognitive issues of LC. Read everything you can by James Jackson @ Vanderbilt. My brain fog, some still there is improving. Ivig does not help the cognitive issues at all. I'm about to start my workout which I must do daily or I slide or flare. I think it's a neurovascular issue but Goodluck trying to get anyone to read Pretorios's work on microclotting or brain inflammation. But I will try and send you links. I'm usually easy better mentally after I workout
