I was hospitalized with Covid in February and began the Long Covid treatment program in Rochester early this summer. When I started, I was functioning at about 20% of what I used to be able to do before Covid, I've seen a PT, an OT, had CBT therapy to help me adjust to the dramatic changes in my life and relationships, and I'm currently in a sleep-restriction treatment for insomnia. My overall post-Covid treatment is ongoing, but office visits are tapering off as I continue to use the tools I've been taught. It's been a hard, constant struggle, but I've been diligent about following all instructions and applying all I've learned. At this point, after about 4 months, I'd say I'm now at about 40% of what I used to be capable of. I don't know if I'll ever be completely well, but the program has definitely helped me. I'm now equipped to continue working toward my goal of getting my life back to an acceptable level, and I can count on support and encouragement when I'm in need of it.
