Hi@summerof42. So sorry your exacerbating issues continue. Hope this comes across kind light intended. Post covid is unchartered and unfortunately will take time to document and teach those in the medical community who’ve not had it personally. The symptoms from post covid create anxiety so mindfulness key to reduce physical and mental stress. Pacing is crucial because you shouldn't allow yourself to use up the limited healing energy ie you shouldn't do what you think you can. Simple things like typing and talking use more than you think so limiting yourself will allow your body to create and retain the helpful environment it needs. Simple things like cold cloths on the intense areas can give you the relief to ease your pain/burn/itch and mind to relax and sleep. Box breathing for just a minute or two when first feel more pain/anxiety will reset your nervous system to help everything function better and just a minute of closing your eyes and doing nothing every hour most bodies love. Literally setting alarms to assure you do these and consistent eating small amounts every couple of hours, routine bedtime/wake up with laying quiet activity if awake like listen to music as even reading too much during these times and that rest /consistency crucial. Its so hard to notice what isnt being done in the chaos of just trying to get thru this☹️ Think most of us on this sight are seeing improvement, no matter how small or often or how much time, with focus on that key to mentally cope. As other wonderful doctors and nurses like us on this site have shared, we can create the healing steps needed and you have all of us in your corner!!🌈

Sorry @summerof 42. Forgot to mention food key too. Found cinnamon and spinach,I use to live on before, causing increased histamine/inflammation with post covid and noticeable differences when discontinued them. Hopefully finding your food triggers will create weight gain🤞🌈
