Have you been cured of POST COVID?

Yes. The first one was Vitamin C, Zinc and Glutathione. The 2nd one was Vitamin C, Zinc, Glutathione & B Vitamins. Blessings....

wonderful to hear good news.
continued good and better health…

i will mention infusions to my functional medicine dr.
thank you for sharing.

If your doctor agrees, I advise you to start with a low dose the first time and build up. Blessings.....

If you can, get yourself to the Mayo Long Covid Clinic in Rochester. My insurance covered all but airfare and housing but it was worth it for many reasons (a) docs know the latest and they believe and confirm what we say, (b) they follow Mayo traditions of testing to tell you what you don’t have so you know heart and lungs, for example, have not been damaged by the virus (despite symptoms), (c) they lay out a program without big pharma drugs to treat symptoms (not caused) that can make things worse when the virus has over-sensitized our central nervous system into a constant flight-flight, and (d) advise on optional for natural supplements and diet. Program included consults with great physical therapy folks there who know how to work with folks with post-exertion problems or Covid induced POTS and followup via zoom with an online wellness coach who was both my cheerleader and the best in offering strategies and support when I was most discouraged. I am slowly getting stronger and recovery from crashes is shorter. It’s taken me 15 months and I still have a way to go to be all I was — a high performing professional (now retired) who could multi-task like the best of them. Slow and steady has become my mantra. I can actually see a light at the end of the most debilitating of tunnels. Also most helpful — Redinger’s book “Cured” and changing to a nutrition-dense diet. God bless, all who suffer. I never thought I’d get back to anything close to full health, but see that I can and will. ❤️

My Long Covid symptoms are much improved 9 months to a year after my 2nd Covid infection.
1st infection was a Delta Variant/pneumonia co-infection 10/21. The 2nd infection was in August 2022.

I assembled a team of specialists with much frustration due to long waitlists for doctors and scheduling appointments 2-9 months out.
Primary Care Doc was helpful with recommending specialists in my insurance network. Sometimes I would work with a registered Nurse Practitioner rather than wait for a doctor to become available. A good NP will spend an hour with you…which is how long it takes to tell a long Covid story.
- Pulmonologist
- Neurologist
- Physical Therapist
- Social Worker for Cognitive Talk Therapy
- Psychiatrist
- Gastroenterologist
- ENT Doc
- Allergist/Immunologist
- Endocrinologist
- YMCA pool time and gentle yoga.
- Walking my dog in the woods with friends.

I got the idea that I needed a team of doctors from an article I read about the old Swiss Alps Tuberculosis Clinics that were being converted into Long Covid Clinics. Traveling to Switzerland wasn’t an option, so I have had to manage my own recovery.

I was suffering from chronic diarrhea post Covid infection. My Gastroenterology NP and Doctor prescribed Xifaxan off label for 2 weeks and stool samples to confirm that I did not have C Dif or parasites. The virus had not flushed out of my system, and was lingering in my intestinal tract. My symptoms cleared up and I felt much better, had more energy, clearer mind, and started riding my bike. Then I got a 2nd Covid infection and a relapse of diarrhea. I took another 2 week dose of Xifaxan and again that cleared up my symptoms.
For rapid heartbeat and migraines, I was prescribed and continue to take Propranolol. I also spent several months working with a Physical Therapist who did dry needling and recommended specific exercises for headaches and to relieve tension and body aches from the coughing fits that had racked my torso during Covid.
The ENT prescribed a short course of prednisone for ear swelling and Tinnitus. Also Physical Therapy dry needling treats ear and face pain and Tinnitus. I also did some Vestibular Therapy for dizziness and balance issues with my PT.
My Pulmonologist nurse prescribed Spiriva Respimat to open my Bronchial airways and she said that her Long Covid patients were responding well to Spiriva Respimat 1 or 2 puffs in the morning. It helped me to be able to walk my dog farther without feeling like I needed to sit down on neighbors’ steps to rest halfway.
My Psychiatrist had me do a cheek swab and submit to Genomind for psychiatric genetic testing. I tend to have weird reactions and sensitivity to inactive ingredients in pills and tablets. Basically ingredients that extend shelf life in medications make my face turn red and sinuses swell up.
He prescribed Pristiq 25 mg daily which is an SNRI and extended release. It is helping me to feel more even keeled. My Genomind results suggested that an SNRI would be better suited for my metabolic processes than an SSRI. I had not felt any better mood-wise when I tried Zoloft.
My results said regular exercise would improve my mood as well.

My Endocrinologist tested my Thyroid levels and increased my Synthroid dosage to 75 mg each morning. I got approved for name brand only because I have sensitivity to inactive ingredients in the generic. Also name brand Synthroid has more consistent levels of the active ingredient, whereas the generic versions can vary. My hair started growing back. I also started Nutrafol supplements and a hair tonic Phytocyane for temporary hair loss.
I started Aquafitness classes at the YMCA and enjoy Body Balance classes.

No cure for me, but I have been able to resume more physical activity. Actually walked 4miles! My leg muscles previously would have started feeling wooly afterwards when resting,
but I was ok this time.
Once in a while I get a brief taste of a food, a few seconds, then it's gone.
My brain fog gets prominent when I get stressed. No multi-tasking either.
My gift for cooking has gone.....I get confused now & have to strictly follow written recipes.
Many many other symptoms have altered my abilities, but are not life threatening.
I am not suffering pain as so many others are. My lungs&heart are well. My family supportive. I am blessed, but I am not my real regular self by any means & I am praying for us all to find a "cure".
