Make sure to consult a doctor before doing self treatment.
Nearly everything in the comments is at the early stage of research. Be careful being your own doctor
Some posters asked me to make a sticky threat on long COVID recovery, including medication, supplements and behavioural changes. Thoughts y'all? Is this a good idea? If the response is positive, I can make this a sticky.
I'm afraid that it possibly could link to unproven recommendations, but frankly I haven't looked enough into the issue.
Feel free to comment on any method on long COVID recover that you know. Please link to research and medical papers. Sadly overly weak or pseudo-scientific stuff will have to get removed, but please no hard feelings for making an effort. I'm very comfortable with Wikipedia's policy on medical sources, so I might err in that direction if it's OK. I'm definitely not working in medicine, btw.
Thanks!
edit: I just worry that a lot of this below is early stage research. I know that comrades are suffering, but we could be doing real damage if people go out and do self treatment, they can very seriously hurt themselves worst. I'm sorry that medical stuff is hard, expensive, and unfair. But I have a duty to inform people to be careful with self treatment.
No worries. The first l-arginine study had 1390 patients successfully complete they survey. The second one, 46.
Tbh, I wasn't expecting anything in this post to be seriously taken as medical advice merely stuff to look out for. Imo, things are still very early and idk that anyone is gonna find anything that meets that criteria. As I said in the other post we're all kinda shooting in the dark here with very little options. But that's also why I wanted a mod in charge and not me. Whatever y'all are comfortable with.
Nah it's fine. I just feel that I have a responsibility to speak up and comment, just to keep people from too quickly self medicating. I think that people are understandably desperate, and could do something desperate. I don't mean it to criticise you.
Totally get it. Also, agree with your concern, but also with people who might experiment. Extraordinary circumstances, I guess. I don't have healthcare, but watching doctors and nurses just abandoning germ theory and prevention makes me think the future is gonna require some sort of alternative that is probably gonna be pretty messy starting off.
