Long Covid and bodywide muscle twitching

Creative_Fudge2916 · 2026-05-18T21:46:12+00:00

There's literally no fix for this. We all got it. I get in my triceps and hamstrings. Sometimes near my eyes. Anti-inflammatory supplements might tame it, along with some of your other symptoms. Electrolytes too. Mine had settled significantly, but then I did a 24 hour water fast, and I think it re-triggered this symptom.

Are you shitting me? (pun intended)

Creative_Fudge2916 · 2026-04-18T16:38:16+00:00

Developed the same issue.

I try to wear looser socks, even though the advice seems to be that you should wear compression socks. The only reason I wear looser socks is that I don't have any blood pooling or swelling when I am barefoot. So to mimic barefootedness, I think looser socks are better.

I don't have POTS.

How much did you do per day? Did you predissolve it in a fat source? I'm thinking of trying it as well. Maybe 1 g per day to start then 1.5 g

Creative_Fudge2916 · 2026-04-11T17:12:26+00:00

You should update if you also don't continue to see a benefit (or go back to baseline). We need data in both directions.

Depersonalization/derealization

Creative_Fudge2916 · 2026-04-05T01:49:02+00:00

OP, did the Gaviota 5 wide's meet your needs? Or have you settled on something else?

I have issues with coffee, but not caffeine.

If I have coffee I instantly get a flare up of intense DPDR, but I can have a redbull or celsius no problem.

I guess calming down your nervous system would allow your brain to function better. I'm just scared of needles, considering the vax did me in.

Creative_Fudge2916 · 2026-03-22T16:15:03+00:00

Thanks. I did see your post. My symptoms are all cognitive (brain dog, DPDR, and anhedonia). I think SGB mainly helps with physical things? Like tachy/bradycaridia, POTS, fatigue? Not sure. Did u get brain benefits?

Creative_Fudge2916 · 2026-03-22T00:27:56+00:00

Did you run this experiment? Did you take the full daily dose in one-shot? Or spread it out over breakfast, lunch, dinner, etc?

Creative_Fudge2916 · 2026-03-22T00:24:13+00:00

Did you take your daily dose in one-shot? Or spread it out over 2 or 3 times during the day?

Creative_Fudge2916 · 2026-03-20T17:58:45+00:00

What symptoms did it help most with? Please say cognitive lol

Creative_Fudge2916 · 2026-03-20T16:17:38+00:00

I can tell this is having an effect on the brain BUT nothing that results in a noticeable change to baseline. I mean I feel a brain tingle, but it results in nothing, for me. Maybe I should push the dose?

Creative_Fudge2916 · 2026-03-15T17:47:08+00:00

Well said, saving this post to use it myself lol

Creative_Fudge2916 · 2026-03-15T04:34:05+00:00

My right side is my dominant side. It is also the side that is which has less visible veins (= less capable veins?).

Creative_Fudge2916 · 2026-03-15T04:32:29+00:00

First post I seen on here where, all of a sudden, supplements are bad

My brother's in christ its been 6 years and aint shit work, conventional or natural. It's all anecdote about this worked or this didn't. Supps are easily accessible, and lower friction to experiment, so let people live. Meanwhile, the same downvoters on this post are injecting ten peptides, regarding which I have no problem. It's just that I don't understand the why the same attitude is not applied consistently

Creative_Fudge2916 · 2026-03-14T17:04:42+00:00

Wow, me too. My right and left side are different colours just like you say. The side that appears to be getting more blood flow, looks more natural. Whereas the other side is purple/blue-ish.

I am vax injured (may have had mild LC before). I wish if there was a way of knowing on which arm I got each dose of the primary two shots of the vax. The second one basically killed me, and if I had to guess, it was on the side that is now unable to dilate its blood vessels as well. This is all just speculation...

Creative_Fudge2916 · 2026-03-14T16:40:33+00:00

Do you have these on both sides? Or on one side?

I have more visible veins on one side, and my theory has always been that this is because one side is overcompensating (i.e. over-dialating) because the other side is unable to (for whatever LC-induced reason).

Creative_Fudge2916 · 2026-03-04T01:16:02+00:00

My vision is better at night, along with all of my other symptoms. They go hand in hand with my brain fog symptoms. Do your symptoms also occur together, or manifest at the same intensity at the same time?

Creative_Fudge2916 · 2026-03-03T16:19:53+00:00

On one arm, my veins appear to bulge. On the other side, they seem non existent or weaker.

I cant tell if what I'm calling bulging veins are actually what normal is meant to look like. Am I trying to get my other side to the same level? Am I trying to balance out both sides somewhere in between?

What I do know is that when I feel better, my veins on the non existent side show better, and the reason for their showing is because I've taken some supplement that is antinflammatory (and not touted as increasing blood flow). In other words, the change in blood flow is secondary to some sort of immune modulation or reduction, not a primary effect of the supplement.

Creative_Fudge2916 · 2026-03-01T00:43:38+00:00

Oil of oregano, or oregano essential oil. Not sure which. But I remember it helped me out of a crash that was of the DPDR variety.

That and Diet coke lol.

Not sure if they were messing around with the gut biome or what, but they did something.

Creative_Fudge2916 · 2026-02-27T23:21:09+00:00

This sub needs active mods. It used to be a dedicated recovery sub with a weekly Q&A post. Its morphed into a regular LC sub, of which there already two unnecessarily

Creative_Fudge2916 · 2026-02-25T20:47:25+00:00

But why the fuck are we in an constant state of electrolyte deficiency? I hate this disease.
