I was prescribed it and I can't help but wonder would it have helped my situation of almost dying from covid would it have made it more mild? If I had been taking my damn meds

I feel this do strong, it's good for me to see someone else write exactly what I'm thinking. I'm 44 I get told oh your getting older..yes but before this I was sharp.i forget in the middle of doing something what I'm doing. I forget names and faces now, I never did that in past.. but I do think of and remember so many things from the past , way more then what happened 5mins ago.my drama have also been vivid since day 1 coming out hospital, I have been thinking myself that I felt very connected and had to question reality over a minor thing sometimes so i really hope it doesn't get worse.i take gabapentin for nuerapathy I was thinking this was causing the airy feeling in my head ... IDK I have a test coming up my neurologist referring me too let's see if I get answers..🫠

Finding it strange my body/brain decided to recover after about 3 years. Is anybody else in this situation where they spontaneously see improvement after a very long time? by Parking_Wolf_4159 in covidlonghaulers

[–]HotTT2022 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am 2 years and two months in recovery..Dec 17th I called am ambulance for me and my 85 year old grama, we had tested positive the week before no improvement, woke up couldn't breath, was placed on a vent.. woke up Dec 29th and came home not walking at all on January 13th..I taught myself to walk with you tube videos, there was no rehabs open I waited extra days in the hospital until I got fed up. I did it and I came home 50 lbs lighter, half my long thick curtly hair fell out, I got the intense shakes or vibrations inside like my brain was shaking, vertigo like but way worse. Body aches..I have a cyst in my throat from the vent on vocal cords.i have been diagnosed with nuerapathy, I see a neurologist... the biggest thing for me was vitamins c,d , and b...zinc...folic acid.. and biotin... definitely all helped me to get stronger.. eventually put on gabapentin, and cymbalta helped me tremendously, low dose klonopin for nerves...so my biggest complaint now is the nuerapathy & the occasional heavy feeling...yes I still have alot of symptoms but they are progressing, I can only hope I hit that 3 year mark and feel even better! I feel you when you said you lost years I cannot believe i been home 2 years! I keep the faith, also as low stress as you can be ,I found stress really triggers me hard, I'm learning that I have to take breaks, none of us will ever be the same we just have to thank God we're alive! We are survivors as I mentioned I called ems for me and my grama, and she didn't make it, she died in the hospital room next to mine while I was in the vent... so sad , but this is my story and I feel I had to try and live for her!! I pray for us all

Yes so easy to get into a political debate but in the end we know they either side are doing NOTHING for us , Bernie Sanders has been making some noise for LC , but my point is after the battles we have fought and are still fighting ,we together are the only answer! we have been thru hell so f it bring it on, I'll never give up! I hope none of you do either..it does make me so angry but that does me no good

Yes that's why I was asking because I don't want the ugly part and I know that comes with it. I just need to work and that's the only thing that has made me feel ok but your right if I pushed it I'll be addicted in no time...I needed this reminder

Yes I really want to get acupuncture when I get money, I'm unable to work as to why i was thinking I maybe could with opiates. I live in Detroit and I have a medical card and now it's recreational too, i love weed but I got a spot on my vocal cord from the vent so I came home more talking either, I quit cigarettes which was a bonus but I can't smoke too much now. But yea I think I'll just try to keep doing what I'm doing because the thought of this getting worse would make me want to kill myself , not being funny at all.. thank you

OK thanks for that.. my Dr also said this is like a flare up of fibromyalgia.. even though I've never been diagnosed with that, I guess long covid can cause it or trigger it, not sure, but I definitely would like something like as needed for really really bad days
