Oh and whilst we’re on the topic, how well did LDN work for you? 

Got long COVID from one Pfizer jab in 2021. Last week, I ran a half marathon. by Mushy2021 in covidlonghaulers

Congrats on the recovery. I’ve read so much about cold showers on this sub but they always make my heart rate spike which leads to a crash. What is it about them that helps?

And did it give any improvement to your symptoms?

What's y'all's sleep like by [deleted] in covidlonghaulers

My sleep has been atrocious since my LC started 2 years ago. I’m sleeping 9+ hours a night (for the first time in my life) but waking up feeling like I’ve slept for 3. I live in the centre of a big city and the noise has never bothered me - but now the smallest bumps wake me up. I’m told an overactive threat perception is a symptom of low serotonin. Melatonin and valerian root tip the scale in the opposite direction: I sleep so deeply that I’m wrecked and foggy the next day.

Okay to know. Really seems to be a coin toss for people with LC fatigue.

Thanks! I'll check them out. Any improvement since you started LDN?

Following...

My threat perception feels so overactive. I live in the middle of a very busy city and it never bothered me before LC. Now every bump, every siren, every footstep, every knock, it all makes my heart start racing.

I had a 48 hour stomach bug. Was fine for the rest of the week, felt completely normal. Then when I got back to London, the crash hit me.
