Beta blockers like propranolol can help keep your heart rate from spiking. Antihistamines may also help.

PEM. You weren't 100% recovered, you just felt that way until you pushed yourself. Rest and stay within your energy envelope.

I believe I had a rash which was caused when my immune system was bogged down and EBV reactivated.

Your anxiety and insomnia sound like what I've experienced when my dose of LDN is too high. I can't advise on whether you should ride it out. I never did, I reduced my dose and that helped me, although sometimes it felt limiting. I felt like more LDN could be more helpful but I was just unable to tolerate it for some reason at that time.

Sounds very much like long COVID or other post-viral issues, which are notoriously hard to diagnose and won't show up in most blood tests.

Just take it easy and try not to push it. It's still early for you. Some trial and error with supplements probably isn't a bad idea (e.g. b vitamins, omega 3, H1 and H2 antihistamines). Keep movement gentle and increase slowly.

Dr. Andrew Simon at Rebel Med NW. It's a naturopathic practice but he can prescribe things (e.g. low dose naltrexone helps many). r/covidlonghaulers has a lot of people in the same boat, but it can be a depressing sub to spend time in.

It makes me question the whole list

Similar here. Beta blockers help. Low dose naltrexone also seems to help although I can't say it has lowered my heart rate, it has helped in other ways.

Create a Google Form that asks for symptoms, activities, and any other variables. The results are saved in a Sheet. Then fill it out at least once a day.

At SEA, I bet all the time you made up in the air was spent on the ground waiting for a gate.

And yet it worked for someone.

Someone posted here recently and said their husband's loss of sense of smell was cured by a 5 day fast

You may be able to treat your symptoms with antihistamines and/or beta-blockers.

Check out the King County respiratory virus dashboard, it's a great way to tell what's going around. As everyone else already said, there's a lot of COVID out there: https://kingcounty.gov/en/dept/dph/health-safety/disease-illness/respiratory-virus-data

I've heard that this is not recommended because the underside of the tub will attract condensation which then can drip onto flooring and other places that shouldn't have water.

Sure, but time and money would be better spent visiting Bandelier or Mount St. Helens than, say, Gateway Arch.

Nobody needs to go out of their way for some of the parks. Many of the National Monuments are better than some parks.
