Looking for real stories about GLP-1 use in Long COVID.
From microdoses to full doses.
If you've tried it (good or bad), slide into my DMs or drop a comment here.

Hello. A question for pw #LongCovid #MECFS taking low-dose Abilify / aripiprazole (LDA): if you had any negative effects from taking it, were they (quickly) reversible after stopping treatment and could you return to baseline? Also, any dosage recommendations? Thanks

I am curious to know if any #pwME or #LongCOVID have tried whole-body red-light therapy, and found it helpful for symptoms? There's a place near me that does it relatively affordably (for sports recovery/beauty) but I have been thinking about giving it a go? #MECFS

Long covid and ME/CFS peeps can anyone sum up the theory on using antihistamines as a treatment for fatigue? Do they suppress inflammation? Just a topline summary is all I need (brain too borked for anything complicated)
