For some people, coronavirus (COVID-19) can cause symptoms that last weeks or months after the infection has gone. This is sometimes called post-COVID-19 syndrome or “long COVID”.
Many people feel better in a few days or weeks and most will make a full recovery within 12 weeks. But for some people, symptoms can last longer. People who had mild symptoms at first can still have long-term problems.
Common long COVID symptoms include:
- extreme tiredness (fatigue)
- shortness of breath
- chest pain or tightness
- problems with memory and concentration (“brain fog”)
- difficulty sleeping (insomnia)
- heart palpitations
- dizziness
- pins and needles
- joint pain
- depression and anxiety
- tinnitus, earaches
- feeling sick, diarrhoea, stomach aches, loss of appetite
- a high temperature, cough, headaches, sore throat, changes to sense of smell or taste
- rashes
Symptoms & Duration of Recovery
Symptoms may vary dependant on two main factors
- re activation
- co-infecton of secondary causes
Symptoms involve
- Neuro inflammation (demyelination/ nerve damage – resulting in anosmia, loss of taste, pins and needles in hands and feet)
Mechanism of Action
Long Covid protocols essentially involve generating sufficient free pool of NAD+ As such, the focus is on restoring this via NIACIN (Vitamin B3), which produces a “flushing type effect” whereby cell debree, viral remnants, and (exosomic) toxins are subsequently flushed out.
