It Is Now 3 Years Since I've Been Diagnosed With COVID. I Have Lung Damage Because Of It. Pulmonologist Calls It COVID Fibrosis.
A myCOVIDteam Member asked a question 💭

I see the Pulmonologist 3 times a year and take Cortisone tablets daily. My oxygen level sits around 95%. I have been experiencing lower oxygen levels in the evening and in the morning when I wake up. My Pulmonologist has suggested lung replacement, but said that it is not very successful. Has anyone else experienced what I have and if so, do you have any suggestions?

Low Protein Diet Correlated With Long COVID?
A myCOVIDteam Member asked a question 💭

Hi All
I stay in Pretoria South Africa
I contracted Covid in May 2022, and despite not being seriously ill, are still struggling with the Long Covid symptoms to this day.
