It’s been a real nightmare.

Seeking a referral for the specific underlying symptom and abstaining from mentioning long covid finally resulted in better care it seems.

- cfeduke 4y agoMy wife started to have many of the symptoms of long COVID starting around September of this year. No official diagnosis from her many doctors and specialists, just a constant barrage of co-pays and test after test after test. Some of her doctors say for certain it is not long COVID but they also say they do not know what it is... so... uh huh. Just have to keep on testing, and do the same test multiple times.
