Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)

Hi, my name is Kai. I got covid in 2020 and been in a housebound state. With severe fatigue, food/chemical sensitivities

I've tried diets, supplements(neutraceuticals), detoxes, brain rewiring programs, energy healing, naturopaths, functional medicine doctors, and many more things.

Curious about the group and what's out there. I joined the slack group in 2020 but stopped checking by 2021. Back here again 2025.

Hi, my name is Lindatalkalot. I've been diagnosed with Dysautonomia and POTS, possibly due to COVID.

I’m a 21-year-old Functional Medicine Nutrition Counselor and Life Coach with a passion for holistic health and wellness. Raised near the beach in Florida, I’m deeply connected to both the coastal and intuitive lifestyles. My journey has been one of exploration and self-discovery, spending years at different colleges before realizing that functional medicine was my true calling.

As a board-certified Functional Medicine Nutrition Counselor and Life Coach, my mission is to help others achieve balance through a holistic approach to health. My life took a dramatic turn in 2021 when I contracted COVID-19, which led to the onset of the post-COVID autoimmune epidemic. I went from being a healthy, high-achieving student athlete to a hospitalized, depressed college student, struggling to understand how COVID had completely shifted the course of my life.

After years of feeling lost in the conventional healthcare system, where over-prescribed medications left my body in ruins and created lasting damage, I made the life-changing decision to turn to holistic and alternative medicine in 2023. I walked away from my NCAA sport, transferred back home for college, and dedicated myself to learning everything I could about alternative healing methods. It was through this journey that I regained control of my health.

I weaned myself off all prescribed medications, battled through withdrawals, and spent countless hours researching and educating myself on the mind-body connection. Over time, I restored balance to both my body and mind. This transformation has driven me to help others do the same. I now live a life filled with purpose, having rediscovered the ability to eat, work out, secure jobs, finish college, and more—things I once thought were out of reach.

With a focus on lifestyle changes, diet, exercise, research, and personalized counseling, I’m here to help you reclaim your health and well-being. I understand the pain of feeling lost and trapped in a body that doesn’t feel like your own. If you’re struggling with illness or the effects of chronic conditions, I’m committed to guiding you toward a higher version of yourself—one where you feel in control and truly alive again.

A memoir from a girl who lost her life to covid

I still vividly remember the chaos that erupted when COVID first broke out. It felt as though the world suddenly stopped in its tracks. Schools were shut down for what seemed like an eternity, and months turned into an endless stretch of online classes that became the new norm. What had once been simple routines meeting friends, going to the store, enjoying family gatherings were replaced with masks, social distancing, and an overwhelming sense of fear. It became impossible to walk into a store, a building, or even a park without seeing the world covered in masks. These small pieces of fabric became a symbol of a new reality we were all forced to adapt to.

Nearly five years after the first cases of an unusual pneumonia appeared in Wuhan in December 2019, nearly 7 million people have lost their lives due to covid, and some 65 million more continue to struggle with the infection’s mystery aftermath, a poorly understood syndrome known as long covid. Covid not only took the world by storm, but also wreaked havoc on the lives of many to this day. Though I wish it was, it’s not as simple as contracting a disease, and being over it within a week or two. It's catching the disease, and never getting better. It's catching the disease, and having a long list of symptoms you must now juggle on the daily. It's a disease you not only catch, but a disease you can never get rid of. It has been observed throughout the past 3 years that covid has had a profound effect on the autonomic nervous system. Interestingly enough, these lingering symptoms are often different from the traditional symptoms of covid itself. This includes affecting blood pressure fluctuating out of control, orthostatic hypotension, palpitations, brain fog, fatigue, impotence, bladder dysfunction, alterations in bowel function, and gastrointestinal issues. The wide range of symptoms listed really highlight the multisystem nature of long covid and its ability to disrupt various body functions. It is a sad reality our nation is having to face, and a reality many young people are facing. It is not only older adults, but we are seeing more and more cases in teenages and young adults. These young adults' lives are often significantly altered forever, and they may never reach their full potential because of the long term effects this disease causes.

Hi, my name is Sue99. I'm here because I have ME/CFS symptoms made worse by Long Covid. Looking for support and answers - hopefully a laugh sometimes too x

#MightyTogether #ChronicFatigueSyndrome

Hi, my name is vicimic. I've been diagnosed with many illnesses starting with small insignificant things that I took too many antibiotics for, (UTI's, Parasites) that then created many health issues. From Cdiff, stomach problems, a heart condition, bowl issues, bile salt malabsorption, hair and weight loss then long covid. Now I just live in constant pain and exhaustion. I am looking to try and find people who understand some of what I am going through and to find out what has worked or not.
