I have tried both the I-Recover protocol and Dr McCullough's protocol. Neither worked for me. In addition, my system can not tolerate supplements like Bromelain and Curcumin.
I've listened to interviews that both Dr. Kory and Dr. McCullough gave, and each of them said that drugs and supplements that work for some don't, or won't, work for others and unfortunately that's the category I fall under.
The only thing that has helped me lead a semi-normal life is pacing myself and sticking to a routine that doesn't exhaust me.
But thank you for your recommendations.
One more thing ... if activity exhausts you, which it sounds like it does, maybe you have another condition that occurs with long COVID/vax ... iliac vein collapse. It keeps the blood from returning properly to be re-oxygenated. Athletes who could run, exercise, etc. all of a sudden can’t do anything & suffer after they do try activity.
The doctor who is treating this situation, more or less ‘discovered’ it, is Dr. Jordan Vaughan. Here is a podcast with Sharyl Atkisson that may shed some light:
Here is the link to Dr. Vaughan’s clinic:

Remote care for out of state patients is available.
It sounds to me like you have a very complex variety of long COVID & that to improve, you need to get care from someone like Dr. Vaughan (or Kory). You also could have a thrombotic condition.
