I don’t have personal experience, but I’ve heard that almost everyone who applies for SS disability is turned down on first try.

I’m praying for your improved health. I too have been handicapped as a result of this bo-agent which has limited my lung capacity. I pray you find overall improvement soon.

An extensive group of papers on the subject:

You could try enteric nattokinase, it’s hypothesized to work because it dissolves fibrin. It’s a protein so it needs to be protected from stomach acids:

It’s a shot in the dark because its bioavailability is in question, but if all else fails…

So sorry for all of your troubles.

Have you tried Ivermectin?

Prayers up.

Pretty much. I expected it. I was told told by the lawyer that minimum waiting time is 15-18 months. I might not see a thing until the middle of next year. :-(

I have tried nattokinase but it did nothing for me. I used it for about 45 days with no results. But I will link both those URLs you shared. Thank you.

I have Ivermectin and have used it. The jury is out on it’s effectiveness. Rest, pacing myself and prayer have been the only things that have had any effect.

You and I have discussed your long covid some. I’m so sorry I haven’t been able to help you more. I know you have tried everything! Please know that YOU are in my prayers, and I do hope that you are healed from this affliction. Prayers for your complete recovery!

FF

I was very fortunate that it did not, at least initially, affect my lungs. But I have now developed asthma, most likely caused by Covid. I go for another medical visit next week on that.

Thank you FF. Yes, I remember our conversations. I appreciate your advice, and your prayers. God bless!

That seems to be the norm. It’s almost as if they are instructed to deny the first time. But I think they will approve immediately for things like terminal cancer.

If you need hearing aids, some of the best cheap ones come from MD Hearing. I have been using them since 2005. Good luck with all your problems.

I am so sorry to read of your trouble you have been suffering.
I do pray for strength for you and that your SS problems will be resolved. Housing will open up... praying all in Jesus’ Precious Name.

On a side note I have suffered a lot with fatigue since my long covid. Never diagnosed as that but I got Covid in October 2021, 3 days after my hubby’s memorial. It lasted from October to February 2022 when I finally was able to get up out of bed.
Never had lung problems or pneumonia, but the weakness has bothered me for a LONG time. I’ve dealt with confusion, depression, and many other side affects.
I did take Ivermectin and zinc.

I also suffered a lot with insomnia for a while and just this last month have been sleeping again almost through the night. SO I DO understand your post!!
PRaying much for you.
I am taking a lot of natural vitamins.

One of my sons took the Pfizer Jab and Booster.

Later he became very ill. We sent him Dr. Peter McCullough’s SPIKE SUPPORT FORMULA and came out of it soon after.
