I have long COVID. It seems to be a coagulation issue and micro clots from some pub medical articles I read (coagulation issue). How do you think I can treat? Cryptolepsis? Artemisinin? Nattokinase and Serrapeptase?

mlg, my naturopath in January recommended I do Nattokinase 200mg Take 1 cap 3x day 20 minutes away from food Dissolves any micro blood clots in your brain Stay on for 2 weeks then Reduce to 1 cap per day

Hopefully, your appointment on Friday was helpful. I second the recommendation that Phoiph made. FLCCC or Covid19criticalcare is where I look for anything Covid.

The doctor rescheduled me for next week. It feels like severe babesia (coagulation, brain fog) and severe bartonella ( blood vessel problems, sudden hypertension, severe anxiety, depression, etc). Yes, I chose and FLCCC doctor. I tried nattokinase, Curcumin, bromelian, etc, but haven’t noticed an improvement. I also juice wheatgrass, kale, greens and take liposomal glutathione. I am frustrated. Thanks for the info and advice above.

If you're having vascular headaches I used ice around my head wherever it was hurting. Google breathing techniques to lower blood pressure until you find the right BP med. It'll help with anxiety too.

Uggh, just when you think you are going to get some help, they reschedule. Hopefully, the wait is not to difficult. Good to hear you chose a FLCCC doc.
Hang in there and please let us know how you are doing.

“ Here, we have analyzed in different cohorts of Long-Covid patients specific biomarkers before and after therapeutic apheresis. In patients that reported a significant improvement following two cycles of therapeutic apheresis, there was a significant reduction in neurotransmitter autoantibodies, lipids, and inflammatory markers.
Furthermore, we observed a 70% reduction in fibrinogen, and following apheresis, erythrocyte rouleaux formation and fibrin fibers largely disappeared as demonstrated by dark field microscopy.”

What is apheresis? Do you just inject heparin through intramuscular, etc?

Here is a definition of apheresis:
(a-feh-REE-sis) A procedure in which blood is collected, part of the blood such as platelets or white blood cells is taken out, and the rest of the blood is returned to the donor. Also called pheresis.

Janna Moen is a PhD neuroscientist who suffers from Long Covid. She started a blog to synthesize and share information with other patients.
She does a great job of breaking down the pathophysiology and discussing current research.
Anyone can click continue to read without subscribing, but this may be worth subscribing (free) because she keeps up with research and is able to reach out to scientists for clarification.

I have been following a doctor that treats long COVID in Texas
Dr Robert Groysman From his post There are going to continue to be many discussions about the causes and treatments because this is how medicine and science works. Yes both scientists, researchers, and medical doctors will debate over which of the treatments are best. Because there is so much noise out there, you will have to decide for yourselves who to trust and whose guidance you will follow. I would suggest that you pick and stick to one treatment and not jump around. I have made my opinions known and why I am sticking to these 4 below based on science and my experience. I won't be commenting on the other causes/treatments any more until there is new information available.
The causes and treatments I focus on are:
1. Dysautonomia
2. Mitochondrial dysfunction
3. Gut dysbiosis
4. MCAS
There are other causes and treatments that others focus on. I will point out that each has stated they have great success in treatment results, including myself.
1. Dr. Bruce Patterson focuses on testing interleukines, Maravoroc, statins, etc to treat persistant virus.
2. Dr. Vanhn focuses on testing for microclots and doing triple anticoagulant therapy.
3. Dr. McCollough focuses on spike protein detox and pericarditis treatment.
Still there are others who focus on:
4. HELP apheresis
5. Stem cell therapies
6. HBOT
