Doctor is putting me on anxiety meds for #LongCovid. I'm not particularly anxious at the moment, though I've always had a bit more anxiety than I'd have liked. But there's literally nothing they can do for the physical symptoms so it's a vague hope that calming my nerves might improve things.

Depending on your symptoms, there's a lot they can do or recommend—most initial LC treatment is over the counter, just guided by an MD.

If you can't get a referral to an LC clinic or an integrative specialist, you'll find a lot on here from current patients. #pwLC

They've also said the previous blood tests are enough to recommend I stay permanently on a gluten free diet. I'm going to stay on it while I try the anxiety meds to avoid confusion between variables. But realistically if it still makes no difference to my day-to-day life, I'm not going to continue.
