Simply bonkers. LC made me pre-diabetic with high cholesterol and a thyroid that doesn’t like stabilization, but yours did all that and then some. Also, randomly, the woman who owns the hair salon I go to had COVID and then didn’t have so many LC symptoms, but developed these lymphedema and lipidema issues too. Didn’t change her diet at all but put on all this weight in a short period of time and all lumpy/unevenly too. It’s so upsetting. Luckily she found a nurse practitioner who was paying attention and geared her toward the diabetes drugs. She eventually returned to her normal weight. But so strange!

P.S. you’re such a smartass and I’m HERE FOR IT 😆

I’m interested in GLPs for long Covid (I’m also one of those stretchy bendy types) but my body mass index is too low to qualify even if I were to buy it without insurance. Commenting on the off chance you hear of anyone who would prescribe for a skinny person with LC
