Drug Trials

As of writing, I am not aware of any FDA approved treatments for Long Covid. Typically symptoms are individually treated, as part of a COVID clinic, or, like I do, duct taped team of providers.

Scripps Drug Trial

That said, I am aware of Scripps running a drug trial of a GLP-1 (there is a placebo group as well). The study was set up to be done at home, which is great for folks who are housebound, and there are a lot of them. More information may be found here: https://longcovid.scripps.edu

As of December 2025, the trial reached its threshold of 1,000 patients and no longer is accepting new participants.

Blogs

I am probably missing a few, but this is a start, and what I’ve found to be helpful to me. If you have a blog, I would love to read it and also add it here too if you’re okay with it (please reach out to i8w88bidw@mozmail.com).

Reddit Groups

I don’t do notifications on my phone for many things, including reddit. I’ll disappear for weeks occasionally (for my sanity). These groups have been very supportive for the most part. Relating to others has been great, but sometimes it does get depressing.

Long Covid Warriors is one I wish I was more involved with. The moderator is an amazing, extremely intelligent person, as well as so many of the folks who engage in the sub.

Podcasts

This is one area I wish I knew of more, but also get how it’s a huge feat to undertake. Hell, writing this blog using GitHub, a content generator, and a CDN took me 7 months to do, and I am relatively functional these days 🤷‍♂️

Mental Health Crisis Support

Living with a chronic illness, long covid or otherwise, is huge burden to carry. If you are in crisis, please reach out to support if you need it. In any life-threatening emergency across Europe, call 112.
