I wonder if they would've felt the same if his mother was predisposed to having too many glasses of wine with dinner. It feels like a third of Boomer couples I know are functional alcoholics. Way too much enthusiasm for wine, wineries, wine tasting, etc. for it to be healthy.

I went on vacation, had a great time, then got COVID, and came back a completely nonfunctional wreck beset by random adrenaline dumps, heart palpitations, spontaneous panic attacks, and wicked insomnia. The condition lasted almost a year.
39 year old male. I was in great shape both physically and mentally before my trip.

Doctors are at complete a loss to "diagnose" long COVID. There are only a few places which specialize in it, and even then I think they're probably grasping at straws.

This makes sense. I would've been marked as a "no show" because I had to rescind a job offer because of long COVID which lasted a year. From the government's point of view I was just an unremarkable figure prolonging my bout of unemployment when in fact I had a great job offer lined up that went to shit because I got COVID while on my little bit of celebratory vacation
The PVCs, adrenaline dumps, sleeping problems and anxiety/panic were insane! The doctor thought that my hypothalamus was inflamed because of COVID.
