Potential long Covid treatment

Patients with long-term COVID-19 symptoms who are exposed to hyperbaric (high-pressure oxygen) therapy (HBOT) intensive show a significant improvement in cognitive, neurological and psychiatric functions.

I had HORRIBLE neurological symptoms after Covid. Psychosis, physical anxiety, twitching and burning sensation in the scalp and heart. In the early days HBOT was the only thing that helped move the needle towards healing.

They opened one of those oxygen centers near me. You show up and go into an oxygen chamber. Is the suggestion to do that post covid or during covid to avoid long haul or is it meant to treat it when you discover you have it?

The first of its kind in the world, the study introduced a promising treatment for long-term COVID-19 symptoms based on advanced HBOT. Long COVID, which affects as many as a third of patients who were infected by the COVID-19 virus but weeks or months after they recover is characterized by a range of debilitating cognitive symptoms such as inability to concentrate, brain fog, forgetfulness and difficulty recalling words or thoughts. These symptoms continue for more than three months and sometimes up to two years.
