The Nicotine Test -- Citizen Science Project

The Nicotine Test -- a patient-led research project to evaluate the benefits of the nicotine patch for people living with #LongCovid. #TheNicotineTest #LongCovid #MECFS

8. (this is quite recent): Nicotine protocol, followed by choline supplementation. I felt quite unsure about trying this until my doctor brought it up without any prompting from me, and the last few months after doing it have shown sustained baseline improvement, like holy wow I can drive?!?!

I found the patches remarkably effective in combatting the worst nausea when cannabis was unaccessible or unreliable (edibles instead of vape/smoke). Vv grateful to have found/followed this work before exiting Xitter. (Nausea is rarely an issue now, 2.5yrs into treatment/adaptation.) #pwLC

It took 21 months... but we made it! Real data on Low-Dose Nicotine patches for #LongCovid and #MECFS is finally out! 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳 I am proud to say that the first low-dose nicotine patch survey (n=231) has been published as part of a collaboration led by Dr Leitzke 👀👀👀👇⬇️ rdcu.be/ebsNX

Viel trinken. Ehrlich gesagt glaube ich nicht an die Theorie mit den freigesetzten Spikes. Es gibt ein Paper, die haben versucht, Spikes an diese Rezeptoren zu binden, die gingen da gar nicht so ran. Nikotin stimuliert das Immunsystem. Das ist irgendwie kaputt und braucht einen Anstoß. Denke ich.
