Experts say it could be a game-changer for those with long-term COVID-19 symptoms, called “long-haulers.”
“Fatigue is one of the major issues, shortness of breath, they may have dizziness, headache, joint aches and pains, they can have abnormal symptoms with their heart rate,” said Dr. Monica Verduzco-Gutierrez, who runs the clinics at University Health and UT Health San Antonio for COVID-19 long-haulers.
“Most of them were mild cases. I would say that in our clinic, 75% of patients were never hospitalized,” Gutierrez said.
