What has your specialist said about you seeing dietician? Have you asked or chased this up as you've been posting about 'waiting' to see a dietician for the last 3 years.Push for an appointment since your dietary needs are very much individual based on stage of disease, current dietary need and what caused disease in first place. BLT website still has good/updated info.

As regards covid, did you ever get information telling you that you would be eligible for anti-viral treatments? I know that my hubby and I had to notify local covid team and he got a 5 day treatment with molnupirivar. Don't know how the system works now and it does vary from area to area. GP should have info. or local health board website.

Hubby only got to see dietician when he went through to Edinburgh and was found to be malnourished. Info. we got may not be appropriate in your circumstances but little and often, snacking frequently, carbs and protein, low salt. I can send you info. via pm but it's for info. only as may not be what you need. Will send later as not on computer just now and that's where I have it stored.

All my conversation with a dietician was vague via a call. Nobody ever mentioned covid to me. I never tested for it, never had it or a vaccine. I suggest that you cut back on processed foods, salt and sugars. Eat smaller regular meals. Others might have had their own different experience.
