Summary

Pravastatin, combined with maraviroc under the Patterson long-COVID protocol at an unspecified dose, produced no improvement in ME/CFS symptoms after starting around August of the prior year, by the time of a February 2023 post. The poster did note a small but noticeable decrease in their cytokine levels on testing, despite feeling no symptomatic change. They stated they tolerated the combination well and planned to continue the protocol for a full year before giving up on it. No illness duration before starting or severity grade is given, and no further follow-up beyond the one-year commitment plan is reported.
