Question 1

Can COVID-19 infection lead to inulin failure?

Accepted Answer

Yes it can.  COVID-19 infection can trigger a concussion-like event which can worsen symptoms. After the infectious COVID-19 symptoms have cleared (cough, fever, etc),  I will give the child 4-6 weeks to begin recovery again.  If by 2-3 months, improvements have not begun, I presume there is inulin failure and move onto rifaximin.
