After 5 years I would happily trade only a 10% performance loss for the days and nights full of nerve damage pain (neuropathy)and what seems to be 30% performance loss
BTW very relevant to your daughter's story:
the first year of long-covid I was absolutely certain I had permanent lung damage and started searching everywhere for solutions
There are two possibilities that might be hopeful for her
The first is that it might not be permanent alveoli damage (which do not regenerate in humans) but rather obstruction from a "hydrogel" that forms during active covid and takes many many months if not years to dissipate entirely

The second is much more serious and not available in the United States except experimental trials for other diseases
2. "Inhaled Tissue Plasminogen Activator" or "Nebulised Rt-PA"

BUT there's something you can try right away
see this table of plasminogen activators

at the bottoms is Nattokinase and Serrapeptase
which are simple enzymes, you can buy Natto-Serra on Amazon and very very slowly perhaps over many months it might help her lungs (this is just a guess)
