I was waiting for that argument from BPSers of the mass media being suggestive. Corona deniers here already are using it (people die or get ill bc of anxiety). That's why I'm wondering if it really is helpful when celebrities, e.g. Alyssa Milano, are being so "visual" about it. It's good they...

With Mirtazapin (Remergil) I had insatiable cravings, real munchies like with smoking weed. I'd kept on eating even when my stomach hurt. Only in the beginning though, it lasted couple of weeks. I had stopped and started taking it again several times thoroughout the yrs and I can control the...

Especially with medical staff being in the risk group of catching it. I don't think many hospitals can afford their doctors and nurses being absent for weeks or months. During a pandemic.

This is exactly what it looks like to me. I was familiar with his background and role in ME history but have only been following his public communication for the last couple of months. He's provoking and laying baits for "crazy patients" to attack him and I wonder what his threads look like to...

Can Corona be exhaled through the nose? So assuming a Corona+ person isn't sneezing, can they spread it when they don't talk? I see the nose-free version in public transport and thought about mentioning it to them. But if I make them talk back to me I might put myself more at risk..

I think these are the people most terrified of Covid - why else the need to deny facts and the inability to tolerante ambiguity. It can only happen to others, to crazy ones or unhealthy people that don't do glutenfree yoga and take their vitamines and think positive or do whatever the right...

I can't help but to think he's trolling. Nobody can have a blind spot that big. Or he's trying to influence the narrative to separate long/post covid from ME.

COVID-19 patients suffer long-term lung and heart damage but it can improve with time Coronavirus patients recover faster if they undergo rehabilitation as soon as possible after coming off ventilators or leaving intensive care

This is such a good point that had never occured to me! I will use that next time sb wants to un-decondition me.

I still wonder why our leaders don't talk about Long Covid. By now, every health minister must know, for sure. WHO has addressed it. Many governments struggle to justify their lockdown rules due to seemingly "low" death rates. Wouldn't talking about long term health struggles a good point to...

Have you also checked meds? I got a strange taste from sleeping meds (it was either Zopiclone or Zolpidem, I dont remeber which one). I took them when I crashed and thought the taste was a crash symptom until I realized it was due to the med. The taste was bitter and metallic and just...

If the pandamic left people, e.g. in high impact areas like Bergamo, traumatized and they have trouble adjusting - isn't that "ptsd" or "adjustment disorder"? When I could go outside again after a long, severe crash, I do remeber feeling very surreal at first. I bought sunflowers on the market...

Who is telling them they'll die and by what? I've read the article in German but don't understand who exactly is giving out that prognosis.

Maybe they want to make clear that these post viral symptoms are serious. Not "only" chronic fatigue. Duh :rolleyes:

For constipation psyllium husk can help (BUT from what I know it's not for people with diverticulitis, gastroparesis etc. - so double check with other conditions you may have) Other things to induce bowl movements depending on what you can tolerante e.g. are sesame (tahin), espresso, quince...

Thank you! I didn't have any known contact so I guess it's still too uncertain.

Has anyone heard of this test and can this high specifity and sensitivity be correct? I'd still be interested in getting tested after having been ill in spring. https://www.cegat.de/en/diagnostics/corona-diagnostics/ Edit correction

As much as long covid might be a chance for ME research it might be a risk for the little medical access "we" have left if thousands of new patients are going to see "our" doctors now. When the 2nd Corona wave will hit in fall the first wave of long haulers will have met the 6months mark needed...

First time I see sensory sensitivity specifically being mentioned now in long covid! (in the Atlantic article) "sensitivity to light and sounds, and brain fog."

Not sure if that has been discussed before Virucidal Efficacy of Different Oral Rinses Against Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 "Several formulations with significant SARS-CoV-2 inactivating properties in vitro support the idea that oral rinsing might reduce the viral load of...
