New here! Thank you Katrin for sharing your story. I’m had LC for last 4.5 years and only just this month got a formal diagnosis from a Rheumatologist after a lot of fight to be believed them to be referred to a consultant. I wish you well on your healing journey. I can tell you mine has been a rollercoaster ride of discovery!
Great interview, many thanks. Great to hear from someone who has been down this road discover so much about themselves, what they do want and just as important what they don’t want from life. Wishing you all the best Katrin 💃
Definitely appreciate hearing this recovery story! Thank you so much for this. I'm currently manifesting 100% full recovery from Long covid and this helped a lot
Medical system is absolutely usless in this situation, i’m having really hard fatigue problems after a tonsillectomy, before that it has been a very difficult year, lots of stress and as a result i started to be ill almost every month, until i had to do a tonsillectomy and then all my symptoms started, i’m on months 4 and i’m avoiding gluten and diary, i’m doing vagal nervr exercises and i’m doing a little better, but it’s still hard, can’t walk more than 1.5 miles without crashing hard next day. I hope to return to my baseline because this is a real nightmare
I'm a very laid back person, but still suffer from CFS flare up from 10 years ago, because I started exercising again and it caught me by surprise. My HRV is tanking, so I'm focusing on improving my HRV by resting a lot and WimHof breathwork, meditation and cold plunges. I also have leg compression therapy. I'm taking a week rest and will then make a new work out schedule. I will eliminate all exercise that brings my heart rate above 110 bpm. I've been brain training myself for the past 20 years and that approach doesn't work. A physical, heart rate based approach helped me 10 years ago and will help me out again this time. My garmin watch is measuring my stress level 24/7 and will warn me when i need to take a break. My watch will warn me BEFORE I feel fatigued. To each their own. But as a therapist myself I can say that CBT will help a lot of people. And positive thinking, challenging anxiety.
Her story is like mine, my breathing went in sept 2020 tho, now almost better just a fatigue deep down i cant really explain. Cold showers are helping i think
This just pisses my off. I was treated the same way many times. I promised myself if someone would talk to me like that ever again I would let them know my crazy side. My new doctor knows now that they cannot fool or mess with me or I will take legal actions. Yes, I developed a bit of karen trait after my experience. In this instance its okay to be a karen😅
Hey there! I'm happy to pass your message along to Katrin, but please keep in mind that some guests find the spotlight a bit overwhelming. Thanks for understanding!
Like Katrin, I went to the ER twice with unbearable neurological pain...the first time it was in my neck and upper back/shoulders. I was told I had arthritis even though every time I tried to stand, I thought I was going to pass out. The second ER visit (months later) was when I had severe neuropathy in both feet and could barely walk. I was told that nothing showed on X-rays and lab work. So...while the doctor thought I had some type of health problem, he had no idea what it was... and given "it was unlikely to imminently kill me", I was sent home. My own family clinic wrote me off as likely having some kind of mental health issue. On my worst days I used to go to bed and pray I would die in my sleep. At a point, I gave up on traditional MDs and turned my attention to the Naturopathic world and RUclips channels such as this one, where I got much better advice and some empathy, encouragement, hope and practical advice. Many thanks.
Omg I know exactly what you mean. The shoulder and neck pain I had was unbearable. I can remember thinking that if I end up coughing or sneezing, I am going to pass out from the pain. I, too, at night would have these crazy tremors and convulsions rip through my body and all I could think every night was that I was going to die in my sleep, but I was at the point that I didn't care anymore. Doctors are clueless of what plagues all of us. It's sad.
Hi, waw our names are almost the same. I am Katrien from Belgium :D I already improved a lot of my dysautonomia symptoms but I am still working on the last part of my recovery. These interviews always give me hope. Thank you both!
Hello from a Sarah from Belgium 😀🤗 so happy to see someone Belgium talking with Raelan. It's gives even more hope for recovery, is it just me but I do think sometimes when people from other countries recover and share their story that it must be something to do with the programs of the country. I know. It's stupid. How closer by the more I believe I will talk with Raelan one day to ❤❤
I'm just about to start a Brain Retraining therapy and this interview with Katrin was very helpful. (As is this wonderful channel which has become so valuable to those of us with chronic conditions). I've had Long Covid for almost 2 1/2 years and have only been getting worse no matter what I've tried. So many of us come to brain retraining after having tried many other things and it can feel like "our last hope." And that can put a lot of pressure on us too. I'm starting the preliminary techniques before I do my course, and I'm absolutely sold on the concept. I know that this works, that if it has worked for others it can work for me, and the theory makes sense to me. But of course we've lived with "everything going wrong, disappointment after disappointment." Long Covid/CFS can be like a hope-crushing machine. So to engage in a program that requires you to "believe" you can get better can feel like walking this mental tight rope over the canyon of worry and doubt. That's why it was so nice to hear Katrin mention her fears and doubts too, even while embarking on the brain retraining. And that of course many can have doubts and it still can work. Thanks Raelan and Katrin !
Thank you Raelan! Btw, I would love to see you discuss the issue of how to adjust life after recovery. I’m thinking, especially of folks who recovered from long Covid. So For instance, in my case, Like most people, I spent the pandemic trying not to catch Covid, masking, etc. Then Omicron came and everyone got it. And that, Combined with the fact, most of us had been vaccinated by then too, seemed to be the point where everyone went back to regular life again. But those of us who got long Covid continued to live the pandemic restrictions. I certainly didn’t want to get Covid again while I was still trying to get over long Covid, And it was all over the news that if you were suffering from Covid, getting reinfected very often made you even worse. So I’ve continued to mask and puppet places where everyone else I know was back to regular life years ago. I often wondered how I would react if somebody snapped their fingers and cured me immediately from Covid. How does one get over the trauma of the fact that a virus that left everybody else you know unscathed took away years of your life with one encounter? Even if you recover, I wonder how people manage to put aside their fear of reinfection and get on with life.
I hear you 🙏🏽 Just know that person meant well. They don’t understand so I guess we can forgive them. Too many Doctors still don’t understand LC which doesn’t help either.
I’ve been diagnosed with LOng Covid as been suffering from debilitating symptoms for 4.5 years and I did not get the jab. It’s possible to get LC with or without the vaccine. The proteins in both (same type) can real havoc in the body (multi organs) and affects everyone differently although some common symptoms but also can rehash previous tenants of viruses that remain in our cells.

Ugh, that's so infuriating, being dismissed when you're sick and desperate for help! 😡
Hi Realan, I m from Belgium too and suffering from LC for more than 2 yrs now. Could you get me in touch with Karin? Tx
Me too. I would like to get in touch with her as well. Suffering for 4 years
Me too ❤

Seeing another doc - funcational high hopes. 40% recovered from vaccine should be much higher. It almost killed me.

My mum had this kind of pain too after her jab

👽👽👽Hi... Many viruses embed in DNA, & come back later. You can retrain using frequencies in meditation...
completely bonkers what you wrote
I have just literally had someone say be positive and u will be ok.....🙄🙄🙄
I hear you 🙏🏽 Just know that person meant well. They don’t understand so I guess we can forgive them. Too many Doctors still don’t understand LC which doesn’t help either.
Very good interview! Très bonne entrevue Katrin!
Nice interview! Thanks for sharing how successful your recovery was with Brain Re-training, Katrin! It's my last hope too! Blessings to you both. 😊🧡🙏
🧡 🧡 🧡
Has anyone has done the electroencephalogram ti scan brain activities with poor results before recovery?
Make another top 10 or top 5 video. Top advices or top tips
Amazing! So glad, that you feel better. I did the same program, but it didn‘t work for me. It is overpriced I think.
Let‘s be real long conwid is blsht,it is waxxx injury🤡
