My me/CFS started with Epstein Barr Virus 1980, then CMV 1986….so have suffered for many years, either bed ridden, chair / house bound Some days can go out for a sort time…Many doctor visits…but they offer very little help here in Australia…So get quite upset about the exposure and rhetoric around so called long Covid..and the help they are getting..I would not call it long Covid yet…I had to wait several years to be diagnosed with Me/CFS …
We can hope that long covid finally changes the health care system so it pays proper attention to post viral conditions, ME/CFS, chronic lyme etc. We shouldn’t underestimate the obtuseness of medical eminences though - I suspect we will have to wait for more retirements because it will be difficult for many established medical authority figures to change their minds and admit that they were wrong to dismiss the seriousness of such conditions and fail to devote proper resources to their study.
I will buy this book
why? Is it free?
@@MP-uo6qd I wish
I Hope this book will be audio due to this/my illness! I can’t concentrate enough to READ BOOKS ANYMORE except short reads!
