As to whether SIJ form closure can be obtained by Chiropractic: yes, & effective for those who sublux only occasionally. For those with hypermobility & constant subluxation & pain, relocation of joint seems temporary as joint ligaments are too loose & Prolotherapy might work...
The secret with #Prolotherapy is that the injured ligament must be diagnosed if the therapy is to be effective. I have written my tweets so that other doctors might teach themselves the principles of pelvic girdle ligament diagnosis, a method I invented...
I am completing a website where HIPPA compliant visits can be performed & wherein I can diagnose (only CA & HI) pelvic girdle disorder and the ligaments likely causal of chronic pelvic girdle and low back pain. If interested DM me at twitter or laurencebadgley@gmail.com.
As to Physiotherapy: I have found this to be too painful for persons with the problem. They need to start with Aquatherapy form of Physical Therapy.

SHOULD WE BE MEASURING BLOOD LEVELS OF THYMUS HORMONE IN LONG- COVID?
THYMUS HORMONES INCLUDE: Thymosin, Thymulin, and Thymopoietin. There are alpha and beta types of Thymosin.
PITUITARY PRO-HORMONE THAT STIMULATES THYMUS is not known to exist. Therefore, taking exogenous Thymus hormone would not be expected to cause biofeedback and Thymus dysregulation.

LOOSE JOINTS, HYPERMOBITY? Gravity is at play in these women with tissue variations. When joint are unstable the obvious compensation is “gorilla” muscles to take over lax ligament efforts. A wise Physical Therapist is key. Lots of dedicated exercise also.
LOOSE JOINTS INHERITED (-15% women) is normal. These woman’s have easier births & indigo-smart children. These women are often quite attractive and smart.
ABORIGINAL SOCIETIES
CHERISHED HYPERMOBILE
WOMEN BECAUSE THEY WERE SMART & PROLIFIC BIRTHERS. INTELLIGENCE GENES LIKELY GROUP WITH HYPERMOBILITY GENES & GENES FOR BEAUTY. MEN WANTED FECUND ATTRACTIVE WOMEN SO THEY SELECTED THEM OUT.

HYPOPERFUSION? Yes, maybe sympathetic nervous system dominance + decreased pituitary vasopressin causing excess free water elimination in urine ⏩️ decreased blood circulation of hyperosmolar blood.
COVID-CAUSED decreased blood volume of blood that is too thick might explain orthodtstic hypotension, POTS. Might also explain the wormy blood clots.
COVID-CAUSED diminished total blood volume might evoke sympathetic nervous system activation to prevent hypotension and prevent syncope. Diminished blood volume would be expected to deliver less oxygen to tissues ⏩️ fatigue & exercise intolerance.

TO BE GAY ON NOT, THE QUESTION? In ancient days of the mid last century, the proper medical terminology was “homosexual”. Homo is a Greek prefix for “man” such as used in our species name, homosapiens, I think. Along the way a new adjective/noun, a euphemism, was created, “gay”.
“GAYNESS” might be adverb. I don’t know, grammar not my long suit. In any case, Anthropologist of last century seemed to be of consensus that a fixed ~15% of the population was homosexual as a transcultural genetic characteristic of homosapiens. Indeed, genes direct hormones.
TO BE GAY OR NOT: THE “GREAT H & E DEBATE” (heredity vs. environment) is a dynamic that has ever lent unending entertainment and fascination to the study of the human condition & especially to the world of medical studies.

MCAS IN LONG COVID: is possibly etiologic via biomechanisms known about MCAS, HYPERMOBILITY (HS) & FIBROMYALGIA (FM). Persons with HS & FM commonly suffer MCAS. Reason has been theorized that mast cells reside proximate connective tissue.
MCAS, HS, & FM: hyperflexible connective tissue evokes mast cell degranulation. Reactive substances provoke proximate neural tissues. Some experimental data for this dynamic. It might be that those with long COVID & MCAS expression might have hypermobility (about 15% women).

IC CAUSE DISCOVERED: for years clinicians have been mystified by etiology of IC. Genes, microbes, toxins, & biochemistry have failed to provide insights. IC oft occurs in women who have Hypermobility Syndrome and/or IBS. These circumstances suggest that IC is a dysautonomia.
IC A DYSAUTONOMIA? parasympathetic part of autonomic system stimulates smooth tissues of bladder & bowel to contract/evacuate those organs. Over activity of this neural network is unmeasurable, as yet, in current medical sciences. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
IC CLINICAL DATA: hypermobile women are potentiated for developing pelvic girdle instability from loose sacroiliac joint (SIJ) ligaments & are prone to Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS). Dr. Afrin’s book explains MCAS. I published case studies of IC remission via SIJ fusion.
