Five years ago, she got COVID.
By November 2021, she came to our clinic with disabling #LongCOVID symptoms.

Today, for the first time in years, she told me she feels closer to her pre-COVID baseline. Closer to herself again. 🧵 Image There is still no single cure for Long COVID or #MECFS, yet .

But that does not mean there is nothing we can do.

It did not happen overnight.
It took years of listening, adjusting, pacing, setbacks, medication trials, titration, and persistence -from both patient and clinician.

I received this message from one of my most impaired #longcovid patients … Sharing anonymously with permission …because this stories need to be told! “I had a doctors appt yesterday and I couldn't stop crying:( I am so embarrassed. All I could think about is that an entire year has passed since he told me that my life was going to change and I absolutely DID NOT believe him and here I am living mostly in bed, mostly homebound.
