Let’s talk about the: “Paradigm Of Never Solved Chronic Illness.” 🦠

It’s been condensed into 6 things, but of course there are more working against those who are chronically ill.

We should not acquiesce to this paradigm if we want to recover out health!

#LongCOVID #pwLC

🧵 Image 1. Lack Of Government Acknowledgment

If you feel the government often downplays a pathogen or a chronic illness, you wouldn’t be wrong.

We have seen that for decades now. Those with HIV had to fight tooth & nail for many years to get a test & then treatments.

Since Jose @jcb_31416 has not removed his “interesting” post, let’s go into more detail about the flow of events.

Cause this is really how I wanted to spend my time today … 🤕

This Is Twitter (TIX)

#LongCOVID #pwLC #LC #LongCOVIDLand #TIX

🧵 This is a good starting point for people regarding Jose’s bad post, but there’s more. 🤕

Why he won’t delete it, no one knows.

There seems to be a view that's not being heard with regards to the term Infection Associated Chronic Conditions (IACC) & how that term can be a negative to those with #LongCOVID, & other chronically ill.

So I'm going to express that, & other things, in this thread.

🧵🧵 It seems like a good time to discuss this after Dr. David Putrino's thread from earlier today on the topic (whom I hold in high regard).

Why’s it easier to deny COVID is persistent? #LongCOVID #pwLC

1. Admitting COVID is persistent & causing #LC puts the onus on the government to solve the problem.

Not admitting or addressing that it’s persistent allows them to put the blame on you & your body instead.

🧵🧵 2. Admitting persistence means the government has to deal with it. If they don’t admit it, they can call it post viral nothing new & just have Long Haulers do what other chronically ill have done & they don’t have to develop new testing, trials, & treatments.

Remember this graphic when it was just #LongCOVID & #MECFS & it made it look like they were the same thing. Wellll …

I guess Long COVID, ME/CFS, #ChronicLyme, & Chornic #HIV are all the same thing based on this updated graphic.

🧵 Image What does it mean?

These chronic illnesses are all the same because of the similar problems? They’re mostly all chronic pathogens causing these issues? These three chronic pathogens are not really chronic & a problem, but instead are all immune triggered symptomatic syndromes?

What if I told you that at the Senate HELP Committee Meeting on #LongCOVID COVID viral persistence was mentioned 1 time & alluded to 2 other times BUT …

infection associated chronic illness, ME/CFS, & Post Viral triggered illness were mentioned 🥁🥁 37 times. That’s 37-3.

🧵 You might think, no way, that can’t be true!

But it is, but it is. I just rewatched the entire hearing & paid close attention & tallied it up. I did that because when I watched it the first time I could feel the unnatural feeling imbalance in the discussion.

More below.

What’s helped me most with my #LongCOVID? I’m glad you asked.

Here’s what has helped, what condition I was in at the time, & why I believe it helped.

Ranked in order of importance.

🧵🧵🧵 1. IV Ozone

When I was on death’s door I made sure that I found IV Ozone. I was pale, severely underweight, barely moving, couldn’t even use my phone, & seemed riddled with COVID. IV Ozone saved me & brought me back. Killed off chronic pathogens & made my blood less thick/dark.
