1/3 #Longcovid#COVID#covidlonghauler
Things I wish Doctors would say to me:
I’m sorry you are feeling like this.
I’m going to explain why I think you are experiencing each symptom and if we don’t yet know why I’ll say that too.
2/3 I’m going to help you consider the treatment available for each symptom where I can
I want to keep track of your recovery so will see you again in xx weeks
I’m going to be researching the latest science and treatments to help you and my other Long Covid patients
