So much is happening that is not always obvious from the outside. But I'm optimistic that the next year is going to look very different from this one

Something that's striking to me about these psych angles on #LongCovid is that they seem to misunderstand psychology just as much, if not more than the biomedical

Imagine writing about a subject for the very first time in your entire life — & having the hubris to quote arguably the leading researcher in the field ( @VirusesImmunity ) & completely undercutting them with “ya but nah” in the very next line. Pretty unreal @grace_huckins @slate

@VicGovDH People should know that in many cases, "fatigue" = severe muscle weakness that you can't walk more than a few hundred steps, and "brain fog" = brain shutting down, loss of functions like reading, memory formation. Millions of people from 2020 overseas are still sick

First paper from the NIH ME/CFS Intramural study I know many pwME have a lot of feelings about this but as a newcomer - what it means to me to have a NIH-led study that presents antigen persistence, immune dysfunction and microbial dysbiosis as the pathophysiology of ME/CFS

Disappointing that 'cognitive training' is the only intervention listed here, when I've seen so many people improve their brain fog with other interventions (LDN, antihistamines, acetyl-l-carnitine, PEA etc). Not to mention how exhausting cog training is for someone w brain fog

Post-exertional malaise in #longcovid and #mecfs makes me so curious that in the depths of despair I thought I'm going to hang on no matter what just bc I want to be around when they figure out what tf it is.
