Anyone Found Help/Explanation for Long Covid Neurological Symptoms?

@julieilic This is a grossly irresponsible, inaccurate article. The author ignores all medical research and essentially provides a non-medical opinion based on opinion not medical facts. Sick Times' cofounder and executive editor, Miles W. Griffis, did provide a rebuttal pointing out that this article leads to gaslighting and dismissal of people with Long COVID by doctors, therapists, researchers, colleagues, and friends and family.

@onpainsufferer I agree that the article is substandard and irresponsible and it reinforces inaccuracies. Just about every day, I'm asked, "Are you feeling better yet? You shouldn't just lay around. Go get some exercise." And this is from friends who I expect more from. Even my PCP says things like, "You're just getting old. Maybe you should join a gym." His nurse said she'd never heard of long covid before I came in.
On a more positive note, I wanted to point out the latest news on the Health Rising website about long covid and ME/CFS research, "Major Study Validates a Long COVID Autoimmune Subset". Also, the ScienceDirect website has this article from Cell Reports Medicine ("Transfer of IgG from long COVID patients induces symptomology in mice").
