I am in school, online and I have a clinical field placement. I asked for a remote placement, as they are out there. I have not had that. The students with disabilities at the University has been very helpful...that being said, the placement I am in is a different story. I do take medications to help with my fatigue, and other symptoms and I am able to go, however not everyday as I wake up sometimes feeling like I am poisoned, which I now know is inflammation and post-exertion malaise. People don't say to me, "I don't believe you have Long COVID."
It is subtle comments from a specific person involved in the placement that pretty much let me know that this person does not believe me. My M.S degree is on the line for the field hours. I am supposed to graduate in August. One day at a time...
(It does really make me angry though).

@diverdown1
Your thoughts and feelings are real and spot on
It is very unfortunate that even at this time, over 6 years after the pandemic, that there would be anyone who doubts possible after effects from COVID infection
Your concerns regarding your impending graduation are real as well and you should not be put into a less optimal position
Are there student services that might be available to help?
So great to be near completion of your program
Long Covid can be a spoiler for sure, and makes the path more irregular and uncertain, so if you have elements you can put in place to keep your autonomy and allow for degrees of happiness, you have to find ways to do so
Good luck on your path and sending positive energy to you

@diverdown1..I so recommend Dr Paul Anderson.I've been saying this for months.He KNOWS what to for inflammation.Not all will work for each individual.I started watching his online videos a few years ago...Started listening and doing what he suggested.All supplements.I'm just about out of the woods with this thing.Seriously.Was it his advice?IDK.But I'm still taking some of his mentioned supplements,and added a few more for specific targeting.He said "You probably won't need to take these the rest of your life".He addresses it all...to me he's #1.Anyway...Stay positive as much as possible.Sounds like you have a great job opportunity.Hang in there.Drink lots of water...LOTS.God Bless you.
