The similarities between long-haul Covid and post ICU syndrome are remarkable and not likely coincidental. I have had PICU for over a year with only slight improvement. I'm discouraged.
Any thoughts.
Thanks,
Charles

Hi Charles, interesting about the parallels between post-ICU syndrome and long-haul COVID. I hope you'll share your PICS experiences and support in the ICU group here:
- Intensive Care (ICU) https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/intensive-care-icu/

Were you in ICU because of COVID or another reason (if I may ask)? Are you a COVID longhauler?

As a doctor, Charles, would you agree that the best available preventative for long-haul Covid is prevention of covid-19 infection itself and the best currently available help against that infection is the shots now recommended? Or are there better preventative treatments available? It is tricky to base judgements on a personal experience because, unavoidably, one thing will always follow another.
