I’m so sorry you’ve had these symptoms for over 17 months! Does Mayo treat for Long COVID? Are you eligible for disability benefits? I’m considering that route if my symptoms don’t improve in the next month as my symptoms are really making my job difficult… then I get exhausted from the stress and frustration not being able to perform at peak. ✌️🌻

Luckily through my job, i had short, then long term disability. They did have me apply for Social Security disability, but I was denied. They say everyone gets denied the first time. I have an attorney helping me appeal it. Also, when I was attending the Pain Rehab clinic at Mayo, the long term disability company called out of the blue and said they determined I’m not disabled anymore and quit paying me that day. My family did research on the company, Unum, and they are notorious for declining people with valid claims. There is a class action law suit against them, so now I have a different attorney helping me there. They make you feel like a deadbeat trying to work the system, when I would love nothing more than to feel better and be able to go back to work. This certainly is not a life anyone would pick.
