I truly believe we are well on the way to calling post-Covid syndrome a brain injury.
Absent specific, quantifiable tests for these things, it takes a long time to define, document & systematize illnesses. The second complication is that long-Covid manifests in thousands of different ways. The third is that there is not a good agreement on how to document that the symptoms were caused by Covid, and were not a coincidence.
I'm sure most people who are just struggling to get through the day don't want to hears this, but agreeing to participate in post-Covid research might help.

Best wishes to each of you for a full recovery.

I think research will help. I’ve tried to donate plasma and get into multiple studies and they are all full. It is a weird coincidence that after having Covid living my life is not possible. When before I was an obese, casual smoker with controlled high blood pressure. I did multiple 5ks had a full time job went to happy hour twice a week, hung out & kept up with 25-30 yr olds. Now I spend my days scared, filled with anxiety, using a Cpap forgetting to flush the toilet, not making it to the bathroom because I was distracted on my way there, no interest in sex, or the energy to do it, or climb stairs or anything for that matter. Coindence. NO. After effects of Covid 19 double pneumonia untreated because it’s not anything because 1/2 the country doesn’t think so. YES. These comments are what are making us all insane. Thanks for your well wishes though.
