New issue of RECOVER (a somewhat infrequent update on Long-Covid and similar maladies) covering research findings. I suggest that anyone with symptoms of Long-COVID, CFS, etc. consider subscribing. Take a look at the current issue and see if it is of interest:

@dlydailyhope @froggiiii @angiejones and @joanland I have never been diagnosed with Long Covid although I do believe I have had it twice - once undiagnosed and the second time (which “officially” could be thought my first time) diagnosed by testing positive.

The first time that I now (as in recent months) suspect I had Covid was when I woke up very sick on January 1, 2020. That day I remember so well, because I woke up feeling like I had the worst case of flu I had ever experienced! I couldn’t get out of bed for over a week, and still have a lingering cough that has no apparent cause now. Previous to this I was at the hospital for a week, visiting a friend struggling to recover from post op complications to which she succumbed.

In March 2020 Covid became a reality. I have often wondered if my friend got Covid in the hospital in early December when it was still unknown, or there were people in the hospital suffering from Covid but no one was aware of this at the time, and I of course may have caught it …? Who knows. 🤷🏼‍♀️ All I know is I have never been this sick in all my (then 73) years!

Since then, I also tested positive for Covid in July/August 2022.

I have often wondered if Covid was around a few months before it was made official.

@suefish pretty well into journey but it IS TOUGH. About a year-and-a-half in and still confused. Good to have this company.
