Mayo Clinic Breather Study for people who test positive for COVID
I just wanted to pass this along. The Mayo Clinic is conducting a study using The Breather which is a breath training device. This study is specifically for folks that have tested positive for Covid. Here's a link for more info:

I just got The Breather because I feel short of breath a lot and trying to do the breathing exercises on my own wasn't working. I'll keep you updated when and if I see improvement.

2 ReactionsHello,
I'm curious if there is any update on this study?
Thanks!
Hello recovery patients,
I’m relieved to find a forum like this. I was recently diagnosed w Covid for the first time and was wanting to talk about it because my encounter with my PCP was unnerving. My PCP refused to see me and blamed me for being irresponsible for coming to see her. 🤯 flabbergasted. No remorse no apology, nothing. Thoughts?
