The Olympic Committee should rename all the swimming races after skyscrapers.
400m freestyle becomes the Seers Tower freestyle.
800m breaststroke becomes the Burj Khalifa breaststroke etc
@katrinablank@polybioRF I'll pass it on. He's been sick 10 years or so but he's the type that has accepted his diagnosis & tried to live within his new boundaries rather than rally against it like many of us. He's tried a bunch of stuff but I'm not sure he's ever really sought specialist tests.
@katrinablank@polybioRF I have a friend with post malaria ME. I've never come across anyone else with the same trigger. Let me know how you get on with the Rapamycin ๐ค
21-year-old Georgina Owen took her own life after delusions caused by a vitamin B12 deficiency.
Now her father, Julian, is working to raise awareness around the importance of nutrition and testing for B12 deficiency. He says there is a major issue nationally.
@Aaronca11 Jesus man, that sounds like torture. I'm so sorry. What a fucking weird and horrible illness this thing is.
Did you hear about the girl with the B12 deficiency who killed herself? Just a thought.

Ever since COVID lockdowns, I've completely lost my sense of smell.
Humans need to smell lots of scents each day to keep our olfactory system strong. Lockdowns + mask mandates meant that my nose didn't get the training it needed to keep up with all the different smells.
โTheyโve had their lives completely demolished by this illness.โ
Millions are living with #LongCovid while society has moved on.
Former Team GB rower @oonagh_cousins developed #MECFS following Covid and had to retire.
@kirstler31 Sounds familiar. Mine would begin with a heart palpitation, then my body would flood with a toxic feeling, muscles would start twitching, mental state would collapse and I'd spend days in a wired but exhausted state. Was sure it was to do with my ANS so I'd take BBs & valium.
It just needed Brand to turn round and go, ah here it is "The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men."
@visionsbypsyche@dan_prick Have you tried taking them at night before bed? Wonder if that would help further?
If you have a link to a brand you use that would be much appreciated.
@visionsbypsyche I've been trying various things for this. Red Korean ginseng (hpa axis/cortisol levels), aspirin, steroids etc.
Will give this a try. Thanks for sharing.
@NayanUnfiltered@elonmusk You know that 'flu you're catching more easily' is probably Covid right. It's important to remember that the most virulent disease on the planet hasn't gone anywhere, despite us refusing to name it any more.
@InTheAssembly Wasn't @NoLimitGains saying how rich they were and how they only wanted to get to 1m followers and now they pull this subscription BS. What a total con.
Loads of people ill again. Coughing and spluttering all around. The minimisers say, well it is that time of year, and I'm like you were ill 4 weeks ago so I guess it's that time of the month.
Ofc I'm not allowed to say it's due to covid or I get eye rolls from everyone.
@BearLind_FIN Surely you see a lot more people sick these days. I had 4 different work calls today from different parts of the world and they were all sick. I'm not kidding.
