@visible_health@KiActiv 🚨 Nope. Too much Moderate movement across the day on Thursday...
...so the #EliteHRV and #KubiosHRV apps are signalling a #ParasympatheticSwing 🚨
EliteHRV literally shows me the Parasympathetic Swing - The very high Heartrate Variability (HRV) and low Resting Heartrate 👇
The Toll of Pediatric Long COVID
An Infectious Diseases study shows children with long COVID face a symptom burden that meets or exceed other chronic health conditions. These children report worse fatigue and sleep issues than kids with cancer or autism.

Good news for mangrove forests! 🌳
Mangrove forests, which had been shrinking for years, began to expand in 2010. A new study using Landsat observations reveals forest gains accelerated in the past decade and have nearly offset earlier losses.
Warning signals are everywhere. The past 11 years have been the 11 hottest on record.
In his #WorldEnvironmentDay message, @UN Secretary-General @AntonioGuterres calls for action #NowForClimate to cut emissions, protect nature, support vulnerable communities and speed transition to renewable energy.
Andy Burnham says he "can't judge" if the Israeli military's crimes in Gaza are a genocide.
The experts already have.
A UN commission, the International Association of Genocide Scholars, and leading rights orgs all agree: it's genocide.
Andy, why won't you call it what it is?
7 hours at work, but only three 1-hour-long lessons to teach today, so #pacing was easier than usual.
Well-behind today's @visible_health pacesetter and genuinely no physical exertion at all 😊
And I get to leave work early on alternate Fridays 🙏
#LongCovid#LongCovidTeacher
Started today fully 'Reset' and with @visible_health 'Stability', plus with #EliteHRV and @kubiosHRV also noting my 'Readiness' for Wednesday, along with perfect 'Balance' between my Sympathetic and Parasympathetic Nervous Systems 👇
All looked great 🤔 ...
@visible_health@KiActiv@kubiosHRV So I just had a cheeky 25-minute #PowerNap (on top of my full night's sleep).
Just one of the many tools I'll be using today to hold myself back from over-exerting my #LongCovid body during this pre-cursor to a potential #Crash🙏
It's quite empowering to have worked this out 😊
Excellent, very generous and detailed response thread by Dr Rae Duncan @Sunny_Rae1 detailing Long Covid research findings to date. It's worth reading for its own sake.
@hannahspierMD 2/PEM - isn’t tiredness is impaired metabolic recovery with clear demonstrable abnormalities on 48hr submaximal CPET testing. I’m a member of the executive committee of the International Society of Long Covid & PAIS (ISLC). My research colleagues from the same group have 2/
@hannahspierMD 1/Hannah, we have now almost 500,000 peer reviewed published research into long covid now. “Fatigue”, “post exertional malaise (PEM)” “Brain Fog” “difficulty concentrating” are not psychiatric symptoms. They have a pathological basis and clear demonstrable abnormalities 1/
This rebuttal is brilliant, detailed, compassionate, intelligent, science based, and thorough.
The precise opposite of the statement she's replying to.
Please read, share, share, and then share. And also share:
Looks rather ominous the deepening low out over the Atlantic heading for the UK. Fortunately it weakens heading east tomorrow, but still brings a risk of coastal gales to southern Ireland and SW UK tonight and perhaps along English Channel coasts tomorrow. Also more rain for many
@visible_health@KiActiv@kubiosHRV If I'm not careful, my extreme 'readiness' will lead me into a false sense of security.
During a Parasympathetic Swing I feel invincible & 'Normal' again; bounding up staircases, not bothering to take the lift (elevator), jumping around the classroom with boundless enthusiasm...
@visible_health@KiActiv ...& as ever during a Parasympathetic Swing, the @kubiosHRV app 'rewards' me with a ridiculously high Readiness figure.
This is because Kubios compares this morning's (ridiculously high) check-in HRV with all of my previous morning HRV values.
Stand-alone it misses the point 🤔

I'm so proud of Sarah and the Green Party.
When the 50 wealthiest families in the UK own more wealth than the bottom 50% of the population - don't tell us there's no money left.
Let's keep growing our movement:

We must be crystal clear about a few points. Long Covid is not a "poorly understood neuroimmune disorder" with no biomarkers. It is a widely studied biological medical condition. Pathology spanning basically all body systems is well documented, with damage in situ across organs
