@Biff234523 This gives me pause: "as long as youβre feeling okay." My 1st ever infection was end of Aug. Minimal 'cold' symptoms followed by brutal long covid which very much persists 9 weeks later. I'm excited about the prospect of a Novavax booster, but wondering if I'm still too sick?
@aRealCapitalist@diannahaze Wow. I always thought with PEM the idea was to keep the heart rate down, but that's presumably when the reason is because of exercise - movement. The sauna's different. Amazing.
@aRealCapitalist@diannahaze "...spiking my HR in a sauna." This is fascinating. Can you say more? I have an infrared in my house and have wondered if it may be of use in some way.
@Riemerville@AMLOWN1 I don't know yet, because I literally started this morning. Helping to alleviate PEM would be amazing! Will let you know. Thanks again.
@Riemerville@AMLOWN1 I just started it and am taking considerably more. The dosage (it's in powder form; per scoop) is 3000 mg. Perhaps I don't need to be taking it twice a day.
Btw thanks so much for your posts; it's really heartening to hear when things are helping.
@Riemerville@AMLOWN1 May I ask what dosage of L-Taurine you take? Thanks!
Good to see that there's an upcoming study on it specific to long covid:

@DonEford Two questions:
1) How long to wait after (1st ever) covid infection before receiving Novavax again?
2) Previous Novavax Apr 2024 & Jan 2025. After the next one, should the one after that be 6 months hence, or 2? Wondering because the initial priming series didn't happen.
Thanks!
@Saffiya_Khan1 I think it'll continue be a trickle - not a dam. There's no motion to speak of at the level of healthcare providers, and many take their cues from them. The trickle as I see it anecdotally is that a FEW more people seem open to masking in airports/on planes - but nowhere else.
@DonEford I'm a first timer & would LOVE correct information.
"Rest 6 wks - 2 months" - but what does that actually look like?
I was planning on getting my third Novavax when it arrives this fall, but now should I wait?
And supplements - so many suggestions.
Advice welcome!
@SueEC999 Cults tend to disintegrate when they lose their leader & there's no reason to think this one'll be any different. Vance has the charisma of a potato & won't be able to garner the fealty that TraitorTot inspires. But the question remains, how much evil infrastructure will survive?
@OrpheusL I'll be listening to one of your contemporaries. Remember that awesome guy whose music you copied (very likely with his blessing!) the one who you named your kid after & who you also asked to be the child's godfather? (Happily, he said yes.)

@MarkRid31548165@EliotJacobson The old joke (r-e-a-l-l-y old - since the 80s):
"Thousands of years from now, when the Earth is a smoking ruin, there'll be two things still alive: cockroaches and Keith Richards."
@joshua_in_c When I was in hospital after a bike accident in '23 I listened to Emily Mayer's 7th a LOT. In that environment/state of being I think music can "go in" in a different way because we're so vulnerable.
I came out feeling as if I'd been listening to that work my entire life.
