@EndemicPrepared Sounds like you’re describing executive dysfunction, which is something people with ADHD struggle with, but it’s not exclusive to ADHD
@1goodtern Friend of mine in her 60s told by doc she no longer needed to mask bc her immunotherapy for cancer was boosting her immune system. I tried to convince her he was wrong. She stopped masking, caught Covid, then had a heart attack a couple weeks later. Thankfully, she survived
@LauraKeeney@kelcsimpkins Definitely good to do, but just adding that my partner had a 7-day holter that showed not much and then stress EKG showed some issues. So good to use a variety of tools
@kelcsimpkins Next week he’s going in for an echocardiogram. I also want him to get a stress echocardiogram after that (I think doc will agree). Hope things are okay for your friend. Are they having exercise intolerance? That was one of the first LC symptoms partner noticed
@kelcsimpkins My partner (late 30s) started having chest tightness and some other heart strangeness post-Covid. Regular EKG normal. Stress EKG (where you run on treadmill during) suggested early stage of ischemia and BP shit up to 200. He was in good shape prior to Covid 1/
@1goodtern My partner had a cardiology appt yesterday due to post-Covid heart stuff. Everyone was either unmasked or wearing surgicals, despite the clinic website stating that masks were still required. BUT staff was thorough about wiping down equipment btwn stress tests. Make it make sense
@jubunnies In case you don’t have anything local, there are also a bunch of Covid Cautious FB groups; some of them are not location specific. Plus @covidmeetupscom is another good option
@jubunnies About a month ago, I joined a local Discord for Covid cautious folks that has both virtual and IRL hang outs and there’s always discussions going on in the Discord. I was feeling the same as you are and it has helped so much. I wonder if you have anything line that where you are
@elven_magick@NohaAboelataMD My co-worker took her brother in for chemo and no one but she and her brother were masked. She told me she knows it’s safe now to not mask, bc even cancer docs no longer mask. They are sending such a dangerous message
