Fantastic paper! Serotonin is stored in platelets (largest stores outside brain). We have noted significant platelet damage in LC. Damaged platelets will definitely not be able to carry serotonin! @dbkell @doctorasadkhan

Fatigue can shatter a person.

" ... in these diseases, fatigue is so distinct from everyday weariness that most of the people I have talked with were unprepared for how severe, multifaceted, and persistent it can be" @edyong209

@edyong209 I can not thank you enough. I feel seen.

I dont think people realize how much discipline living w #LongCovid takes, especially if you were previously a go-getter type. We have to constantly stop ourselves and say no to things we want to do, because they will make our symptoms worse. We have to miss out on life to live.

Today is International #LongCovidAwarenessDay

Thinking of those who are suffering with #LongCovid. 🙏🏽
I both care for people with Long COVID & live with the effects of it myself.
Mine is thankfully mild, but I’m still not 100%. As a physician, I still get gate-kept & gaslit.

Here is a terrific interview with @EricTopol in @FortuneMagazine by @cbarbermd

“Right now, we are long on mechanisms and short on treatment. That’s the summary of everything."

Grateful for his support of #LongCovid

@RachelStrohm @PutrinoLab This is v. v. cool - have you studied this??

[Sarah Luft @sarahaluft]

I wrote a guide on how to find help for #longCOVID in #NYC for @THECITYNY's MISSING THEM project. It’s packed with advice from New Yorkers + clinicians on talking with medical providers, joining support groups, finding joy on difficult days + more. 1/ https://t.co/9reInq0IUq

How I explain my #longcovid fatigue to the lucky souls who don’t quite get it…😉🤗🤗 #chronicillness #mecfs #HappyFriday

@MVGutierrezMD @trentgarrison This is where I am - I did not realize that I had Long-Covid and tried to push through last summer. Now PEM central.

[John K @j_b_kennedy]

Every morning I wake up and wish I felt the way I did before I got ill.

Every single morning.

#longcovid is like a prison sentence without a term.

You slowly get used to living within its restrictions. You do your best to stay positive. But you constantly dream of escaping.

[Katrina Veerman @kveerman]

@resiapretorius @PutrinoLab Thank you thank you for all the work you do. I will not give up.
