@hbomax If I'm paying the no commercials tier, I EXPECT ZERO commercials! Now I'm getting commercials between some episodes of my shows, notably Friends. It's absolutely infuriating to be woken up from sleep by commercials between the episodes I'm sleeping to!!
Healthy people lose about 7% of the blood flow to their brain when upright.
Two new studies show people with #LongCovid lose 30-40%+ of the blood flow to their brain when upright.

Interesting! I can’t help wishing that more of these sort of studies had been done on #ME patients who complained about the symptoms for decades, had never heard the word #POTS and were told they were anxious, possibly hysterical.
The picture comes together, HPA axis issues, pre-load failure, POTs for some, raised immune markers, SIBO-gut dysbiosis f-s, reactive HHV/Epstein Bar virus, reduced cortisol, inflammatory markers up, cell death proteins rasied, the picture of ME/CFS and LongCovid.
#MECFS is an instance of terrible inequity in healthcare.
Inequity so bad that the doctors aren't taught about the illness and there is hardly any research that could guide treatment even if a doctor wanted to provide it.
I don’t want to be sick, ever, let alone all the time, over and over. I definitely don’t want to shave years off of my life, or develop a disability. I don’t want these things for my family either. Yeah I guess I am pretty crazy for wanting to avoid Covid. #CovidIsNotOver
What does that mean?
- Get #COVID19 as few times as possible (none is best)
- Get lowest dose of virus if you do get it (masks, safe indoor air)
- Be as vaccinated as possible
- Recover properly
I believe that we will have treatments for #longcovid but not a total, one-off cure
If you have long Covid or know someone who does, I hope you’ll tell them about my books, especially “How to Be Sick.” I just got an email from a therapist with long Covid who said that book was being tremendously helpful. That's what made me think I should mention it here!

Kavanaugh would not have been confirmed if he'd told the truth about his plans for Roe.
Gorsuch would not have been confirmed if he'd told the truth about his plans for Roe.
Barrett would not have been confirmed if she'd told the truth about her plans for Roe.
