Mein Sohn, fast 15 J alt - vor 3 J erkrankt an #MECFS - verliert die Geduld und die Kraft, diese schreckliche Krankheit weiter aushalten zu können.
Es ist zum Verzweifeln!

From a study in Australia, "almost two-thirds (62.5%) of the Long COVID participants also met the diagnostic criteria for Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS)..
on standing, average heart rates rose by 46 beats per minute in the POTS group and 35 beats per minute in the Long COVID group, compared with just 13 beats per minute in healthy volunteers.
In Australia, around 800,000 people are living with POTS[, which] is a complex and often misunderstood condition affecting the system that controls automatic body functions such as heart rate, breathing and digestion.
The impact of POTS and Long COVID on everyday life was significant.
Almost 6 in 10 (58.3%) Long COVID participants had been unable to return to work following their infection, while just 4.2% of participants with POTS were engaged in full-time work or education."
Please take good care of your heart.
