"Article in unherd by Stuart Ritchie Kings college. Suggests it might just be all the mind...not controversial at all lol" I've read the article and that's not what he's suggesting. It's more complex than that. Hopefully this link is allowed. https://unherd.com/2021/06/does-long-covid-really-exist/ | |||

More the complications bought on from it. Therefore you wont test positive from a test once the virus has left the body? | |||

I've had no choice but to get on with my life. In a bid to get fit again rejoined the gym about a month ago.

"With long covid being such a new issue, and with some people getting it and others not (without there being common indicators to suggest a link) I think the big worry would be long Covid being treated with the same suspicion as fibromyalgia I know a guy from the gym (hospital worker) who is suffering from long covid. He was a strong lad, hard worker. He's put on his feet and cant see a way back to normality" well I think the difficulty is for some understanding the truth about how covid attacks the body. For me it felt like a herd of stampeding elephants rampaging through my body. Yes whilst many things will return to normal and fully recover many things will never be the same and the landscape has been permanently altered. I count myself fortunate that I can still discuss this, I lay awake some nights going over the week's I was unwell when I had covid and just don't understand how I was able to get through it and how the fuck I managed to stay out of hospital,but I think that was more down to availability of resources than choice. Many aren't here to have this conversation and I believe that people are genuinely ignoring the deaths of thousands of people just to satisfy their own agenda. | |||

Clearly not a chap to let things beat you, inspiring read and really wish you all the very best. Second thing a question (you may prefer not to answer as personal) - you were obviously very fit and it sounds like you ate a healthy diet. Are you aware of any underlying health conditions that may have made you more susceptible to Covid, and in this case more importantly, long covid? Just find this all so worrying and fascinating at the same time. Generally speaking it appears that the vast majority of people most impacted by covid have been old, obese or have pre-existing/underlying health conditions. It goes against common sense that fit and healthy people should be so adversely effected but there are clearly many examples of just that. We need to know why? | |||

"It’s like any syndrome, something diagnosed by how the person feels, rather than by any medical test, so yes it’s real and yes it’s in the mind, like many illnesses mine and body are interconnected. I’ve had flu, malaria and Covid and they all leave you weak and tired for weeks and weeks " I have a (luckily) very rare genetic syndrome which is most definitely not in the mind not anything to do with the mind. A syndrome is a set of medical signs and symptoms which are correlated with each other and often associated with a particular disease or disorder. Unfortunately the term syndrome, disease and disorder are often end up being interchanged and used wrongly. | |||

Following Covid I lost all get up and go, but still got out and did training (but nowhere near at the level I had). Finally went to see the doctor and Covid left me with diabetes and dangerously high blood pressure | |||

Symptoms of long COVID.
There are lots of symptoms you can have after a COVID-19 infection.
Common long COVID symptoms include:
extreme tiredness (fatigue)
shortness of breath
chest pain or tightness
problems with memory and concentration ("brain fog")
difficulty sleeping (insomnia)
heart palpitations
dizziness
pins and needles
joint pain
depression and anxiety
tinnitus
earaches
feeling sick
diarrhoea
stomach aches
loss of appetite
a high temperature
cough
headaches
sore throat
changes to sense of smell or taste
rashes
I'd suggest these (and of course Covid itself) are diagnoseable conditions.
I hope that helps.
