• On Covid rants, my wife who got it after 1 jab back in July has been suffering long Covid since, improving but not right, smell and taste still off. She picked up the cold that's been going round a few weeks ago and it's floored her, at least as bad as Covid symptoms at the time. She's spent the last couple of weeks mainly in bed with real trouble breathing at times, apparently brought on by random adrenaline bursts that are a symptom bringing on panic attack style episodes, she's already well versed in panic attacks, being on long term medication for anxiety and depression (I'd recently brought up aiming to get off those as an aim for next summer), the history of blood clots in her family, with it killing her dad a few years back, really doesn't help either. We've had a few trips to doctors, walk ins and A&E, chest x-rays came back OK so now she's apparently one of the many people who look like they've developed ME from it. Woot.

  • Fucking hell, Rob, hope that isn't the case and the wife is on the mend soon... ♥️

  • Oh no, that sounds awful. Healing wishes to your wife, and yes, hope that's the wrong diagnosis of what's happening. :(

  • Best wishes from E15.

    A client of mine had long Covid, I saw him at the start of August just after he’d gone back to work a few months after catching the virus and a stint in hospital, he was a mess, hacking cough, out of breath after a short walk, tired all the time. I saw him today and he was back to his old self and 8kgs lighter too. I know it’s different for everyone but there is light at the end of the tunnel.
