"Long Covid has affected people of all ages and backgrounds.

For many, it means navigating persistent symptoms that disrupt work, family life, and everyday routines.

For others, it has been the start of a much longer journey with infection-associated chronic conditions, including illnesses like ME/CFS and related disorders."

💙 It's May 12th, International ME/CFS Awareness Day 💙

My ME/CFS onset was in Jan 1990

🚨 Many recent ME/CFS cases have been triggered by COVID 🚨

In this thread I plan to post about 3 main things:

1. My ME/CFS story (briefly)

2. Helpful resources for patients and clinicians

3. Advocacy options for patients & allies (friends/family) - mostly US based
