Welcome to the chaos and confusion of LongCOVID. I was infected in September 2020. This podcast is dedicated to sharing as many details as possible to find a common thread with the listeners. This episode is hard for me to listen to because I strive never to find myself in the same position. Like all of us living with LongCOVID, we struggle with a spectrum of symptoms varying in severity and frequency. I was a disabled mother, wife, retired nurse, and advocate. This is the first time in my life I could not envision my future. I felt powerless, confused engulfed in global pain. Absolutely alone, the doctors I trusted offered little to no guidance. I was so insecure. I have moved on now in so many ways. I’ve learned to disassociate from my symptoms. At times I cannot deny them. I’ve learned to live again rooted in ancestral living. How have I succeeded with pure desperation, intuition and determination. You too can learn to let your body lead. Find some comfort in not being alone. You are not crazy lazy or attention-seeking. You’ve found a friend and the beginning of a community. Welcome to Longevity for the Longhaul.

Dr. Roger Miller, a clinical psychologist at Aviv Clinics, discusses the treatment of long COVID and the importance of addressing the underlying cause of symptoms. He explains the comprehensive assessment process at Aviv Clinics, which includes evaluating cognitive and emotional function, brain imaging, and blood work. Dr. Miller emphasizes the importance of cognitive training and exercise, such as hyperbaric oxygen therapy, in improving brain function. He also highlights the significance of sleep and healthy habits in the recovery process. Dr. Miller encourages long COVID patients to believe in their ability to improve and seek support from others who understand their experience.
